Cycle parameters
Parameter number for result: Enter the number
of the Q parameter to which you want the TNC
to assign the first measured coordinate (X). The
values Y and Z are in the immediately following Q
parameters. Input range: 0 to 1999
Relative measuring path in X: X component of the
direction vector defining the direction in which the
touch probe is to move. Input range -99999.9999 to
99999.9999
Relative measuring path in Y: Y component of the
direction vector defining the direction in which the
touch probe is to move. Input range -99999.9999 to
99999.9999
Relative measuring path in Z: Z component of the
direction vector defining the direction in which the
touch probe is to move. Input range -99999.9999 to
99999.9999
Maximum measuring path: Enter the maximum
distance from the starting point by which the touch
probe may move along the direction vector. Input
range -99999.9999 to 99999.9999
Feed rate for measurement: Enter the measuring
feed rate in mm/min. Input range 0 to 3000.000
Maximum retraction distance: Traverse path in the
direction opposite the probing direction, after the
stylus was deflected. Input range 0 to 99999.9999
Reference system? (0=ACTUAL/1=REF): Define
whether the probing result should be saved in the
input coordinate system (
ACTUAL) or referenced to
the machine-table coordinate system (
REF):
0
: Save the measured result in the
ACTUAL system
1
: Save the measured result in the
REF system
