3.4 OFFSETS Screens
Screens of actions executed on zero point and offset registers.
3.4.1 WORK OFFSETS Screen
In the general displaying area are
offset values of G54, ..., G58,
common zero point offsets, as
well as of offsets programmed
by means of commands G52 and
G92. The coordinate values
belonging to one zero point form
a group. Along the groups the
highlighting bar can be moved
forward (in the direction of
increasing coordinate system
numbers) with the help of key
and backward with key
. Within the highlighting
bar indicating the coordinate system the inverse bar on axis addresses can be moved with keys
and . This bar makes it possible to select the wished axis within the coordinate
system.
Actions of WORK OFFSETS Screen
Actions executed on WORK
OFFSETS screen overwrite off-
set registers immediately, how-
ever this is registered by the pro-
gram under execution only in
case the program has been start-
ed from the beginning or the
program execution is interrupted
(INTD state) and afterwards re-
started. So the current
coordinate system is overwritten
in vain, the modified value will
not be registered till the modified
coordinate system is not used by
the system. It also follows, that
hasty overwrite of the coordina-
te system will not cause immediate problem during program execution, its effect may only be
perceptible in case of the next running of program, so when overwriting it be extremely
cautious. To the WORK OFFSETS screen the following actions and action menus can be
