Axis Motion

Chapter 12

12-27

An error is generated if an attempt is made to change planes between
blocks that are chamfer or corner radius blocks

,C and ,R must be programmed in blocks that contain axis motion in the
current plane. If they are programmed in a block that does not contain
axis motion in the currently active plane, the control generates an error

,C and ,R cannot be programmed in a block that contains any of the
following:

any fixed cycle G--codes
any Dwell commands
thread grinding blocks
programmable zone G--codes

Your system installer determines in AMP the resolution of the ,C-- and
,R--words for both inch and metric programming. Refer to the
documentation prepared by your system installer for details

Manual machine home operation that uses switches on the MTB panel
provided solely for this purpose. Manual homing is described in detail
in chapter 4
