13.6.1 Considerations about the RTCP function
In order to work with RTCP transformation, the X, Y, Z axes must be
defined, they must form a trihedron and be linear. X, Y and Z may be
GANTRY axes.
The RTCP transformation is kept active even after executing M02 or
M30, after an Emergency or a Reset and after turning the CNC off.
While RTCP is on, the following operations are possible:
• Zero offsets G54-G59, G159.
• Presetting (G92).
• Movements in continuous / incremental jog and handwheel.
Home search (G74) is not allowed if the RTCP transformation is active.
When working with incline planes and RTCP transformation, it is
recommended to follow this programming order (sequence):
RTCP should be turned on first because it allows orienting the tool
without modifying the tool tip position.
#RTCP ON (Turn RTCP on)
#CS ON (Define the incline plane)
#TOOL ORI (Tool perpendicular to the plane)
G (Start machining)
(End machining)
#CS OFF (Cancel the incline plane)
#RTCP OFF (Turn RTCP off)
M30 (End of part-program)
