10.4.23 Measuring (MEAWA, MEAC)
Function
Compared with use in traverse blocks of the part program, the measuring function can be
activated and deactivated as required.
For further information concerning measuring, see special motion commands "Extended
measuring function".
Syntax
Axial measurement without deletion of distance-to-go
MEAWA[axis]=(mode, trigger_event_1, ..._4)
Continuous measurement without deleting distance-to-go
MEAC[axis]=(mode, measurement_memory, trigger_event_1, ..._4)
