- 182 -
As with the standard workpiece coordinate systems, the following
operations can be performed for a workpiece origin offset in an
additional workpiece coordinate system:
(1) The workpiece origin offset value setting screen can be used to
display and set a workpiece origin offset value.
(2) The G10 function enables a workpiece origin offset value to be
set by programming (refer to II-7.2.3).
(3) A custom macro allows a workpiece origin offset value to be
handled as a system variable.
(4) Workpiece origin offset data can be entered or output as external
data.
(5) The PMC window function enables workpiece origin offset data
to be read as program command modal data.
- Setting the workpiece origin offset value in the additional coordinate systems
(G10)
When a workpiece origin offset value is specified using an absolute
value, the specified value is the new offset value. When it is
specified using an incremental value, the specified value is added to
the current offset value to obtain a new offset value.
Limitation
- Specifying P codes
A P code must be specified after G54.1 (G54). If G54.1 is not
followed by a P code in the same block, additional workpiece
coordinate system 1 (G54.1P1) is assumed.
If a value not within the specifiable range is specified in a P code, an
alarm PS0030 is issued.
P codes other than workpiece offset numbers cannot be specified in a
G54.1 (G54) block.
Example 1) G54.1G04P1000;
Example 2) G54.1M98P48;
