This section describes the parameters that enable the control’s error
detection for compensation. Error detection can be disabled or enabled for
all blocks, or temporarily enabled or disabled for a specific program block,
by using these parameters:
Parameter: Page:
Interference Detection 23-13
Reverse Compensated Motion Detection 23-14
M-code to Disable Interference Detection 23-15
M-code to Enable Interference Detection 23-16
Compensation errors are described in detail in Chapter 15 of your mill or
lathe programming and operation manual.
Function
Use this parameter to activate or deactivate the Interference Detection
feature for cutter compensation. An interference error is generated when
an intersection occurs among any 3 consecutive compensated tool paths.
This includes generated motion blocks.
Enabled -- When this parameter is set as enabled, the control generates an
error and halts program execution whenever interference occurs.
Disabled -- When this parameter is set as disabled, the control ignores any
interference errors and allows the program to execute.
