Enter a value in milliGs for the desired acceleration rate. One milliG is approximately
0.384 inches per second
2
. A recommended, initial value for this field is 10 mGs.
Fast Stop Deceleration Rate
This parameter is activated by the Fast Stop or Torch Collision Input and specifies in
milliGs how quickly the system will stop when the Fast Stop Input is active. Generally,
this value is much higher than the acceleration rate.
One milliG is approximately 0.384 inches per second
2
.
Maximum Machine Speed
Enter the maximum value at which the system is capable of contouring. This parameter
is used to limit the range of all subsequent speed entries. In addition, it is used to scale
the speedometer in the Watch window during runtime operation.
The maximum speed at which the CNC can contour can be calculated with the following
equation.
Maximum Contouring Rate (IPM) =
60 seconds
Θ 1 Inch Θ 100,000 edges
minute User edges second
For example: the CNC could command a cutting machine with 4000 edges per inch
resolution at 1,500 IPM.
Limited Machine Speed
Defines maximum machine speed when the Limited Speed Input is active. This is
commonly used to set a reduced machine speed for increased safety during machine
testing or maintenance.
High Jog Speed
Defines the high speed for manual motion.
Medium Jog Speed
Defines the medium speed for manual motion.
Low Jog Speed
Defines the low speed for manual motion.
