526 Test Run and Program Run
16.4 Program Run
Programming of noncontrolled axes (counter axes)
The TNC automatically interrupts the program run as soon as an axis
is programmed in a positioning block that was defined by the machine
tool builder as an open-loop axis (counter axis). In this condition you
can move the open-loop axis manually to the desired position. In the
left window, the TNC shows all nominal positions programmed in this
block. For open-loop axes the TNC additionally displays the distance
remaining.
As soon as all axes are in the correct position, you can use NC Start to
resume program run.
U Select the desired axis sequence and start each with
NC Start. Manually position the open-loop axes. The
TNC shows the distance remaining to the nominal
position in this axis (see “Returning to the contour”
on page 532).
U If required, choose whether the closed-loop axes are
to be moved in the tilted or non-tilted coordinate
system.
U If required, move the closed-loop axes by handwheel
or with the axis-direction buttons.
This function must be adapted by your machine
manufacturer. Refer to your machine tool manual.
