Chapter 3
Offset Tables and Setup

3-17

This feature allows the manual activation of wheel length and
radius/orientation offsets without the need to program the correct T word
to call the corresponding offset number.

Typically you change the wheel length and radius/orientation offsets by
programming a T word as described in chapter 13. Use this feature only
when you need to activate one of these offset numbers manually.

Important: The control must be in cycle stop or E-STOP state before an
attempt is made to change the active offset using this method.

OFFSET

The control displays the offset table. Currently active offset values
(if any) are indicated with a * to the right of the offset number if you
have selected the radius table. If you selected the wheel geometry
table, the * is to the left of the offset number.

3.

Move the cursor (using cursor keys) on the offset table until the
desired offset appears in reverse video. Only one length and one
radius/orientation offset number can be active at any time.
