Definition of functionalities (P-STUP-00060)
The parameter "configuration.channel[i].path_preparation. function" defines the specific functionalities of the path preparation. So specific functions for tests or for performance reasons can be enabled or disabled (by non-setting).
Variable name | Type | Valid range | Dimension |
function | String | See the identifiers below. | ---- |
FCT_DEFAULT | The functions FCT_FFM | FCT_PRESEGMENTATION | FCT_SPLINE | FCT_POLY | FCT_CAX | FCT_CAX_TRACK | FCT_SEGMENTATION are available. |
FCT_FFM | Free form surface mode, #HSC [OPMODE 1 CONTERR 0.01], #HSC [OPMODE 2] |
FCT_PRESEGMENTATION | Linear pre segmentation in HSC mode |
FCT_SPLINE | #HSC[], AKIMA, B-Spline, G150/G151 |
FCT_POLY | #CONTOUR MODE[], G61, G261/G260 |
FCT_CAX | C axis processing, spindle is embedded in NC channel |
FCT_CAX_TRACK | #CAX TRACK, tracking operation of an axis corresponding to the contour angle |
FCT_SEGMENTATION | For dynamic segmentation of path contour, e.g. if curvature of a polynomial segment is very different. |
FCT_LIFT_UP | Automatic lifting/lowering of an axis ( Z[LIFT_START...] ). At the moment this function is not included in the default function range (FCT_DEFAULT) and has to be enabled always additionally. |
