Manually operated machine tool display

A manually operated machine tool, comprising:

• a workpiece holder and a tool holder which are movable relative to each other so as to permit machining of a workpiece;
• a hand wheel connected to one of the workpiece holder and the tool holder so as to cause movement of the workpiece holder or the tool holder along a single axis;
• a display including windows and text each associated with and indicating positions of different axes of the manually operated machine tool which are manually adjustable;
• a memory storing configuration modes of the display including a stationary mode in which the windows and text provided in the display are each the same size and color, and at least one emphasis mode in which at least one of the window and text associated with one of the different axes of the manually operated machine tool is at least one of larger and a different color;
• and
• a processor having access to the memory and being communicatively connected to position sensors of the different axes of the manually operated machine tool such that position signals indicating the positions of the different axes of the manually operated machine tool are received at the processor,
• wherein the processor is configured to switch the display from using the stationary mode to using the at least one emphasis mode based on one of the position signals indicating that one of the different axes is being adjusted by manual operation of an operator such that the window and text associated with the axis being adjusted is emphasized on the display.
