Overview

Task

Some applications may require that certain zones of an axis position may not be approached temporarily during machining. This function permits the dynamic limitation of axis positions.

Properties/possible application

One possible application is to limit the motion range of an axis because of an obstacle within the working space of the axis.

This function is available as of CNC Build V3.1.3054.05.

Programming/activation

The zone limits are activated and defined in the PLC.

Parameterisation

The function is activated by using the keyword FCT_DYN_POS_LIMIT of the parameter P-STUP-00070.

Links to other documents

For the sake of clarity, links to other documents and parameters are abbreviated, e.g. [PROG] for the Programming Manual or P-AXIS-00001 for an axis parameter.

For technical reasons, these links only function in the Online Help (HTML5, CHM) but not in pdf files since pdfs do not support cross-linking.
