Gosinto!

Not sure a value can be input on the position page but I know you can into the offset page, go into the built in calculator page input your # divide by 2 and transfer that value into the axis.

I do not recall exactly how but I know it can be done, do you have the manual?

Yes, values can be input into the OPER coord screen.
Just type the axis, the value and hit ORIGIN.
Like :
X2.185 -> Origin

But that still doesn't eliminate the need for a calculator tough.

Ok, could one go into calculator mode and then transfer the value all on the control keypad?
