To calculate a value for T2 - required positional tolerance of threaded hole - enter the 3 known values.
Same principle applies for calculating any one of the other tolerances given the remaining 3.

To calculate values for T1 & T2 - required positional tolerances of holes with typical 60-40 split in favor of threaded hole - enter the 3 known values.
Greater positional tolerance is given to threaded holes as they do not benefit as much from MMC and because there is typically more tolerance build up in the process of machining tapped holes.

Convert 'square' +- tolerance zones to equivalent circular position tolerance. Enter total range of X and Y tolerance, not variation from nominal. Only works properly if X tolerance range = Y tolerance range.
To do a worst case interference check on existing parts/drawings enter all 4 values.
If interference is found it is indicated here. Amount of interference can be calculated by finding the difference between Entered and Calculated value for any of the 4 tolerances. In This case the potential interference at worst case is:
.556 - .530 = .026 .028 - .002 = .026 .500 - .474 = .026 .028 - .002 = .026
