2.5.5 Movement with an electronic handwheel
This option may be used to govern the movements of the machine using an electronic handwheel.
To do that, turn the left switch to any of the handwheel positions.
The positions available are 1, 10 and 100; they indicate the multiplying factor being applied besides
the internal x4 to the feedback pulses supplied by the electronic handwheel.
The machine has an electronic handwheel
Once the desired switch position has been selected, press one of the JOG keys for the axis to be
jogged. The bottom of the screen shows the selected axis in small characters and next to the
handwheel symbol.
When using a FAGOR handwheel with an axis selector button, the axis may be selected as follows:
• Push the button on the back of the handwheel. The CNC select the first axis and it highlights it.
• When pressing the button again, the CNC selects the next axis and so on in a rotary fashion.
• To deselect the axis, hold the button pressed for more than 2 seconds.
Once the axis has been selected, it will move as the handwheel is being turned and in the direction
indicated by it.
The machine has two or three electronic handwheels
Each axis will move as the corresponding handwheel is being turned according to the switch position
and in the direction indicated by it.
When the machine has a general handwheel and individual handwheels (associated with each axis
of the machine), the individual handwheels have the highest priority; i.e. when moving an individual
handwheel, the CNC will ignore the general handwheel.
