I have a Bridgeport J head that came with an old Heidenhain Pos-E-Touch digital readout. It is a 2 axis unit which controls the X and Y axis. I cannot get the Y axis to zero out. When I turn it on, all the digits display all 888888's. According to the manual, it is supposed to do that. If I turn the table handle and move the X table it will display correctly the distance I moved the table. If I then hit the X button on the DRO display, and then the clear button it zeros out. If I do the same thing with the Y, it does not. It almost seems like it is saving a dimension. I'm not that well versed on DRO's so it has me stumped on how to get that y axis to zero out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
