Limitation
- Manual operation that cannot change an active offset value
In a mode other than the manual handle feed mode/incremental feed
mode/jog feed mode, no active offset value can be changed.
Moreover, no active offset value can be changed in the manual
reference position return mode.
Even in the modes mentioned above, do not change an active offset
value in the following operations:
• Manual feed for 5-axis machining
• Manual numerical command
• PMC axis control
- Axis that disables an active offset value from being changed
With a rotation axis, no tool length compensation/cutter compensation
value can be changed using this function.
Caution
CAUTION
1 A tool length compensation value and cutter
compensation value can be changed by a
movement on any linear axis. When an offset
value change for an axis is undesirable, interlock
the axis.
2 When a movement is being made on an axis for
which an offset value is to be changed, do not set
the active offset value change mode.
3 When a movement is being made on an axis for
which an offset value is to be changed in the active
offset value change mode, do not change the
specification of the offset value to be changed.
4 In the active offset value change mode, do not
reset the relative coordinate to 0 or preset the
relative coordinate to a specified value.
