5.3.6.1
Working area limitation
With this softkey, you select the input menu for the working area limitation.
You can enter the working area limitation setting data in the display.
Using the working area limitation in all operating modes, the traversing ranges
can be limited in addition to the software limit switches. The axes are displayed
for a specific mode group.
When switching over from the METRIC to the INCH input system (and vice
versa), the values of the working area limitation are adjusted in the respective
measuring system only if the maximum possible value is exceeded. If the value
of the working area limitation is possible in the current measuring system, no
adjustment is made.
5.3.6.2
General setting data
With this softkey, you select the input menu for the general setting data. You
can enter the following setting data for the GENERAL DATA display:
•
Dry run feedrate
•
Variable increment weighting
•
Smoothing constant for thread
The dry run feedrate (units/min) entered here is effective if the dry run feedrate
has been activated through program modification. All blocks for which a
feedrate has been programmed are now traversed with the "Dry run
feedrate" specified via the setting data instead of the programmed feedrate (but
please observe the maximum feedrates defined by machine data).
