Operating modes
-
Auto
In the AUTO mode, you can run a selected (i.e. open) user program*, thus machining
your workpieces. The cover (where installed) is locked during machining. You will
only be able to open the cover if all axes of the machine have reached their HOME
position and the machine tool, in particular, the milling spindle motor, for example, is
turned off.
To open the cover, press the COVER key. The cover is relocked automatically
after closing.
* ISO / PAL / NCP or CNC files

Test
For testing and checking purposes, you can run the (selected) user program with the
cover open if you turn the key in the keyswitch clockwise (test mode). The program is
now only continued until the "Ack" button (enable button) is released.
The Test mode has no influence on the feedrate / rapid traverse rate of the axes; the
current velocity is not changed. Releasing the "Ack" button (with the cover still open)
will turn off the power output stages. In the Test mode, the machining spindle (e.g.
milling spindle motor) is disabled by the SC module.
Injury hazard!
This key must only be used by qualified and authorised personnel,
since no protection from moving machine parts is provided in the Test
mode if the cover is open.
