The reference points need only be
traversed if the machine axes are to be
moved. If you intend only to write, edit or
test programs, you can select the
Programming and Editing or Test Run
modes of operation immediately after
switching on the control voltage.
You can then traverse the reference
points later by pressing the PASS OVER
REFERENCE soft key in the Manual
Operation mode.
Traversing the reference point in a tilted working
plane
The reference point of a tilted coordinate system
can be traversed by pressing the machine axis
direction buttons. The “tilting the working plane”
function (see section 2.5 “Tilting the Working
Plane”) must be active in the Manual Operation
mode. The TNC then interpolates the corresponding
axes.
The NC START button is not effective. Pressing this
button may result in an error message.
Make sure that the angle values entered in the
menu for tilting the working plane match the actual
angle of the tilted axis.
Switch-off
To prevent data being lost at switch-off, you need to
run down the operating system as follows:
ú
Select the Manual mode
ú
Select the function for run-down,
confirm again with the YES soft key.
ú
When the TNC displays the message
„Now you can switch off the TNC“ in a
superimposed window, you may cut
off the power supply to the TNC.
Inappropriate switch-off of the TNC can
lead to data loss.

Switch-On
Switch-on and traversing the reference points can vary
depending on the individual machine tool. Your machine
manual provides more detailed information.
Switch on the power supply for control and machine.
The TNC automatically initiates the following dialog
Memory Test
<
The TNC memory is automatically checked.
Power Interrupted
<
TNC message that the power was interrupted
— clear the message.
Translate PLC Program
<
The PLC program of the TNC is automatically compiled.
Relay Ext. DC Voltage Missing
<
Switch on the control voltage.
The TNC checks the functioning of the
EMERGENCY STOP circuit.
Manual Operation
Traverse Reference Points
<
Cross the reference points manually in the
displayed sequence: For each axis press the
machine START button, or
cross the reference points in any sequence:
Press and hold the machine axis direction
button for each axis until the reference point has
been traversed.
The TNC is now ready for operation in the
Manual Operation mode.
