HEIDENHAIN iTNC 530 545
13.1 Pallet management
X, Y, Z (entry optional, other axes also possible):
For pallet names the programmed coordinates are referenced to the
machine datum. For NC programs, the programmed coordinates are
referenced to the pallet datum. These entries overwrite the datum
that you last set in the Manual mode of operation. With the
miscellaneous function M104 you can reactivate the datum that was
last set. With the actual-position-capture key, the TNC opens a
window that enables you to have the TNC enter various points as
datums (see table below):
With the arrow keys and the ENT key, select the position that you wish
to confirm. Then press the ALL VALUES soft key so that the TNC
saves the respective coordinates of all active axes in the pallet table.
With the PRESENT VALUE soft key, the TNC saves the coordinates of
the axis on which the highlight in the pallet table is presently located.
Position Meaning
Actual values Enter the coordinates of the current tool position
referenced to the active coordinate system.
Reference
values
Enter the coordinates of the current tool position
referenced to the machine datum.
ACTUAL
measured
values
Enter the coordinates referenced to the active
coordinate system of the datum last probed in
the Manual operating mode.
REF measured
values
Enter the coordinates referenced to the machine
datum of the datum last probed in the Manual
operating mode.
If you have not defined a pallet before an NC program, the
programmed coordinates are then referenced to the
machine datum. If you do not define an entry, the datum
that was set manually remains active.
