The [S, N, X+, d and h] fields are requested when the Calibration/
Measurement (A) method so requires.
Zone (2) defines whether a Measurement or a Calibration is to be
carried out. To select the desired one, position over the desired
"Measurement / Calibration" field and press the (a) key.
A measurement requires the optional "tool life monitoring" and the
following fields must be defined:
Zone (3) defines the probe coordinates. Indicate whether the CNC
must assume the machine parameter values or the ones set in this
zone. To select the desired one, position in the "Machine
Parameters / Programmable Parameters" field and press the (a)
key.
d When the length calibration or measurement is done on
the tip, it indicates the radius or distance with respect to
the tool shaft being probed.
h When calibrating the radius, it indicates the distance
referred to the theoretical tool tip being probed. It is very
useful with cutters whose bottom is not horizontal.
Kmax Maximum length wear allowed.
Imax Maximum radius wear allowed.
Stop
Chg Behavior when exceeding the maximum wear allowed
Stop - It interrupts the execution for the user to select
another tool.
Chg - The cycle replaces the tool with another one of the
same family.
To select the desired one, position over the desired field and
press the (a) key.
