Measurement with and without delete
distance-to-go
 
 
   When command MEASA is programmed, the
distance-to-go is not deleted until all required
measured values have been recorded.
 
 The MEAWA function is employed in the case of
special measuring tasks where a programmed
position must always be approached.
 
 MEASA and MEAWA can be programmed in the
same block.
 
 If MEASA/MEAWA is programmed with
MEAS/MEAW in the same block, an error message
is output.

•
  MEASA cannot be programmed in synchronized
actions.
As an alternative, MEAWA plus the deletion of
distance-to-go can be programmed as a
synchronized action.
•
  If the measuring job with MEAWA is started from
the synchronized actions, the measured values
will only be available in machine coordinates.
 
 
   
 
Measurement results
 
for MEASA, MEAWA
 
   The results of measurements are available under the
following system variables:
 
•
  In machine coordinate system:
 
 
  
$AA_MM1[axis]
 Measured value of programmed measuring system on trigger event 1
   …  ...
 
 
   $AA_MM4[axis]
 Measured value of programmed measuring system on trigger event 4
   
•
  In workpiece coordinate system:
 
 
 
   $AA_WM1[axis]
 Measured value of programmed measuring system on trigger event 1
   …  ...
 
 
   $AA_WM4[axis]
 Measured value of programmed measuring system on trigger event 4
