Measurement

Activation
Axial measurement can be programmed with and without deletion of distance-to-go. The
activation of the measuring is carried out from the part program or a synchronized action.
The measuring method and up to four trigger events are programmed. The measuring mode
specifies the chronological or programmed sequence of the trigger events. For the
continuous measurement, the number of the circular buffer (FIFO) is programmed.
A distinction is made between three measuring methods:
● MEASA: Measurement with deletion of distance-to-go
Note
MEASA cannot be programmed in synchronized actions.
● MEAWA: Measurement without deletion of distance-to-go
● MEAC (option): Continuous measurement without deletion of distance-to-go
The measuring job is aborted with RESET or when the program advances to a new block.
Note
MEASA and MEAWA can be programmed in a block. If MEASA/MEAWA are programmed in
the same block as MEAS/MEAW, an error message will be output.

Example:
N10 MEASA[X]=(1,1,-1) G01 X100 F100
Measuring in mode 1 with active measuring system. Trigger events are the rising and
falling edge of the first probe (1) on the travel path to X=100.
Example:
N20 MEAWA[X]=(1,-1,1,-2,2) G01 X100 F100
Measuring in mode 1 with active measuring system. Trigger events are the falling and
rising edge of the first probe (1) and of the second probe (2) on the travel path to X=100.
Example:
N30 MEAC[X]=(1,1,-2,2) G01 X100 F100
Measuring in mode 1 with active measuring system. Save the measured values under the
first FIFO (1). Trigger events are the falling and rising edge of the second probe (2) on
the travel path to X=100.
