ACU-RITE 3500i 203
7.3 Probing Cycles
Field Code Description
DistDown E The incremental distance from the
current Z Retract amount to go down
along the side of the probe stylus when
doing a diameter pick. The maximum E
value is 0.55" (13.97 mm) or the tool may
crash into the probe or table. If you enter
a value larger than 0.55" (13.97 mm), the
control issues an error message. If E is
not set, the cycle uses a default value of
0.1" (2.54 mm). (Optional) [Default: 0.1"]
Ball nose cutters and special cutters that
require a move down more than 0.55"
(13.97 mm) are not supported.
NOTE: Z Retract Amount is set in the
Tool Probe Parameters.
OvrFstFeed F This is the override for the fast Z feedrate
that was set in the machine setup
parameter ZFirstPickFeedRate_Fast.
Sometimes there may be a tool that has
a large diameter making it necessary to
slow it down to prevent the touch probe
from being hit too hard. This can only be
set slower. Trying to set this higher will
result in the software using the original
feedrate. (Optional)
OvrMedFeed M This is the override for the medium
feedrate that was set in the machine
setup parameter
ZFirstPickFeedRate_Medium. This is
used for the same reason as the F cycle
parameter. This can only be set slower.
Trying to set this higher will result in the
software using the original feedrate.
