I have a Sino DRO on my milling machine. The last time I used it, it was functional. I went to use it today and the display on all three axis reads 000.000. When I move the quill or the table in any direction, the read out doesn’t change for any of the axis. Does anyone have any suggestions to trouble shoot this?

Apologies for stating the obvious (we have to start somewhere), but it is in ‘linear read’ mode and hasn’t been accidentally put into one of the other functions..?

I’m a novice hobbyist, (Obviously) can you tell me how to change modes?

Thanks for your time!

Normally they are cancelled by pressing the same function button to exit..

Is there anything displayed in the ‘function’ window or is that blank?

Does the unit run through it’s ‘self-check’ sequence when initially powered up?
