Running a Program

Chapter 7

7-22

You can use the

<FEEDRATE OVERRIDE>

to modify the cutting feedrate.

Your system installer determines in AMP if rapid feedrates are overrides

by the

<RAPID FEEDRATE OVERRIDE>

switch/button or the

<FEEDRATE

OVERRIDE>

switch during Dry Run.

CAUTION: When testing a program using Dry Run, the

control still recognizes and executes M-, B-, S-, and T-codes.

To ignore M-, B-, S-, and T-codes, execute Dry Run in

conjunction with miscellaneous function lock. See section

8.1.2.

WARNING: Your system installer can write PAL to allow the

operator to select DRY RUN at any time. This means that

during normal automatic operation, the operator can select

maximum cutting feedrate and replace all feedrates

programmed with an F-word with the AMP assigned DRY RUN

feedrate. This can result in damage to the machine, part, or

injury to the operator.
