Parameter Explanation
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
CALCPOSI INT:
Status
REAL[3]:
Starting
position
in the
WCS
REAL[3]:
Incre‐
mental
path
specifica‐
tion in re‐
lation to
the start‐
ing posi‐
tion
REAL[5]:
Minimum
distan‐
ces to
the moni‐
toring
limits
REAL[3]:
Return
array for
the poss.
incr. dis‐
tance
BOOL:
Conver‐
sion of
the
measur‐
ing sys‐
tem
Yes/No
INT:
Type of
limit
monitor‐
ing
Checks whether the ge‐
ometry axes can traverse
a defined path without vi‐
olating the axis limits
starting from a specified
starting point.
If the defined path cannot
be traversed without vio‐
lating limits, the maxi‐
mum permissible value is
returned.
GETTCOR INT:
Status
REAL
[11]:
STRING:
Tool
length
compo‐
nent: Co‐
ordinate
system
STRING:
Name of
the tool
environ‐
ment
INT:
Internal
T no. of
the tool
INT:
Cutting-
edge
number
(D no.) of
the tool
INT:
Number
of the lo‐
cation-
depend‐
ent offset
(DL no.
of the
tool)
Determines the tool
lengths and tool length
components from tool en‐
vironment or current envi‐
ronment
LENTOAX INT:
Status
INT[3]:
Axis as‐
signment
of the ge‐
ometry
axes
REAL[3]:
Matrix for
mapping
the tool
lengths
in the co‐
ordinate
system
STRING:
Coordi‐
nate sys‐
tem for
the as‐
signment
Determines information
about the assignment of
the tool lengths L1, L2, L3
of the active tool to ab‐
scissa, ordinate, appli‐
cate.
The assignment to the ge‐
ometry axes is affected
by frames and the active
plane (G17 - 19).
