2.5 Glossary of softkey functions

SW VERSION

This softkey is used to display:

– Type of control
– Hardware data
– Software versions of CPU and UMS.

TEACH IN

With ”TEACH IN” you generate a part program block by block. By doing this, you can test the
program immediately.

THREAD

Select the G functions for thread cutting with this softkey.

TO AUTOM

(AUTOMATIC TOOL OFFSET)

By traversing to the desired reference plane, the tool offset can be measured and stored.

TOOL

You input the tool number T... and the tool offset number D...

TOOL DATA

You can enter data, such as tool number, tool life, workpiece count, etc. in a screen form for
up to four tools.

TOOL OFFSET

The tool offset takes into account the tool dimensions and wear. The tool offset is stored
under a tool offset number, D1 to D99, in the tool offset memory. If the “axis duplication”
function is active, the tool offset memory is divided into two halves automatically (D1 to D49
for tool system 1 and D50 to D99 for tool system 2).
Via the ”TOOL OFFSET” softkey after ”DATA OUT”, you select the output of tool offsets via
the universal interface.

WORK CYCLE

(MACHINING CYCLE)

Using a softkey you can select cycles for frequently occurring machining sequences.
Preselect: ”GUIDING” softkey.

WORKING AREA LIM.

(WORKING AREA LIMITATION)

The minimum and maximum working area limits of the defined axes appear in the display. You
can modify the values displayed.
