SINUMERIK 840D/840Di/810D Operation/Programming ShopMill (BAS) – 10.04 Edition
To provide you with an overview of the most important machine run
times, ShopMill features a status window that displays the following
operating times.
Measurement of the program run time starts as soon as you press the
"Cycle Start" key and stops on NC Stop or NC Reset.
If you start a new program, timing starts again from the beginning.
Timing continues if dwell time is active, or during program runs with
program test or dry run feedrate. Timing stops with NC Stop or
feedrate override = 0.
The current repetition and the programmed number of program
repetitions (e.g. Workpiece: 15/100) are displayed. The number is
only displayed in ShopMill programs and only when the number of
programmed repetitions N is greater than 1. As from a programmed
repetition of 100000 there is only enough room to display the current
program repetition (e.g. Workpiece: 15).
If no information is yet available about the current program repetition,
only two dashes are displayed (e.g. Workpiece: - -/100).
The current time is displayed here.
Today's date is displayed.
The machine run time displays how much time has elapsed since the
control was last switched on.
The machining time displays the total run time of all programs
executed since the control was last switched on.
The system calculates the actual machine utilization from the timed
machining time and the current machine run time.
The ratio of machining time to machine run time is displayed as a
percentage.
A setting in the machine data determines which run times are
displayed.
Please refer to the machine manufacturer's instructions.
Select "Machine Manual" or "Machine Auto" mode.
