Configuring input screens for measuring cycles in the program editor
Using the following setting data, you configure the display screen and the correction options
when making measurements in the AUTOMATIC mode:
● SD54760 $SNS_MEA_FUNCTION_MASK_PIECE measure workpiece: Measuring cycles
in the milling area, see Chapter "Measuring workpieces, general (Page 188)"
● SD54762 $SNS_MEA_FUNCTION_MASK_TOOL measure tool: Measuring cycles in the
milling area, see Chapter "Measuring tools at the milling machines (Page 192)"
Note
If you have created the prerequisites described in this chapter and you have set and checked
the machine/setting data, you can perform measurements at the machine with a workpiece or
tool probe in the AUTOMATIC mode!
If you wish to set up workpiece measurement on a turning machine, then additional settings
are required. Refer to Chapter "Measuring workpieces at the turning machines (Page 198)"
for the settings.
If you wish to set-up tool measurement using a tool probe, then you must also make additional
settings. Please refer to Chapters "Measuring tools at the turning machines (Page 199)" or
"Measuring tools at the milling machines (Page 192)" for the settings.
A description is provided in the following chapters as to which settings you can make in order
to adapt measuring to the specific requirements of your particular machine.
7.9.4.1

Measuring workpieces, general

Using the following general and channel-specific cycle setting data, you can appropriately
adapt workpiece measurement to the specific requirements in the "Program" operating area.
188
Default value
When calling measuring cycles in conjunction with SINUMERIK Operate, ShopMill or Shop‐
Turn simulation, the measuring cycles are skipped, default value.
Default setting:
When calling measuring cycles in conjunction with SINUMERIK Operate, ShopMill or Shop‐
Turn simulation, the measuring cycles are run through. However, no corrections are performed
and there is no logging. There is no screen display of the measuring result.
