Thanks for the video, this is just what I needed.

Thank you for that. I've managed to get mine set up for a job with a large chunk of cast iron and I've just almost finished the initial drilling of four 6 mm holes, and I'm currently going through up the sizes to 25 mm then boring to 35 mm using this positioning system. Now I know how to set it up it's easy. I have a later ToAuto touch screen unit which is rather different looking but the set up is the same. Bloody introduction manual is totally fucking useless!

Although my DRO is the same as yours but a different name I followed your instructions but it did not work. I eventually found that on mine each time you set a new SDM function you have to press enter afterwards. Your video did let me get my head around it though so thanks for sharing

Thanks for the instruction.

It does work, mine is a Ditron D-60 but they seem to be the same, really like to see more on this unit, really helped out, would it be the same if you wanted to mill a square pocket, and set 4 locations, the same way and just go to those locations or just mark the corners and record on paper?

Full form of SDM

Hi Keith Like all your videos very informative. Have a question I hope you can help me with. My DRO on my lathe has the tones or beeps as I press the buttons. HOW do I turn the beeps ON ???? It’s a SINO. But might be the same on other models, Any help would be greatly appreciated. Instructions are no help and neither is Hare and Forbes in Australia where I purchased the lathe from. I did see a video on Utube a long time ago on how to do it but at my age forgot, should have wrote it down. Regards Greg
