Collision monitoring in the manual operating
modes

In the Manual Operation and El. Handwheel operating modes, the TNC

stops a motion if two objects monitored for collision approach each

other within a distance of less than 3 to 5 mm. In this case, the TNC

displays an error message naming the two objects causing collision.
If you have selected a screen layout in which positions are displayed

on the left and collision objects on the right, then the TNC additionally

marks the colliding objects in red.

Deactivating collision monitoring
If you have to reduce the distance between collision-monitored

objects for lack of space, the collision monitoring function must be

deactivated.



Shift the soft-key row if necessary



Select the menu for deactivating collision monitoring



Select the Manual Operation menu item



To deactivate collision monitoring, press the ENT key,

and the symbol for collision monitoring in the

operating mode display starts to blink



Move axes manually, pay attention to traverse direction



To reactivate the collision monitor: Press the ENT key

Once a collision warning is displayed, machine motions via

the direction keys or handwheel are possible only if the

motion increases the distance between the collision

objects. For example, by pressing the axis direction key for

the opposite direction.
Motions that reduce the distance or leave it unchanged are

not allowed as long as collision monitoring is active.

Danger of collision!

If you have deactivated the collision monitoring, the

symbol for collision monitoring flashes (see following

table).
