Running a Program
Chapter 7
7-20
To disable QuickCheck with or without graphics, press the
{STOP CHECK}
softkey.
CAUTION: Note that when a program is run during quick
check mode, the control performs all coordinate system offset
operations. This means that changes to the coordinate systems
or coordinate offset tables are made (G10 blocks, changes to
G92 and G52 offsets, and changes to the active work coordinate
systems G54-G59.9). All of these changes are discarded at any
termination of QuickCheck. The pre-QuickCheck values are
restored when the
{STOP CHECK}
softkey is pressed. Note that
program changes to the active offset or tool offset tables are
not made in QuickCheck mode.
When you activate AXIS INHIBIT, the control can execute a part program
without moving specified axes. The control simulates axis motion by
updating the axis location and feedrate displays, using the commanded
feedrates, acceleration, and deceleration. If graphics are being used the
tool paths of any inhibited axis are still drawn on the graphics screen.
The program is executed in approximately the same amount of time as it
would be in automatic mode, even though some or all axes may not move.
You can use the axis inhibit feature in conjunction with Dry Run.
WARNING: When testing a program using Axis Inhibit the
control still recognizes and executes M-, B-, S-, and T-codes.
To ignore M-, B-, S-, and T-codes, execute Axis inhibit in
conjunction with miscellaneous function lock. See page 7-2.
You can activate AXIS INHIBIT to inhibit motion of any or all of the axes
depending on the configuration determined by your system installer. This
includes jogging moves. When axis motion has been inhibited for a single
axis, the remaining axes still execute normally and the axis location display
is updated as if axis motion were occurring on all axes.
WARNING: Axes not selected for axis inhibit move as they
would if the program were executed in automatic mode.
