Note
The SETPIECE( ) function is not active during the block search.
Note
Direct writing of $TC_MOP4[t,d] is recommended only in simple cases. A subsequent block
with the STOPRE command is required.
Setpoint refreshing
The setpoint update, i.e. setting the remaining workpiece counters ($TC_MOP4[t,d]) to the
workpiece count setpoint ($TC_MOP13[t,d]) is typically performed via operator input (HMI). It
can, however, also be performed through the RESETMON (state, t, d, ,mon) function as
already described for the tool life monitoring.
Example:
DEF INT state
; At program start, define the variable for status
feedback
...
N100 RESETMON(state,12,1,2)
; Setpoint updating of the unit counter for T12,
D1
...
