6.5.1.1 Input data range check
This function allows an effective data range to be set and checks
whether the input data is within the set range.
Input data range check
Explanation
- Outline of the input data range check
This function allows an effective data range to be set for the data of
each input screen listed later and checks whether the input data is
within the set range. If the input data is out of the effective data
range, the warning message "DATA IS OUT OF RANGE" is
displayed and the data is rejected.
For example, assume that the effective data range for a certain tool
offset number is set to -200. to 200, and that you are going to input
100.[INPUT]. Even if you inadvertently press the 0 key one more
time, resulting in 1000.[INPUT], the input of 1000. is not accepted.
The function detects a setting mistake and prevents the program from
running with invalid data.
- Input screens for which this function is effective
• Tool compensation
• Workpiece origin offset
T
• Y-axis tool offset
• Workpiece shift
- Settings
To enable this function, set an effective data range for each input
screen on the operation confirmation function setting screen. For
information about how to display the individual setting screens, how
to set data ranges, and other details, see the items that describe the
setting of the data ranges.
If the set data range is invalid, no data input is accepted. Correct the
data range setting, and then input data.
- Disabling the function
The input data range check is disabled if you make any of the
following settings on the operation confirmation function setting
screen.
• Both the upper and lower limit values for the tool offset number
or workpiece coordinate system are 0.
• The upper and lower limit values for each offset are identical.
