2.5.4 Path-jog
The "path jog" mode acts when the switch is in one of the continuous or incremental jog positions.
This feature may be used to act upon the jog keys of an axis to move both axes of the plane at the
same time for chamfering (straight sections) and rounding (curved sections). The CNC assumes
as "Path jog" the keys associated with the X axis.
While in jog mode and having selected path-jog, the CNC shows the following information:
For a linear movement (top figure), the path angle must be defined and for an arc (bottom figure),
the center coordinates must be indicated. To define these variables, press the [F] key and then one
of these keys: [

] [

] [

] [

].
Operation in path-jog mode
The "path jog" mode is only available with the X axis keys. When pressing one of the keys associated
with the X axis, the CNC behaves as follows:
The rest of the jog keys always work in the same way, whether "path jog" is on or off. The rest of
the keys move only the axis and in the indicated direction.
The movements in path-jog may be aborted by pressing the [STOP] key or setting the jog switch
to one of the handwheel positions.
This feature must be managed from the PLC. This feature is usually activated and deactivated by
means of an external push-button or a key configured for that purpose, as well as the selection of the
type of path.
i
The next example uses the [O2] key to activate and deactivate the path-jog mode and the
[O3] key to indicate the type of movement.
Activate / deactivate the path-jog mode.
DFU B29 R561 = CPL M5054
It selects the type of movement, straight section or arc section.
DFU B31 R561 = CPL M5053
Switch position Path-jog Type of movement
Continuous jog Deactivated Only the axis and in the indicated direction
Activated Both axes in the indicated direction and along the indicated
path
Incremental jog Deactivated Only the axis, the selected distance and in the indicated
direction
Activated Both axes, the selected distance and in the indicated
direction, but along the indicated path
Handwheel It ignores the keys.
