SINUMERIK 840D sl Base Software and Operating Software
– All machine axes are designed in accordance with DIN 66217.
– Machine data has been adapted.
– The reference points have been approached.
– The starting position can be reached by linear interpolation without collision.
A HMI/PCU or HMI/TCU is required for showing the measuring result displays and for
measuring cycle support.
– Tool radius compensation is deselected before it is called (G40).
– The cycle is called no later than at the 5th program level.
– The measurement is also possible in a system of units that differs from the basic
system (with technology data that has been switched over).
For metric dimension system with active G70, G700.
For inch dimension system with active G71, G710.
