Channel parameters

P-CHAN-00006

Name of an axis in the NC channel

Description

This variable specifies the axis designations of all axes in the interpolator. The related corresponding logical axis number is defaulted by the parameter P-CHAN-00035.

Parameter

gruppe[i].achse[j].bezeichnung

Data type

STRING

Data range

Maximum 16 characters (length of axis designation, application-specific)

Dimension

----

Default value

*

Remarks

The axis designations must begin with the letters A, B, C, U, V, W, X, Y, Z or Q. After that, all letters and digits are possible. The axis designations must be unique.

Caution: The axis identifiers ‘A1‘ to ‘A32‘ may not be used if the parameter P-CHAN-00253 is active. In this case, these identifiers are explicitly permitted in the axis lists (P-AXIS-00297) only.

Parameterisation example:

An axis group with 3 axes is to be configured. The first axis is addressed with ‘X_ACHSE1’ in the NC program. The second axis is designated ‘A’. The third axis is addressed with ‘W1’.

gruppe[0].achse[0].bezeichnung X_ACHSE1

gruppe[0].achse[1].bezeichnung A

gruppe[0].achse[2].bezeichnung W1+

* Note: The default value of variables is a blank string.

P-CHAN-00100

Time of effectiveness of tool compensation data

Description

This parameter defines the time of the effectiveness of the tool compensation data (tool length compensation, tool position compensation) programmed by the D word

Parameter

move_tool_offsets_directly

Data type

BOOLEAN

Data range

0: The compensation movement to consider the new tool compensation data only takes place after the D word for an axis when the next traverse information absolute (G90) is programmed (default).

1: The compensation movement in the corresponding axes is executed immediately with the D word without programming an absolute path condition (in compliance with DIN 66025).

Dimension

----

Default value

0

Remarks

The parameter has no effect if the kinematic transformation is active (#TRAFO ON). New tool compensation data are only considered with the next absolute travel information.
