Note on Tool Correction in G29 with Turntables (without Twist Axis)
When the moving assembly of a machine includes only turntables (no twist axis), it
is necessary to declare the tool direction vector IJK followed by argument TD after
function G26+ before describing the turntable movements, in order for the 3D tool
coorection (G29) to be taken into account.
Example:
G26+ IJK1 TD0/0/0 PC../../.. ...
...
8.5 Use in JOG and INTERV Modes
In manual JOG and intervention INTERV modes (after machining is stopped by
CYHLD) when the RTCP function is enabled, movement of the axis by the jog is
limited to a value such that no axis goes beyond the limit switches. Similarly, the
acceleration and speed of movement on the axis can be reduced so that the other
driven axes do not go beyond their limits.
In JOG mode controlled by handwheel, only the limit switches are controlled.
8.6 Restrictions and Conditions of Use
In applications with dynamic operators, certain restrictions and conditions of use of
the RTCP function must be complied with.
The dynamic operators that calculate reference corrections (E9500x: destination
operand) should not be declared when the RTCP function is enabled. It is necessary
proceed as follows:
- cancel the RTCP function (G26-),
- declare the dynamic operators,
- reenable the RTCP function (G26+ ...).
The other declarations that can be made with RTCP disabled are as follows:
- activation and deactivation of interaxis calibration by E9400x,
- declaration of an axis as servo-controlled or not by E9100x,
- activation and deactivation of dynamic operators 15, 20 and 21,
- homing.
