Writing measured values from the touch probe cycles to
the preset table
If you want to save measured values in the basic
coordinate system, use the ENTRY IN PRESET TABLE
function. If you want to save measured values
in the workpiece coordinate system, use the
ENTER IN DATUM TABLE function.
Further information: "Writing measured values from the
touch probe cycles to a datum table", Page 213
With the ENTRY IN PRESET TABLE soft key, the control can write the
values measured during any touch probe cycle to the preset table.
The measured values are then stored with reference to the machine
coordinate system (REF coordinates). The preset table has the name
PRESET.PR, and is saved in the TNC:\table\ directory.
Select any probe function
Enter the desired coordinates for the preset in the designated
input boxes (depends on the touch probe cycle being run)
Enter the preset number in the Number in table? input field
Press the ENTRY IN PRESET TABLE soft key
The control opens the Overwrite active preset? menu.
Press the OVERWRITE PRESET soft key
The control saves the preset in the preset table under the entered
number.
Preset number does not exist: The control does not save the
line until the CREATE LINE soft key has been pressed (Create
line in table?)
Preset number is protected: Press the ENTRY IN LOCKED LINE
soft key to overwrite the active preset
Preset number is password-protected: Press the ENTRY IN
LOCKED LINE soft key and enter the password to overwrite
the active preset
The control displays a note if a table row cannot be
written to because of disabling. The probing function
itself is not interrupted.
