Cycle parameters
Parameter number for result?: Enter the number
of the Q parameter to which you want the TNC
to assign the first measured coordinate (X). The
values Y and Z are in the immediately following Q
parameters. Input range: 0 to 1999
Relative measuring path in X?: X component of the
direction vector defining the direction in which the
touch probe is to move. Input range -99999.9999 to
99999.9999
Relative measuring path in Y?: Y component of the
direction vector defining the direction in which the
touch probe is to move. Input range -99999.9999 to
99999.9999
Relative measuring path in Z?: Z component of the
direction vector defining the direction in which the
touch probe is to move. Input range -99999.9999 to
99999.9999
Maximum measuring range?: Enter the maximum
distance from the starting point by which the touch
probe may move along the direction vector. Input
range -99999.9999 to 99999.9999
Feed rate measurement: Enter the measuring feed
rate in mm/min. Input range 0 to 3000.000
Maximum retraction distance?: Traverse path in the
direction opposite the probing direction, after the
stylus was deflected. Input range 0 to 99999.9999
Reference system? (0=ACT/1=REF): Specify
whether the result of probing is to be saved in the
input coordinate system (ACT), or with respect to
the machine coordinate system (REF):
0: Save measuring result to the ACT system
1: Save measuring result to the REF system
