Any entry into program (mid-program startup)

The

RESTORE POS AT N feature must be enabled and

adapted by the machine tool builder. Refer to your
machine manual.

With the

RESTORE POS AT N feature (block scan) you can start a

part program at any block you desire. The TNC scans the program
blocks up to that point. Machining can be graphically simulated.

If you have interrupted a part program with an

INTERNAL STOP, the

TNC automatically offers the interrupted block N for mid-program
startup.

Mid-program startup must not begin in a
subprogram.

All necessary programs, tables and pallet files must
be selected in the

Program Run, Single Block and

Program Run, Full Sequence operating modes
(status M).

If the program contains a programmed interruption
before the startup block, the block scan is
interrupted. Press the machine

START button to

continue the block scan.

After a block scan, return the tool to the calculated
position with

RESTORE POSITION.

Tool length compensation does not take effect until
after the tool call and a following positioning block.
This also applies if you have only changed the tool
length.
