Special features to be observed during manual traversing of spindles can be found in Section
"Manual traversing of the spindle (Page 667)".
Manual traversing of geometry axes
Manual traversing of geometry axes is used for traversing for which transformations and frames
have to be active. The geometry axes are traversed in the most recently valid coordinate
system.
Special features to be observed during manual traversing of geometry axes (and orientation
axes) can be found in Section "Manual traversing of geometry axes/orientation axes
(Page 668)".
Additional functions
In addition to various traversing variants, further functions can be selected in JOG mode:
● REF (reference point approach)
● REPOS (repositioning)
● Approach of configured fixed points
See Section "Approaching a fixed point in JOG (Page 671)".
● Approach of a definable position
See Section "Position travel in JOG (Page 678)".
● Traverse geometry axes along a circular arc
See Section "Circular travel in JOG (Page 683)".
● JOG retract (retraction movement in the tool direction after a program abort due to a power
failure or RESET)
See Section "Retraction in the tool direction (JOG retract) (Page 693)".
Use of handwheels in automatic mode
Handwheels can also be used in automatic mode:
● Handwheel override in AUTOMATIC mode with path specification and/or velocity override
(Page 703)
● Contour handwheel/path input using handwheel (option) (Page 710)
● Correction of the tool wear for machining in AUTOMATIC mode by means of additional
incremental work offset using the handwheel (DRF) (Page 703)
Monitoring
For manual traversing, limitations apply, which are monitored in the controller.
See Section "Monitoring functions (Page 723)".
