General Prerequisites - Siemens SINUMERIK 840D sl Programming Manual

2.2

General prerequisites

Certain preconditions must be met before measuring cycles can be used. These are described
in detail in the
Check the preconditions using the following checklist:
● Machine
– All machine axes are designed in accordance with DIN 66217.
– Machine data has been adapted.
● Starting position
– The reference points have been approached.
– The starting position can be reached by linear interpolation without collision.
● Display functions of the measuring cycles
A HMI/PCU or HMI/TCU is required for showing the measuring result displays and for
measuring cycle support.
● Please observe the following when programming:
– Tool radius compensation is deselected before it is called (G40).
– The cycle is called no later than at the 5th program level.
– The measurement is also possible in a system of units that differs from the basic system
