Terms Defined:
A-P = Anterior – Posterior Axis Coordinate
M-L = Medial – Lateral Axis Coordinate
D_V = Dorsal-Ventral Axis Coordinate
Bregma = The junction of the sagittal and coronal sutures at the top of the skull (www.freedictionary.com)
Home = Zero Point of reference
Saved Offset = Distance Value added to axis position when the play button is pressed or when Routing mode is engaged.
Routing Resolution = This is the distance the drill will travel each pass until it reaches the D-V offset. The routing resolution is 0.05mm for each route.
Routing:
The routing feature is used to cut out a piece of the skull. The D-V routing distance is .05mm for each step. This means that if the D-V routing offset is .10mm it will take 2 passes to complete the route.

2: Press the Keypad button for the A-P.
A: Press the Clear button
