62 HEIDENHAIN Technical Manual MANUALplus 620
Machine
Configuration
New: Kinematic configurations for rear-face machining
Additional kinematic configurations with a second workpiece spindle (S4)
and a second C axis (C2) were introduced for rear-face machining with
opposing spindle (See "Preconfigured subkinematics" on page 739).
New: Help graphics for "vertical, to the left of the workpiece"
The entire range of help graphics is now also available for vertical lathes if
the tool carrier is located to the left of the workpiece (See "Coordinate
system of the lathe" on page 137).
New: Dialog window for selecting files and directories
In the configuration editor (Machine parameter mode of operation) the paths
no longer need to be entered through the keyboard. For machine
parameters that require the entry of a path to a directory or a file, the
MANUALplus 620 displays a dialog window for selecting the directory or the
file.
New: Progress bar in the configuration editor
The configuration editor (Machine parameter mode of operation) now
displays a progress bar for the functions listed below if they take a long time.
The progress bar has a CANCEL soft key that can be used to terminate the
function ahead of time. However, this may sometimes lead to incomplete
files or an unsuccessful search.
• Saving help information to a file function
(DATA BACKUP soft key)
• Saving a data tree to a file function
(DATA BACKUP soft key)
• Search function in the configuration editor
(FIND soft key)
• GOTO function
Enhanced: Number system can be selected for numerical parameters
When editing a numerical value in the configuration editor (Machine
parameter mode of operation), you can now switch the number system. You
can choose between decimal (DEC), hexadecimal (HEX) and binary (BIN).
The current value entered is converted when the number system is
switched.
Enhanced: Editing of machine parameter subfiles
The function for loading machine parameter subfiles (LOAD MP SUBFILE
soft key) in the Machine parameter mode of operation was enhanced (See
"Machine-Parameter Subfiles" on page 383):
Soft key Function
Calls the function for activating/editing MP subfiles
The selected MP subfile is loaded and activated. The
parameters are effective immediately and can be edited in the
configuration editor.
The selected MP subfile is opened only for editing and is not
effective. For example, this function can also be used to edit
reset parameters in MP subfiles without having to restart the
MANUALplus 620.
