Fig. 6-3 Changing physical quantities
The user wishes to enter the linear velocity in m/min.
The internal physical quantity is mm/s.
min * 1 m * 60 s
= 1000/60 [mm/s] = 16.666667
1 m * 1000 mm * 1 min
[m/min] =
The machine data must be entered as follows:
MD 10220: SCALING_USER_DEF_MASK = ‘H4‘ (activation of new factor) and
MD 10230: SCALING_FACTORS_USER_DEF [2] = 16.6666667 (scaling factor
for linear velocity in m/min).
The machine data are automatically converted to these physical quantities after
input of the new scale and power ON. The new values are displayed on the
MMC and can then be saved.
The unit of the physical quantities for programming in the part program is
specified in the Programming Guide.
The internal control calculation resolutions are entered in MD 10200:
INT_INCR_PER_MM (calculation resolution for linear positions) and
MD 10210: INT_INCR_PER_DEG (calculation resolution for angular
positions).
The default value for this machine data is “1000”. The control thus calculates as
standard in 1/1000 mm or 1/1000 degrees. If greater accuracy is required, only
these two machine data need to be changed. It is useful to enter machine data
in powers of 10 (100, 1000, 10000). If required, rounding (and thus also
falsification) of the internal values can only be achieved with finer units.
However, it is essential that the measuring system is adapted to this degree of
accuracy. The internal calculation resolution also determines the accuracy with
which positions and selected compensation functions are calculated. Changes
to the MD have no influence on the velocities and cycle times which can be
attained.
In MD 9004: DISPLAY_RESOLUTION, you can set the number of decimal
places after the decimal point for the position values on the operator panel.
The input value limitation depends on what values can be displayed and input
on the operator panel.
This limit is reached at 10 digit positions plus decimal point plus sign.
