SKIP SIGNALS (INPUT) SKIP <X000#7, X1000#7>
If the skip signal SKIP is input from the machine side during move
command execution in G31 or if a skip signal (SKIP) which is input from
the machine side during the execution of a block for which address P has
been commanded subsequently to G31, the coordinate values at the
moment of startup of that signal are stored in custom macro variables, the
block being executed ends at that moment and the next block is proceeded
to.
The coordinate values stored in the Power Mate are used as called by the
custom macro instruction. This function is used in the following cases.
(1) The moment of machining end is given by a signal from the machine
side instead of being programmed like in grinding.
(2) The work dimension is calculated by the custom macro instruction by
moving the machine in the G31 mode, measuring the coordinate
values at that moment by the signal from the detection sensor and
storing them in the Power Mate in order to measure the dimension of
a work, etc. configuration.
Skip signals SKIP assume the skip state at contact close.
