Jogging the axes with handwheels: Electronic handwheels may be used to move the axes JOG Turn the jog selector switch of the operator panel to one of the handwheel positions. Once the desired resolution has been selected and depending on the type of handwheel being used, general or individual, proceed as follows: 1. General handwheel (may be used to jog any axis of the machine): On the JOG keyboard, press one of the keys for the axis to be jogged. f several axes are selected simultaneously, they all move at the same time. The CNC moves each axis as the handwheel is turned depending on the setting of the selector switch and on the turning direction of the handwheel. 2. ndividual handwheel (it is associated with a particular axis): The CNC moves each axis as its relevant handwheel is turned depending on the setting of the selector switch and on the turning direction of the handwheel. efinition of machining conditions ESC Press the [S] key to select a spindle speed.

ESC Press [ESC] to quit this mode. ata definition: ENTER Place the cursor over the relevant data, key in the desired value and press [ENTER]. 1. Tool calibration without a probe: t may be used to calibrate the length (L) of the tool that is currently at the spindle. The radius (R) must be defined directly. To calibrate the length, follow these steps: efine the coordinate of the part used for calibration. Select the tool and the offset. The CNC places the tool into the spindle and shows the dimensions defined in the tool table for that offset. Use the M mode to start the spindle. Approach the tool manually until it touches the part. Press the "Calibration" softkey. 2. Tool calibration with probe (only when using a table-top probe installed on the machine): t may be used to calibrate the length (L) or the radius (R) of the tool that is currently in the spindle. To calibrate, follow these steps: efine the probing distance and feedrate. Select the tool and the offset. ENTER The shows the dimensions defined in the tool table for that offset. The CNC places the tool into the spindle and shows the dimensions defined in the tool table for that offset. Select the axis and the probing direction on the softkey menu. Use the M mode to start the spindle. The tool moves along the selected axis and direction until touching the probe. 6 (SOFT 03.1X)

9 Automatic loading of zero offsets or fixture offset tables The CNC shows the list of available zero offsets and fixture offsets. Select the zero offset or fixture offset where you wish to save the active offset. ENTER Press [ENTER] to enter the offset in the table. ESC Note: Press [ESC] to cancel the operation at any time. For the CNC to assume one of the stored zero offsets or fixture offsets, execute, in M mode, the function G54, G55,..., G59 or G159 associated with it. M MOE The M mode may be used in any work mode. Operations in M mode The following operations are possible in this M work mode: Edit and execute individual blocks. Save the set of blocks executed as an independent program. Standard M window: t is possible to edit and execute new blocks or recover blocks saved in the block history, which may be modified before executing them. Editing: The blocks may be edited directly on the edit line or may be recalled from the block history. To access the history and select a block. ENTER To accept the selection and show the block on the edit line. ESC To cancel the selection and quit the M mode. Execution: Press [START] to execute currently displayed on the editing line. RESET Press [STOP] to interrupt the execution of the block. Press [START] to resume execution.

10 AUTOMATC MOE Program selection A different program may be selected and executed in each channel. The program is executed in the channel where it is selected from. To select a program, press the softkey "Select program" of the softkey menu and the CNC will show a list of all the programs available. Single-block execution mode When this mode is active, the execution of the program is interrupted at the end of each block. t selects the single block execution mode. Tool inspection This option is only available when the running program has been interrupted. Press the relevant key to start the tool inspection. Reposition the axes and the spindle: To end tool inspection and reposition the spindle and the axes at the point where tool inspection began, press the relevant softkey.

16 TECHNOLOGCAL FUNCTONS Machining feedrate (F) The machining feedrate may be selected by programmed using the "F" code which remains active until another value is programmed. The programming units depend on the active work mode (G93, G94 or G95) and the type of axis being moved (linear or rotary). Spindle speed (S) The spindle speed is selected by program using the spindle name followed by the desired speed. The speeds of all the spindles of the channel may be programmed in the same block. The programmed speed stays active until another value is programmed. The programming units will be RPM unless selected otherwise. f G96 is active, the programming units will be m/min. Tool number (T) The "T" code identifies the tool to be selected. The tools may be in a magazine managed by the CNC or in a manual magazine (referred to as ground tools). Tool offset number () The tool offset contains the tool dimensions. Each tool may have several offsets associated with it. To activate an offset, it must be previously defined. To do that, the CNC offers a section of the tool table where several offsets may be defined. 14 (SOFT 03.1X)
