    ON pg 16 of the FIN mib draft we define head location as follows. I think
    we meant to say parallel to the Process Axis, not perpendicular.

     finHeadLocation(13), Integer32 (-2..2147483647)
             INTEGER: MULTI-ROW: Defines the position of the Head
               Mechanism relative to the axis, 'X' or 'Y', that is
               perpendicular to the Process Axis. The units of measure
               are defined by the attribute finProcessOffsetUnits.

    Also, I'm not sure we ever thought of this... but is head location
    intended to represent the CENTER of the operation? Example, for hole
    punch, center seems to be the natural conclusion. But, for staple, top of
    bottom of staple might be as natural (or better) reference than center.
    Anyone with any experience related to this?
