Overview
Task
Monitoring 3D bodies by defining workspace or protection areas in a cylindrical or polygonal form of a constant height.
Properties
Work space and protection space monitoring with tool centre point monitoring is possible with
- automatic mode in conjunction with:
 - Linear motion blocks
 - Circular motion blocks (regardless of orientation G17/G18/ G19)
 - Kinematic transformations
 - Polynomial contouring (monitoring interpolation points for the polynomial depending on dynamics and slope)
 - Helical motions
 - Reference point offsets with G92, G54
 - Cartesian transformations #(A)CS available as of CNC Build V2.11.2015:
 - active manual mode available as of CNC Build V3.1.3068.9: in conjunction with:
 - Exclusive (G200) or inclusive mode (G201/G202)
 - Kinematic transformations
 
Parametrisation and programming
The parameters of workspaces/protection areas are defined for a specific channel directly in the NC program by means of # commands.
Mandatory note on references 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.
