12.5 Test Run
Softkey TEST can be reached on OPERATOR’S PANEL or POSITION screens. After
pressing the action menu key
F5
CONDITIONS action menu must be selected, than
softkey TEST needs to be pressed.
If NCT machine control board is used select the button.
The TEST state is indicated by caption TEST in the 8
th
field of the status bar.
When the key is activated:
– the interpolator does not command any movement on any axis towards the position control
loop, and
– no function is executed by the PLC.
The TEST state can be applied for
the syntactic and graphic test of
programs. The program execution
(the interpolation) is much faster
than it is in case of the simul-
taneous switched on state of
MACH LOCK and DRY RUN.
The position display and the
graphic position display show the
path done.
If button TEST is
inactivated, than the current axis positions can be seen again in the position display of control.

Note:
Generally the TEST button can be switched in one of the manual modes in case the
axes are in stopped state. For more turn to the machine tool builder for an information
material.
