Your system installer can enable a feature that allows control of the angle
of a multiple axis jog. Since this feature is PAL dependent, see your
system installer’s documentation for its actual operation.
When you activate this feature, the operator selects two different axes to
define a plane for the arbitrary angle jog to take place in. Then an angle is
selected (between 0
° and 360 ° ) to define a vector for the jog. This angle is
referenced from the first axis chosen to define the current plane. Your
system installer has the option to predefine this plane and vector in PAL.
See the documentation prepared by your system installer on selecting an
arbitrary angle jog.
Once this vector has been defined, a jog move can be made along the
defined vector by selecting either HPG, incremental, or continuous jogging
modes in the normal fashion (see page 4-2). The direction that the wheel
travels along the defined vector is determined by your system installer in
PAL.
The feedrate of the wheel is equal to the current feedrate as determined by
<SPEED/MULTIPLY> and <FEEDRATE OVERRIDE> . This feedrate is the
vectorial feedrate for the grinding wheel. Individual axis feedrates
automatically adjust to produce the designated vectorial feedrate. To jog at
the maximum feedrate as set in AMP, hold the
<TRVRS> button down while
jogging in continuous mode.
