Description of channel parameters
P-CHAN-00014 | Implicit execution of the D command in the event of T programming |
Parameter | einrechnen_mit_t |
Description | For the tool number "T", the D command with the same number is implicitly executed when the T command is programmed. |
Data type | BOOLEAN |
Data range | [0; 1] |
Default | 0 |
Remarks | If P-CHAN-00014 is set to TRUE, programming of "T80" corresponds to the programming command "T80 D80", for example. |
P-CHAN-00016 | External tool management available in the system |
Parameter | ext_wzv_vorhanden |
Description | This flag must be set to 1 if there is an external tool management application in the system. |
Data type | BOOLEAN |
Data range | [0; 1] |
Default | 0 |
Remarks | - |
P-CHAN-00076 | Send tool life quantities of a tool to the tool management |
Parameter | tool_life_to_wzv |
Description | In the case of TwinCAT controllers, by default only the tool data is requested from the external tool management when external tool management is activated. To send the tool life quantities of a tool determined in the NC kernel to the tool management, the P-CHAN-00076 parameter must also be assigned the value TRUE. |
Data type | BOOLEAN |
Data range | [0; 1] |
Default | 0 |
Remarks | This parameter is used in TwinCAT systems only. The flag is evaluated only if there is an external tool management application (P-CHAN-00016). |
P-CHAN-00087 | Prepare a tool change in the magazine |
Parameter | t_info_to_wzv |
Description | Programming of the T command generates a message to the external tool management to prepare a tool change in the magazine (e.g. clean tool and move to change position). |
Data type | BOOLEAN |
Data range | [0; 1] |
Default | 0 |
Remarks | The flag is evaluated only if there is an external tool management application (P-CHAN-00016). |
P-CHAN-00103 | Save tool data on program start |
Parameter | d_clear_to_wzv |
Description | In the NC program, data of the current tool (e.g. wear parameters) can be modified by variable access (V.G.WZ_AKT.[i]...). For saving, this data is written back to the external tool management each time a new tool is selected. If a tool has been programmed in the previous NC program, D0 (tool cancellation) is implicitly requested on program restart. When this request is made, the data of the tool used last is simultaneously returned to the tool management. This makes sure that any possibly modified tool data is not lost. This implicit requesting of D0 can be switched by means of the P-CHAN-00103 parameter. |
Data type | BOOLEAN |
Data range | [0; 1] |
Default | 0 |
Remarks | No implicit D0 is requested on reset, i.e. the data of the tool used last is only saved the next time the program is started. The flag is evaluated only if there is an external tool management application (P-CHAN-00016). |
P-CHAN-00106 | Release of motion blocks on T selection |
Parameter | t_with_implicit_flush |
Description | For synchronisation reasons, waiting times during execution can occur during communication with an external tool management application when use is made of the T word. Due to the buffering effect of the NC channel, this leads to a situation in which a specific number of NC blocks relevant to motion that are programmed before the T word is held back. By setting the P-CHAN-00106 flag, you force execution of all motion blocks up to the T word. This consists of a "#FLUSH CONTINUE" (cf. [PROG]) implicitly triggered by the T word. |
Data type | BOOLEAN |
Data range | [0; 1] |
Default | 0 |
Remarks | The flag is evaluated only if there is an external tool management application (P-CHAN-00016). |
