1.3 Operation mode
Synchronization operation mode
Use this operation for situations such as when a large workpiece placed over the two tables is
machined.
According to a move command issued to master axis, slave axis can be operated in
synchronization.
This operation is possible with automatic operation, jog feed, manual handle feed, and
incremental feed. This operation cannot be applied to manual reference position return.
The move command for slave axis cannot be executed. If the command is executed in
automatic operation, alarm PS0213 occurs. And the command does not work in manual
operation.
In ‘synchronization operation’, a move command for the master axis is given to slave axis,
too. Synchronous error compensation is not performed, and any synchronous errors are not
detected.
Single operation mode
Use this operation for cases in which a small workpiece is machined on either table.
With the use of a move command for the master axis, movement for the master axis alone or
for the slave axis alone can be performed. But the move command for slave axis cannot be
executed. If the command is executed in automatic operation, alarm PS0213 occurs.
A single operation can be applied to automatic operation. Manual operation is exactly the
same as normal operation.
Normal operation mode
Use this operation for cases in which different workpieces are machined on the tables.
In the same way as in normal CNC control, specify respective axis addresses for movement
for the master axis and for the slave axis.
Automatic operation and manual operation are performed in this mode.
