Detailed Description
2.6 Incrementally programmed compensation values
Tool Compensation (W1)

Sequence
Selection of a tool compensation with incremental programming
• Scratch workpiece with tool tip.
• Save the actual position in the basic frame (set actual value) after reducing it by the tool
compensation.
• Traverse incrementally from the zero position.
Activation
With setting data:
SD42442 $SC_TOOL_OFFSET_INCR_PROG,
it is possible to define whether a changed tool length is traversed with FRAME and
incremental programming of an axis, or whether only the programmed path is traversed.
Zero offset/frames G91
With setting data:
SD42440 $SC_FRAME_OFFSET_INCR_PROG,
it is possible to define whether a zero offset is traversed as standard with value = 1 with
FRAME and incremental programming of an axis, or whether only the programmed path is
traversed with value = 0.

Supplementary condition
If the behavior is set such that the offset remains active even after the end of the program
and RESET (MD20110 $MC_RESET_MODE_MASK, bit6=1), and if an incremental path is
programmed in the first part program block, the compensation is always traversed additively
to the programmed path.
Note
With this configuration, part programs must always begin with absolute programming.
