Option (AFC)
Proceed as follows to create the AFC.TAB file (required only if the file
does not yet exist):
8
Select the Programming and Editing mode of operation.
8
To call the file manager, press the PGM MGT soft key.
8
Select the TNC:\ directory.
8
Make the new file AFC.TAB and confirm with the ENT key: The TNC
shows a list of table formats.
8
Select the AFC.TAB table format and confirm with the ENT key: The
TNC creates a table with the Standard control settings.
SENS
Sensitivity (aggressivity) of the control. Input possible
between 50 and 200. 50 is for slow control, 200 for a
very aggressive control. An aggressive control reacts
quickly and with strong changes to the values, but it
tends to overshoot. Recommended value: 100
PLC
Value that the TNC is to transfer to the PLC at the
beginning of a machining step. The machine tool
builder defines the function, so refer to your machine
manual.
In the AFC.TAB table you can define as many control
settings (lines) as desired.
If there is no AFC.TAB table in the TNC:\ directory, the
TNC uses permanently defined internal control settings for
the teach-in cut. It is best, however, to work with the
AFC.TAB table.
