Parametrisation

Transformation parameters

Users can parameterise the transformation via channel and/or tool-specific values. The parameters' meanings depend purely on the implementation of the transformation. The parameters can be initialised in the following areas and have different validity periods:

• CNC channel
  The channel parameters can be set for each channel. They apply in the CNC configuration until this channel data is updated (download in System Manager).
• Tool
  Tool parameters are included with the tool request (D programming in the NC program). They apply until the tool is selected in the NC program. The parameters can be initialised individually for each tool.
• TcCOM
  Global parameters can be specified when the kinematics are configured. These apply for as long as the transformation is loaded, i.e. as long as TwinCAT is active.
