Handwheel override in automatic mode

General functionality

Function
With this function it is possible to traverse axes or to change their velocities directly with the
handwheel in automatic mode (Automatic, MDI).
The handwheel override is activated in the NC part program using the NC language
elements FD (for path axes) and FDA (for positioning axes) and is non-modal.
With positioning axes, it is possible to activate the handwheel override modally using
traverse instruction POSA. When the programmed target position is reached, the handwheel
override becomes inactive again.
Additional axes can be traversed simultaneously or using interpolation in the same NC block.
The concurrent-positioning-axes function can also be activated by the PLC user program.
Distinction
Depending on the programmed feedrate, a distinction is made between the following for
handwheel override:
● Path definition
● Velocity override
The table below shows which axis types can be influenced by the "handwheel override in
automatic mode" function.
