4.3 Rapid Traverse Feed Mode
The rapid traverse feed mode enables the machine to be moved consecutively at rapid traverse feedrate
manually.
The rapid traverse feedrate can be changed in four steps by using the RAPID TRAVERSE OVERRIDE switch.
The rapid traverse feed mode is started by using the FEED AXIS SELECT switch.
(Note 1) Refer to the manual issued by the machine maker for the rapid traverse feedrate.
(Note 2) See Section 5 for the RAPID TRAVERSE OVERRIDE switch.
Operation procedure
Using the MODE SELECT switch, select the rapid traverse feed mode.
Using the RAPID TRAVERSE OVERRIDE switch, set any desired override value.
To move the controlled axis, turn ON the FEED AXIS SELECT switch. The
controlled axis is moved while the switch is turned ON.
When the switch is turned OFF, the controlled axis stops with deceleration.
(Note 1) The override value set by using the CUTTING FEED OVERRIDE switch is not effective for the
rapid traverse feedrate; when the override value is 0%, the controlled axis does not move.
