1.17 1.17 NEWCONF: Setting machine data effective
Function
All machine data of the effectiveness level "NEW_CONFIG" are set active by means of the
NEWCONF language command. The function can also be activated in the HMI user
interface by pressing the "MD data effective" softkey.
When the NEWCONF function is executed there is an implicit preprocessing stop, that is, the
path movement is interrupted.
Programming
NEWCONF
Parameter
NEWCONF All machine data of the "NEW_CONFIG" effectiveness level are
set active.
Cross-channel execution of NEWCONF from the parts program
If axial machine data from the parts program are changed and then activated with NEWCONF,
NEWCONF will only activate the machine data containing changes affecting the parts program
channel.
Note
In order to ensure that all changes are made, the NEWCONF statement must be executed in
every channel in which the axes or functions affected by the changes in the machine data
are being calculated.
No axial machine data are effective for NEWCONF.
An axial RESET must be undertaken for axes controlled by the PLC.
Example
Milling: Machine drill position with different technologies
N10 $MA_CONTOUR_TOL[AX]=1.0 ; Change machine data
N20 NEWCONF ; Set machine data active
