Traverse Ranges; Determining Range Of Traverse - HEIDENHAIN iTNC 530 Technical Manual

6.1.7 Traverse Ranges

Determining range
of traverse
February 2002
You can divide the working range of the machine into three traverse ranges,
e.g. one for each workpiece. Each traverse range is limited by a software limit
switch.
For the software limit switch of a traverse range:
n
The datum is the machine datum (MP960.x).
n
Software limit switches for tilting axes must be activated with MP812 when
MP810.x ≠ 0
n
The traverse range can be limited further through the MOD function.
n
If a software limit switch is activated, the error message LIMIT SWITCH
<AXIS> appears.
n
Software limit switches can be overwritten with FN17:SYSWRITE, e.g. for
automatic tool change. This function is effective only until the next GOTO
command (GOTO key or FN9 to FN12) or the end of the program.
7 You can determine the current range of traverse with Module 9035
