working space (option 20)

Application

In Test Run operating mode, you can graphically check the position
of the workpiece blank and the preset in the working space of the
machine. The graphics show the preset that has been set in the NC
program using Cycle 247. If you have not defined a preset in the NC
program, then the graphic shows the active preset on the machine.
A transparent cuboid represents the workpiece blank. Its dimensions
are shown in the BLK FORM table. The control takes over the
dimensions from the workpiece blank definition of the selected
NC program.
For a test run it normally does not matter where the workpiece
blank is located within the working space. If you activate
BLANK IN WORK SPACE working space monitoring, you must
graphically shift the workpiece blank in a way that it lies within the
working space. Use the soft keys shown in the table.
In addition, you can use the current machine status for the Test Run
operating mode.
The current machine status includes the following:
active machine kinematics
active traverse ranges
active machining modes
active working spaces
active preset
