IDLE State
Idle state is the most common state. Under this state, the machine has no motion to output, but is ready
to accept any new task.
ESTOP State
This is an abnormal state. When there is an error in the hardware of the machine tool, the system will
enter into this state and implement the predetermined protection actions, such as closing spindle motor
and cooling pump. Under this state, the machine tool is locked and cannot carry out any new action.
Running State
When the machine tool is implementing any action, the system enters into Running State.
Pause State
When the machine tool is running, if the key of
―pause during machining‖ is pressed, the system will
enter into PAUSE state and wait for further instruction. At this time, pressing the
―Start‖ key will make the
system enter into
―Running‖ state, while pressing the ―Stop/Cancel‖ key will make the system stop.
LOCK State
During soft limit operation, the system turns into lock state, an internal state.
3.2. Coordinate System
Machine coordinate system (MCS) and workpiece coordinate system (WCS) are included, which can be
switched by combination key
+
. Workpiece coordinate system is adopted in Fig. 3-1, with
number 1~6 in front of axis name referring to WCS G54~G59 correspondingly. If machine coordinate
system (MCS) is adopted, number in front of the axis is absent, while an
asterisk mark “*” will appear
after the axis returned to the machine origin.
Coordinate system is a terminology to describe the motion of a machine tool. For the sake of unification,
standard coordinate system adopts the right-hand rule. See Fig. 3-2.
