DATUM SHIFT (Cycle 7)
A DATUM SHIFT allows machining operations to be repeated at
various locations on the workpiece.
Effect
When the DATUM SHIFT cycle is defined, all coordinate data is based
on the new datum. The TNC displays the datum shift in each axis in
the additional status display. Input of rotary axes is also permitted.
8 Datum shift: Enter the coordinates of the new
datum. Absolute values are referenced to the
manually set workpiece datum. Incremental values
are always referenced to the datum which was last
valid—this can be a datum which has already been
shifted.
Cancellation
A datum shift is canceled by entering the datum shift coordinates X=0,
Y=0 and Z=0.
Status displays
„ The actual position values are referenced to the active (shifted)
datum.
„ All of the position values shown in the additional status display are
referenced to the manually set datum.
