4.10 Set the operating mode and start programs
When you set the operating mode and start programs, you
define the behaviour of the SPC200 during the program
sequence.
Operating modes
The SPC200 offers the following two operating modes for
running stored NC programs:
Start/Stop mode
Record select mode
Start/Stop In the Start/Stop operating mode, the SPC200 is able to con
trol simple positioning tasks
on its own. Any synchronisation
with externally controlled processes necessary is supported
by the Programmed stop" (command M00).
Record selection The record selection operating mode supports close coupling
of the SPC200 with a controlling PLC. 32 NC records can be
retrieved through 5 digital inputs. Positioning commands,
positioning conditions and com−mands for setting the posi
tioning quality class are permitted in this operating mode.
Please note
The different operating modes of the SPC200 behave
differently during program processing.
Further information on the operating modes can be found in
the system manual for the SPC200.
