6.2 Commissioning
Behavior for value == name of a protection area element, type "FRAME"
When activating the associated tool, the control creates a protection area element for the tool
with a unique, internal name and protection area body generated from the geometric data of
the tool. The name is assigned a system variable $NP_NEXT of the protection area element,
type "FRAME", to which $NP_1ST_PROT refers.
● Protection area "TOOL" : $NP_1ST_PROT = "WKZ_Frame" →
– Protection area element "WKZ_Frame" : $NP_NEXT = "<internal name>"
The coordinates of the tool protection area refer to the local coordinate system of the protection
area element, type "FRAME".
Possible applications: Tool definition independent of the position where it is mounted on the
machine.
Example
The 1st protection area element which makes up the 6th protection area has the name "Spindle
head":
Program code
N100 $NP_1ST_PROT[5] = "Spindle head"
6.2.3.6

$NP_PROT_COLOR

Function
Enter the protection area element-specific value for alpha/transparency and color (ARGB) in
the system variable. This value is used for the display of the protection area or protection area
element on the user interface. If a separate value is entered for a protection area element in
$NP_COLOR (Page 237), this is used for the display of the protection area element.
Structure
Alpha/transparency and color are specified as a double word in hexadecimal format:
