8.4.9 TEACH-IN
The "Teach-in" softkey is used to activate or deactivate the TEACH-IN mode; in this mode,
the axes may be moved manually and their position may be assigned to a block. When this
mode is active, the top of the editing window shows the position of the axes defined as
“visible” for the TEACH-IN mode. See
"8.4.6 Customizing the editor (general options)." on
page 173.
When TEACH-IN mode is active, it is possible to keep editing the coordinates of the axes
directly from the keyboard or they may be assigned the current position of the machine axes.
Both editing methods may be used indistinctly, even while defining a block. To define the
coordinates of one or several axes using TEACH-IN:
1 Move the axes to the desired position using the JOG keys, the handwheels or the MDI
mode.
2 In the part-program, edit the name of the axes whose position is to be defined or not select
any axis if you wish to define the position of all of them.
3 Press the [RECALL] key.
If an axis of the channel has been edited, the CNC assigns the current position of that
axis as the program coordinate. The axis is displayed in the TEACH-IN window.
If only the block number or an empty line has been edited, it inserts a block with the
position of all the axes of the channel defined as “selected” for the TEACH-IN mode.
If a character has been edited other than the axis name or the block number, it does not
insert anything and the cursor stays in the same place.
