Programming Feedrates

Chapter 18

18-7

<RAPID FEEDRATE OVERRIDE>

Use

<RAPID FEEDRATE OVERRIDE>

on the MTB panel to override the

rapid feedrate for G00 mode in four increments:

F1 ---- percent value set in AMP by your system installer
25%
50%
100%.

Important: Normally this override is not active for any dry run motions

(see chapter 7) unless otherwise specified in PAL by your system installer.

Important: This override is also effective for jog moves that use the rapid

feedrate (see jogging using the

<TRVRS>

button in chapter 4).

Feedrate override switches disable

An M49 forces the override amounts that are set with the MTB panel to be

ignored by the control. With M49 active, the overrides for feedrate, rapid

feedrate, and spindle speed are all set to 100 percent. You can enable them

by programming an M48 (overrides enabled). See chapter 10 for details.

Feedhold

Your system installer can write PAL to allow the activation of a feedhold

state through the use of a button or switch. When activated, the control

decelerates and holds the current feedrate for all axes to zero until the

feedhold state is deactivated. For details on using feedhold, refer to

documentation provided by your system installer.
