40i TS - v1205 - Installation/Operation - (19/29)
Axes option:
These parameters must be set for each axis.
Note: To select the spindle axis (the 4th axis), press the 3rd axis key twice.
1- Combine axes: It is possible to add/subtract any axis
to/from another axis. The factory setting is NO.
Rotary axes cannot be combined.
2- Display resolution: It is the resolution of the DRO. It
makes it possible to display the position with a coarser
resolution than that of the feedback device, although the
actual internal calculation is done with the finest
resolution.
Factory setting: 0.0000. It means that the display
resolution is the encoder resolution.
3- Reverse the feedback reading (pulse counting)
direction: Yes or NO. Factory setting: NO.
4- Display feedrate: Axis feed rate, both in mill and lathe modes. When activating this option
("YES"), the screens shows a window indicating the feed rate of each axis.
5- Default value: Measurement in radius or diameter. Only available for the X axis.
The units will be m/min or inches/min depending on whether MM or INCH is active.
Alarms option:
Turn on/off the various types of alarms.
These alarms must be set for each axis. The following
screen is displayed:
1- 1 Vpp alarm: The DRO checks the amplitude and
phase shift of 1 Vpp signals. An alarm is displayed when
any of the signals gets out of the set limits.
2- Feedback alarm: Feedback alarm provided by TTL
angular encoders. It may be active low (TTL 0) or active
high (TTL 1).
3- Feed rate overrun alarm: When set to YES, an alarm
is issued over 200 kHz.
4- Travel limits: Setting it to YES activates two more fields (boxes) for entering the travel limits. A
warning appears on the screen when overrunning these limits.
