M5: Measurement
8.5 Setting zeros, workpiece measuring and tool measuring
Right-hand tool: Approach direction and tool orientation -x
$AC_MEAS_TOOL_MASK = 0x40
$AC_MEAS_DIR_APPROACH = 1
For both tools
$AC_MEAS_Px_COORD = 1
$AC_MEAS_SET_COORD = 1
Two turning tools each with their own reference point with a tool counter-orientation in the approach
direction
Settings in the system data:
Left-hand tool: Approach direction and tool orientation +x
System variable
$AC_MEAS_TOOL_MASK = 0x2 + 0x200
$AC_MEAS_DIR_APPROACH = 0
Right-hand tool: Approach direction and tool orientation -x
$AC_MEAS_TOOL_MASK = 0x40
$AC_MEAS_DIR_APPROACH = 1
566
Tool position in the -x direction
Approach direction -x
Coordinate system of x-th measuring point = BCS
Coordinate system of the setpoint = BCS
Meaning
Tool position in x direction (G19) +
Tool length differential values are included nega‐
tively
Approach direction +x
Tool position in the -x direction
Approach direction -x
