NOTE Set TRESC high in the automatic operation mode. TRACT then goes high.
When TRACT goes high, the machine enters the tool retraction mode (refer to Item 5.6.3 in part
I, “Operation” in the Series 15/150–B Operator’s Manual (Operation) for details).
When TRACT goes high, set TRESC low.
TRACT goes high immediately after TRESC goes high if retraction does not occur. If retraction
occurs, TRACT goes high after retraction is completed.
ii) Manual retraction
Switch to the manual mode and retract the tool manually to store the path along which the tool retracts as
described in the Series 15–MB Operator’s Manual.
TRACT remains on while the path is stored.
TRSPS goes low when the tool is moved manually from the retraction position.
iii) Recovery
Return the tool, which was moved manually to store the path in ii), to the retraction position.
