TANEOUS VALID nTH AXIS
[Function]
The automatic mode (MDI, memory) and manual mode (handle, step, jog, manual reference point
return) can be simultaneously selected allowing manual operation during automatic operation.
(Random feed with the PLC is also possible.)
[Operation]
The manual/auto simultaneous mode is entered when the automatic mode and manual mode are
selected simultaneously. The manual operation axis is selected with this signal during the
manual/auto mode. The manual operation axis is selected individually with (MAE1~14) for the 1st to
14th axes.
The axis selected with this signal can be operated in the manual mode during automatic operation.
(Note 1) If an axis command is issued to a manual operation axis from the automatic mode, the
"M01 OPERATION ERROR 0005" will occur. The automatic operation will be interlocked
until the operation error is canceled.
(Note 2) During the automatic mode (when manual is not selected and manual/auto simultaneous
mode is not entered), this signal will be invalid and the interlock will not be applied.
(Note 3) If this signal turns ON in respect to an axis commanded with automatic during the
manual/auto simultaneous mode, an interlock will be applied on the axis, and the axis will
immediately decelerate and stop. (The "M01 OPERATION ERROR 0005" will occur.)
After decelerating and stopping, operation with the manual mode will be possible. Note
that the interlock will also be applied during the tap modal.
(Note 4) During the manual/auto simultaneous mode and the automatic mode, the manual axis
command will be invalid toward an axis for which this signal is OFF. Note that interruption
with the manual handle will be possible.
(Note 5) The feedrates for the automatic command axis and the manual command axis are
different. The acceleration/deceleration mode (rapid traverse, cutting feed) are also
independent.
(Note 6) The rapid traverse override, cutting feed override and 2nd cutting override are valid for
both the automatic command axis and manual command axis. (Note that the cutting and
2nd cutting overrides to the manual command axis are valid when the manual cutting
override is valid.) Override cancel is valid for the automatic command axis.
(Note 7) The manual interlock is valid for the manual command axis, and the automatic interlock
is valid for the automatic command axis.
(Note 8) The in-cutting feed and in-rapid traverse signals will follow the automatic command axis
movement mode.
(Note 9) The axis moving with manual movement will not stop with single block stop or feed hold.
(Note 10) If the G92 and G53 commands are issued in the manual mode to an axis for which this
signal is ON, the G92 and G53 commands will be executed after the manual axis
movement stops. (An axis command with G53 will cause an operation error after the
manual axis movement stops.)
( Note 11) If a soft limit or OT is applied on the manual command axis during the manual/auto
simultaneous mode, the automatic command axis will also decelerate to a stop, and will
enter the feed hold state.
