Residual time calculation up to trigger mark, residual time look-ahead
Note on nomenclature:
ETA: Estimated Time of Arrival, estimated time of arrival at a defined point.
This function is available as of CNC Build V3.1.3080.16 or V3.1.3107.51.
The function is activated by the channel parameter (P-CHAN-00650).
configuration.interpolator.function FCT_IPO_DEFAULT | FCT_CALC_TIME
Or by the start-up parameter P-STUP-00070.
The CNC then calculates the residual time to a programmed trigger point in the NC program. The trigger point can represent the transition from a rapid traverse block to a feed block.
The residual time calculation is dependent on the available size of the look-ahead. The look-ahead for a customised setting is defined in P-CHAN-00653 (or in P-STUP-00071) (FCT_LOOK_AHEAD_CUSTOM).
