6.14.2 Interruptible Conditions
(1) The automatic handle interrupt function allows you to interrupt the program manually by selecting the
manual handle mode in automatic mode selection (tape, memory, MDI, etc.). However the interrupt
cannot be generated from the manual handle when an automatic reference point return command (G28,
G29, G30), the thread cutting (G33), or the skip command (G31) has been executed or when tapping in
the tapping cycle.
(2) If automatic operation mode such as tape, memory, or MDI is being selected even when an automatic
operation pause (including a block stop) is established, automatic handle interruption is enabled.
(3) If the axis is moved during dwell (G04) command processing by using automatic handle interruption,
the dwell count operation will stop. A check is made for that the axis movement has been completed,
then the dwell count operation continues.
(4) Automatic handle interruption is enabled even if automatic machine lock has been set. If manual
machine lock has been set, the machine does not move; it only updates the POSITION display. If
manual machine lock has not been set, the machine moves by the interruption distance by the manual
handle and the POSITION display is updated.
(5) This function is disabled for an axis to which the interlock signal has been input or an axis, the
interruption direction of which is the soft limit.
6.14.3 Interruption Effective Axis
(1) Automatic handle interruption is enabled only for axes to which manual handle axis selection has been
input.
(2) Automatic handle interruption is enabled for a maximum of three axes. (The number of axes is
restricted by the number of handles.)
