MCO-TCO work mode

2.3   HOME SEARCH (MACHINE REFERENCE ZERO)

Home search can be done in 2 ways:

Home search on all the axes

  

The CNC will execute the machine reference zero routine defined by the

manufacture in the general machine parameter P34  (REFPSUB).

    Warning:

The CNC saves the part zero or zero offset that is active at the time.

If no home searching subroutine is defined, the CNC will display the
relevant error message.

Home search on a single axis

 

 

 Carries out the home search on the X axis

 

 

 Carries out the home search on the Z axis

Warning:

The CNC does not save the part zero or zero offset that is active at the
time and assumes as new part zero the position taken by machine
reference zero (home).
