Description

P-STUP-00033

Memory size for backward motion

Description

This parameter defines the memory size in bytes used for backward motion on the path. During start-up, the NC checks whether the required minimum size is available. If this is not the case, a warning is output and the memory size is set to the required minimum value. If the size is set to 0, the “forward/ backward motion on the path” function is not available. The maximum size is only limited by the resources available on the PC.

Parameter

fb_storage_size[i] where i = 0 to 11
(maximum number of channels: 12, application-specific)

Data type

UNS32

Data range

0 ... MAX(UNS32)

Dimension

Default value

P-CHAN-00041

Synchronisation type of M functions

Description

In the array m_synch[i], the synchronization type of the corresponding M function is defined. Here, the field index 'i' defines the number of the M function. The value indicates the synchronisation type of the M function, i.e. when a check is made for presence of a PLC acknowledgement. A motion is not executed, or is stopped at the latest towards the end of the block, if no acknowledgement has arrived from the PLC. The synchronisation type is defined as a string constant or a hexadecimal value.

Parameter

m_synch[i] where i = 0 999 (maximum number of M functions, application-specific)

Data type

STRING

Data range

See the table below.

Dimension

----

Default value

NOT_VALID *

Remarks

M functions are consumption information and must be fetched (read) by the PLC. This also applies to M functions of the type MOS, MOS_TS, MEP_MOS and MET_MOS. Otherwise, this results in a blocked interface to the HLI in the CNC and as a consequence to an unexpected processing stop.

 

*Note:

The
default value for internal M functions (M0, M1, M2, M17, M29, M30, M3, M4, M19) is NO_SYNCH.

 

Caution:

The following applies to synchronisation types with associated time and path-related pre-output (MET_SVS, MET_MOS, MEP_SVS, MEP_MOS):

If one of these synchronisation types is later changed into one which requires no pre-output value, P-CHAN-00070 (m_pre_outp[i]) must be assigned to 0. Otherwise, a license error is generated in case of microjoints if this function is not licensed or not enabled (seeP-CHAN-00600 Alternatively: P-STUP-00060) is inactive.

 

Example:

m_synch[12]         MVS_SVS     0x00000002

 

Note: Programming a UNS32 variable is permissible for downward compatibility reasons.

FAW_SYNCH

0x10000000

Decoding stop (Flush and Wait): Output of M function to PLC and stop of program decoding at block end until program run is completed. FAW_SYNCH can be set in addition to other synchronisation types. M functions with FAW_SYNCH may not be used when tool radius compensation (TRC), polynomial contouring and HSC mode are active.

P-CHAN-00275

Backward movement with external position offsets

Description

The programmed path contour can be shifted by external online influences. Subsequent synchronisation can signal this position offset to the entire NC channel (see #CHANNEL INIT[CMDPOS]). This deletes the offset, i.e. an absolute programmed position then does not include an offset.

During forward/backward movement, external offsets are not moved backward like other motions defined in NC program. If there is backward movement on a program position with an external offset, there are two options:

  1. A further backward movement is not allowed since the positions specified in the NC program must also be reached in the backward direction without offset.
  2. The offset is retained and backward movement is allowed to continue. The current absolute positions defined in NC program are no longer valid since they are shifted by the currently valid offset.

 

These offsets may be caused by:

  • Manual mode actions
  • Shifting the contour with 'Jog of Path' (see [FCT-C15])
  • Compensations executed online (see [FCT-C20]

Parameter

forward_backward.with_offset

Data type

BOOLEAN

Data range

0: No backward movement is possible over the program position of an external offset. The backward movement storage is cleared automatically (as for a #BACKWARD STORAGE CLEAR).

Remarks
