1.4 Pocket calculator
This function can be activated for all input fields intended for entry of
numerical values by means of the “=” character. To calculate the required
value, you can use the four basic arithmetic operations, and the functions sine,
cosine, squaring, as well as the square root function.
If the input field is already loaded with a value, this function writes the value in
the input line of the pocket calculator.
Fig. 1-3 Pocket calculator
Permissible characters
The following characters are permitted for input:
+ Value X plus value Y
- Value X minus value Y
* Value X multiplied with value Y
/ Value X divided by value Y
S Sine function
The value X in front of the input cursor is replaced by the value sin(X).
C Cosine function
The value X in front of the input cursor is replaced by the value cos(X).
Q Square function
The value X in front of the input cursor is replaced by the value X
R Square root function
The value X in front of the input cursor is replaced by the value √X.

The calculation is carried out by pressing the Input key. The softkey function OK
will accept the result into the input field, quitting the calculator automatically .
To calculate auxiliary points on a contour, the calculator provides the following
functions:
z calculating the tangential transition between a circle sector and a straight
line
z moving a point in a plane
z converting polar coordinates into Cartesian coordinates
z adding the second end point of a contour section ‘straight line - straight
line’ given via angular interrelation.

Introduction
These functions are directly linked with the input fields of the programming
support. Any values in this input field are written by the pocket calculator into
the input line, and the result is automatically copied into the input fields of the
programming support.
Softkeys
This function is used to calculate a point on a circle. The point results from the
angle of the created tangent and the direction of rotation of the circle.

Introduction
1.5 Coordinate systems
Right-handed, rectangular coordinate systems are used for machin e tools.
Such systems describe the movements on the machine as a relative motion
between tool and workpiece.
Fig.1-8 Specification of the axis directions to one another; coordinate system
when programming for turning.
Machine coordinate The orientation of the coordinate system on the machine depends on the
particular
system (MCS)
machine type. It can be turned to various positions.
Fig. 1-9 Machine coordinates/axes on a turning machine
The origin of this coordinate system is the machine zero.
All axes are in the zero position at this point. This point is merely a reference
point determined by the machine manufacturer. It does not need to be
approachable.
The traversing range of the machine axes can be negative.

Workpiece clamping To machine the workpiece, it is clamped in the machine. The workpiece must
be aligned such that the axes of the workpiece coordinate system are in
parallel with the machine axes. Any resultant offset of the machine zero to the
workpiece zero is determined in the Z axis and entered in a specially provided
data area for the settable zero offset. This offset is activated during the NC
program execution by means, for example, of a programmable G54 (see
Section “Workpiece Clamping - Settable Zero Offset ...”).

Approach
Notice
Before you switch on the SINUMERIK and the machines, you should also
have read the machine documentation, since turning on and reference point
approach are machine-dependent functions.
Operating sequence First switch on the power supply of the CNC and of the machine. After the
control system has booted, you are in the “Machine” operating area, in the Jog
operating mode.
The Reference point approach window is active.
Fig.2-1 Jog Ref basic screen
Reference-point approach can only be executed in the Jog Ref mode.
Activate the “Approach reference point” function by selecting the Ref key on
the machine control panel area.
In the “Reference point approach” window (Fig. NO TAG), it is displayed
whether or not the axes have to be referenced.

Preliminary remarks Before you can use the CNC, set up the machine, tools, etc. on the CNC by:
z entering the tools and tool offsets
z entering/modifying the zero offset
z entering the setting data
3.1 Entering tools and tool offsets
Functionality The tool offsets consist of several data that describe the geometry, wear and
tool type.
Each tool has a defined number of parameters depending on the tool type.
Each tool is identified by its own tool number (T number).
See also Section 8.6 “Tool and Tool Offset”.
Operating sequences
This function opens the Tool Compensation Data window, which contains the
offset values of the currently active tool. If you select another tool using the
“<<T “ or “T>>” softkeys, the setting remains when you quit the window.
