Working with two
tool carriers
The MANUALplus 620 mirrors dimensions and converts operations if your
machine is equipped with two tool carriers (example: one tool carrier in front
of the workpiece, the other behind it).
The kinematics are based on the "standard tool carrier." You also define the
coordinate system in MP_worldCoorSystem based on the standard tool
carrier.
When entering the dimensions of tools for the "additional tool carrier," enter
them as if this tool carrier were arranged in the "standard quadrant."
You program operations with the "additional tool carrier" as if it were arranged
in the "standard quadrant." Because of the MP_mirroringAxes parameter, the
MANUALplus 620 knows the position of the tools. It therefore starts
mirroring, and because of the MP_convTblNr parameter, converting, if the
"additional tool carrier" is used.
Define in MP_mirroringAxes which axes, if any, are to be mirrored for this
tool holder. If mirroring is not necessary, then the entry is omitted. The tool
dimensions and traverse paths are mirrored.
MP_mirroringAxes
Axes to be mirrored for this tool holder
Available from NCK software version: 597 110-01.
Format: Selection menu
Selection: Key name of the axes to be mirrored
Default: No value, parameter optional
Access: LEVEL3
Reaction: RESET
Define in MP_convTblNr the number of the conversion table to be activated
when this tool holder is inserted (for conversions: see "Conversions" on page
1408).
MP_convTblNr
Number of the conversion table to be activated
Available from NCK software version: 597 110-01.

Input: 0: Do not perform any conversion
1: Activate conversion table 1 (file: conv1.hc)
2: Activate conversion table 2 (file: conv2.hc)
3: Activate conversion table 3 (file: conv3.hc)
Default: No value, parameter optional
Access: LEVEL3
Reaction: RESET
