Display motion range limits in PCS coordinate system (P-CHAN-00489)

P-CHAN-00489

Display motion range limits in PCS coordinate system

Description

This parameter enables a display of the software limits in the PCS coordinate system. All offsets are considered (e.g. zero point or tool offsets) and Cartesian transformations (#CS). In order to consider active mirroring functions (G21-G23, G351) the channel parameter P-CHAN-00434 must also be activated..

A display of PCS limits is not possible for axes that are a component of an active kinematic transformation. In this case, the limits are set to +/-1E200.

Offset limits for manual mode are not considered in this review.

If the display of PCS motion range limits is activated, the limits can be requested by CNC objects in the data of the interpolator axes of the GEO task,

• Positive PCS limit
• Negative PCS limit
• Distance to positive PCS limit
• Distance to negative PCS limit
