I am using the LR32 system to rout 5mm holes for a Systainer cabinet to hold the Sys-AZ drawer units. The instructions are not very clear in terms of the hole distances from the front. It shows the front set of holes as 58mm from the front but does state if that measurement is to the centre or edge of the hole, or do I set the setting rod to 58mm. The second dimension for the rear holes is shown as 224 from the 58mm position, again is this to the centre or edge of the holes? Additionally I can not see how I can use the setting rods to achieve the 118mm setting that I need to achieve this as my side boards are 400mm wide and 58+224 = 282 therefore  400-282=118. The rods are not long enough to set them to 118.
I am at a loss as to how I can set the rail to the correct routing position using the rods. Any help or ides gratefully received.
 
Bruce - Many thanks for your answer - the video explained how to sort out my lack of knowledge and I will now be able to finish off my project. I am really enjoying the LR 32 system and am gradually learning how to use it and expand my woodworking skills.
Best regards
Ted
