Cycle parameters
1st meas. point 1st axis Q263 (absolute):
Coordinate of the first touch point in the reference
axis of the working plane. Input range -99999.9999
to 99999.9999
1st meas. point 2nd axis Q264 (absolute):
Coordinate of the first touch point in the minor axis
of the working plane. Input range -99999.9999 to
99999.9999
1st meas. point 3rd axis Q294 (absolute):
Coordinate of the first touch point in the touch probe
axis. Input range -99999.9999 to 99999.9999
Set-up clearance Q320 (incremental): Additional
distance between measuring point and ball tip.
Q320 is added to
SET_UP (touch probe table). Input
range 0 to 99999.9999
Clearance height Q260 (absolute): Coordinate in
the touch probe axis at which no collision between
touch probe and workpiece (fixtures) can occur.
Input range -99999.9999 to 99999.9999
Datum number in table Q305: Enter the number
in the datum or preset table in which the TNC is
to save the coordinate. If you enter Q305=0, the
TNC automatically sets the display so that the new
datum is on the probed surface. Input range 0 to
2999
New datum Q333 (absolute): Coordinate at which
the TNC should set the datum. Default setting = 0
input range -99999.9999 to 99999.9999
Measured-value transfer (0, 1) Q303: Specify
whether the determined datum is to be saved in the
datum table or in the preset table:
-1
: Do not use! Is entered by the TNC when old
programs are read in (See "Characteristics common
to all touch probe cycles for datum setting")
0
: Write determined datum in the active datum
table. The reference system is the active workpiece
coordinate system
1
: Write the measured datum into the preset table.
The reference system is the machine coordinate
system (REF system).
