Upon reset, memorized position data is lost and the tool withdraw mode is
cancelled.
Explanation 3Return
- Return path
When there are more than ten return paths, the tool first moves to the tenth
position, then to the ninth position, then to the eighth position, and so forth
until the retraction position is reached.
- Single block
The single block switch is enabled during return operation. If the single
block switch is turned off, continuous return operation is performed. If the
single block switch is turned off, the tool stops at each memorized position.
In this case, return operation can be resumed by turning the TOOL
RETURN switch on then off again.
- Interruption of return operation
When an alarm is issued during return operation, return operation stops.
- Feed hold
The feed hold function is enabled during return operation.
Explanation 4Repositioning
- Feed hold
The feed hold function is disabled during repositioning.
- Operation after completion of repositioning
The operation after completion of repositioning depends on the automatic
operation state present when the TOOL WITHDRAW switch is turned on.
1. When automatic operation is being started
After completion of repositioning, the interrupted execution of the
block is resumed.
2. When automatic operation is held or stopped
After completion of repositioning, the tool stops once at the
repositioned point, then the original automatic operation hold or stop
NOTE
Simultaneous automatic/manual operations are
impossible in the tool retraction mode. If they are
selected, manual operation such as jog feed,
incremental feed, or handle feed is not performed in
the tool retraction mode.
In the tool retraction mode, if an attempt is made to
move the tool along two or more axes at one time
using a manual numeric value command, alarm
(PS0183) is issued.
