December 2001 Datum Shift 6 – 399
6.20 Datum Shift
With the datum shift function you can offset the defined datum point.
The same initial position must apply for the description of the machine
geometry via MP7510 and following (See "Tilting Axes” on page 6 – 52) and
the datum shift.
You can activate the datum shift during an M/S/T/Q strobe.
Datum shift with

7 In D528 to D544, enter for each axis the distance by which the datum is to
be shifted, or use Module 9230. For axes 6 to 9, use only Module 9230.

7 Activate the datum shift with M4132. After the datum shift the NC resets
M4132.
The offset is calculated into the position display — the display now shows the
position values according to the shifted coordinate system.
Example:
Actual value display for X axis without datum shift = 50
Shift value in D528 = +20
M4132 is set, i.e., datum shift is active
New actual value display X = +70 (the old datum receives the value 20).
Module 9230 Datum shift
With this module you transfer the axis and the amount by which the datum is
to be shifted.
M4132 is set when Module 9230 is called. After execution of the datum shift,
the NC resets M4132.
