Protection zones
4.2 Activating, deactivating protection zones (CPROT, NPROT)
Job planning
4-4 Programming Manual, 03/2006 Edition, 6FC5398-2BP10-1BA0
During definition of the protection zones
• no cutter or tool nose radius compensation,
• no transformation,
• no frame must be active.
Nor must reference point approach (G74), fixed point approach (G75), block search stop or
program end be programmed.
4.2 4.2 Activating, deactivating protection zones (CPROT, NPROT)
Function
Activating and preactivating previously defined protection zones for collision monitoring and
deactivating protection zones.
The maximum number of protection zones, which can be active simultaneously on the same
channel, is defined in machine data.
If no toolrelated protection zone is active, the tool path is checked against the workpiece-
related protection zones.
Note
If no workpiece-related protection zone is active, protection zone monitoring does not take
place.
Programming
CPROT (n,state,xMov,yMov,zMov)
NPROT (n,state,xMov,yMov,zMov)
Parameters
CPROT Call channel-specific protection zone (for NCU 572/573 only)
NPROT Call machine-specific protection zone
n Number of protection zone
state Status parameter
0 = Deactivate protection zone
1 = Preactivate protection zone
2 = Activate protection zone
3 = Preactivate protection zone with conditional stop
xMov,yMov,zMov Move defined protection zone on the geometry axes
