New: Controlled parting (G917)
Controlled parting using servo-lag monitoring (G917) can now be activated
to prevent collisions caused by incomplete parting processes. The control
checks whether a servo lag occurs when the workpiece is moved along a
defined path after it has been cut off. The tensile force for moving the two
cut-off parts of the workpiece away from each other can be programmed.
Refer to the User's Manual for your control for more information about this.
New: Sleeve monitoring (G930)
The G930 function makes it possible to define and monitor the maximum
contact force for an axis. This function can be applied to use the opposing
spindle as a mechatronic tailstock, for example (See "Traversing to a fixed
stop (G916) and sleeve monitoring (G930)" on page 1464).
New: Program list with file preview
A file preview is now displayed below the file list during program selection
of cycle programs. A machine parameter is used to toggle between hiding/
showing the file preview (See "File preview during program selection" on
page 1410).
New: Starting block of cycle programs in program run
When selecting the program run mode, until now the first cycle in a cycle
program was selected, regardless of the cycle selected in teach-in. This
behavior can now be changed via machine parameter insofar as the selected
cycle is confirmed when changing from teach-in to program run (See "Cycle
selection in Program Run" on page 1409).
New: Expanded SIK dialog with additional functions
The dialog for enabling software options (MOD code number SIK) was
revised and expanded. In addition to improved transparency, new functions
are available. For example, the HEIDENHAIN "TNCOEMOption Key
Generator" software for PCs can now be used to enable any option for a
limited time. If one of your customers wants to test an option before buying
it, you can use this software to generate a code number for this option and
choose any test period from 1 to 90 days. See "Enabling software options"
on page 130.
New: Selective parameter backup
The machine parameters now make it possible to configure any file lists that
are saved under unique key names on the control. These are used for
parameter backups. When starting the parameter backup, in a dialog box
you can individually select all defined file lists via their key names. Parameter
backups can now be carried out separately for machine parameters and PLC
parameters, for example. For more details on parameter backups, please
see "Selective parameter backup" on page 1794.
Enhanced function: SAVE SERVICE FILES
When saving service files (See "Saving log files (service files)" on page
1267), you can now choose any file name for the service *.ZIP file.
New: Input of relative and absolute paths
The "Save as" and the "Open" dialog (e.g. in the machine configuration) now
also supports the input of absolute or relative paths in addition to the input
of file names.
