Basic settings

Channel parameters, setting the default type

After startup of the control system, the default measurement type is valid; this is specified in the channel parameters via P-CHAN-00057 (messtyp).

To enable measurement travel in an NC channel with several axes with the measurement feed rate programmed via the F word, for example, in the channel parameter list P-CHAN-00057 (measurement type) must be assigned the value 1. The following measurement types are available:

Value

Meaning

1

Measurement travel (G100) with at least one axis,

measurement feed rate programmable via F word

2

Measurement travel (G100) with precisely one axis,

Measurement feed rate is specified in the ACHS_MDS list.

3

Measurement travel (G100) with at least one axis,

measurement feed rate programmable via F word

optionally with continued travel up to destination point

4

Measurement travel (G100) only with the maximum of three main axes,

measurement feed rate programmable via F word

5

Interruptible measurement travel (G310) with at least one axis,

jump via GOTO

measurement feed rate programmable via F word

6

Interruptible measurement travel (G310) with at least one SERCOS axis, jump via GOTO,

measurement feed rate programmable via F word

7

Measurement travel by moving on a fixed stop with at least one axis,

Measurement feed programmable through F-Word

NC program, switching over the measurement type

In the NC program, you can select a new measurement type at any time with

#MEAS MODE [ [<expr>] ] (modal)

By programming #MEAS MODE without parameters you select the default measurement type that is specified in the channel parameters.

Axis parameters

The following parameters must be assigned in the axis parameter list:

P-AXIS-00118

Axis can be used as measurement axis.

P-AXIS-00086

Stroke of measuring probe. Defines the maximum permissible deceleration distance for measurement.

P-AXIS-00215

Feed rate for measurement (measurement type 2 only)

P-AXIS-00114

Permissible distance to destination point if measuring probe has not been actuated (measurement type 2 only)

P-AXIS-00115

Inclusion of external signals

P-AXIS-00117

Reading in the measuring probe signal via the control system's hardware interface
