The different function and axis locking possibilities can be combined optionally. An axis, e.g. Z axis and the functions can be locked simultaneously.

LNote:

About the different locking possibilities turn to the machine tool builder for an information material.

12.5 Test Run

Softkey TEST can be reached on OPERATOR’S PANEL or POSITION screens. After

pressing the action menu key F5 CONDITIONS action menu must be selected, than softkey TEST needs to be pressed.

If NCT machine control board is used select the button.

The TEST state is indicated by caption TEST in the 8th field of the status bar. When the key is activated:

–the interpolator does not command any movement on any axis towards the position control loop, and

–no function is executed by the PLC.

The TEST state can be applied for the syntactic and graphic test of programs. The program execution (the interpolation) is much faster than it is in case of the simul- taneous switched on state of MACH LOCK and DRY RUN. The position display and the graphic position display show the path done.

If button TEST is

inactivated, than the current axis positions can be seen again in the position display of control.

LNote:

Generally the TEST button can be switched in one of the manual modes in case the

axes are in stopped state. For more turn to the machine tool builder for an information material.
