Access from part program
Parameters can be read and written from the part program.
Example Programming
Read the current width of tool 2 and store in R10
R10 = $TC_TPG5 [2]
Write value 2000 to the maximum speed of tool 3
$TC_TPG6 [3] = 2000
$P_ATPG[m] for current tool
This system variable allows the tool-specific grinding data for the current tool to be
accessed.
m: Parameter number (data type: Real)
Example:
Parameter 3 ($TPG3[<T No.>])
$P_ATPG[3]=R10
Note
The monitoring data applies to both the left-hand and the right-hand cutting edge of the
grinding wheel.
The tool-specific grinding data is activated when
GWPSON (select constant grinding wheel
surface speed) and
TMON (select tool monitoring) are programmed. To activate a data item
that has been modified, it is necessary to program
GWPSON or TMON again.
The length compensations always specify the distances between the tool carrier reference
point and the tool tip in the Cartesian coordinates (must be noted for inclined grinding
wheel).
