216 7 Programming: Canned Cycles, sub-programs
7.3 Probing Cycles
Field Code Description
OvrSlw
Feed
S This is the override for the slow feedrate
that was set in the machine setup
parameter ZFirstPickFeedRate_Slow. This
is used for the same reason as the M cycle
parameter. This can only be set slower.
Trying to set this higher will result in the
software using the original feedrate.
(Optional)
OvrRPM R This is the override for the RPM that was
set in the machine setup parameter
calibAndToolMeasurementRPM. This is
used for the same reason as the M cycle
parameter. This can only be set slower.
Trying to set this higher will result in the
software using the original RPM. (Optional)
Large tools can result in probe damage if the feedrate is
set too fast. For this reason, the cycle parameters: M, S,
and R have been added to enable the programmer/
operator to override the values in the machine setup
parameters for the specific tool being checked or set.
Running this cycle without first initially setting the length
and diameter offset could result in damage to the probe
and/or the machine tool. G150 Calibration and G151
Automatic Tool Length and Diameter set, or G152 Manual
Tool Length Measure for Special Tools and G153 Manual
Tool Diameter Measure for Special Tools, must be run first
before using the G154 cycle.
