This Manual contains information which you should carefully observe to ensure your own personal safety
and the prevention of material damage. The notices are highlighted by a warning triangle and, depending on
the degree of hazard, represented as shown below:
Danger
!
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
Warning
!
indicates that death or severe personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
Caution
!
with a warning triangle indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
Caution
without a warning triangle means that material damage can occur if the appropriate precautions are not
taken.
Attention
indicates that an undesired event or status can occur if the appropriate note is not observed.
If several hazards of different degrees occur, the hazard with the highest degree must always be given preference. If a warning note with a warning triangle warns of personal injury, the same warning note can also
contain a warning of material damage.

Introduction
1.3Accessibility options
Use this softkey to calculate the abscissa and ordinate values. The abscissa is the first axis of the
plane, and the ordinate is the second axis of the plane. The abscissa value is copied into the input
field from which the calculator function has been called, and the value of the ordinate is copied into
the next following input field. If the function has been called from the part program editor, the coordinates are saved with the axis names of the selected basic plane.
Example: If the G18 plane is active, the abscissa is the Z axis and the ordinate the X axis.
Example: Calculate the intersection point between the circle sector
.
Given:Radius: 10
Circle center: Z 20 X 20
Connection angle of the straight line: 45

Direction of rotation: G2
Result:X = 12.928

and the straight line
This function calculates the Cartesian coordinates of a point in the plane, which is to be connected
to a point in the plane (PP) on a straight line. For calculation, the distance between the points and
the slope angle (A2) of the new straight line to be created with reference to the slope (A1) of the
given straight line must be known.
Sthe coordinates of the given point (PP)
Sthe slope angle of the straight line (A1)
Sthe distance of the new point with reference to PP(offset)
Sthe slope angle of the connecting straight line (A2) with reference to A1
Use this softkey to calculate the Cartesian coordinates which are subsequently copied into two input
fields following one after another. The abscissa value is copied into the input field from which the
calculator function has been called, and the value of the ordinate is copied into the next following
input field.
If the function has been called from the part program editor, the coordinates are saved with the axis
names of the selected basic plane.
Example
Calculating the end point of the straight line . The straight line stands vertically on the end
point of the straight line
(Coordinates: X = 51.981, Y = 43.081) (see example: ”Converting
polar coordinates into Cartesian coordinates”). The length of the straight lines is also given.
Result: X = 68.668
Y = 26.393
This function converts the given polar coordinates into Cartesian coordinates.

Introduction
1.3Accessibility options
Use this softkey to calculate the Cartesian coordinates which are subsequently copied into two input
fields following one after another. The abscissa value is copied into the input field from which the
calculator function has been called, and the value of the ordinate is copied into the next following
input field.
If the function has been called from the part program editor, the coordinates are saved with the axis
names of the selected basic plane.
Example
Calculating the end point of the straight line . The straight line is determined by the angle
° and its length.
A=45
Result: X = 51.981
Y = 43.081
Use this function to calculate the missing end point of the straight line/straight line contour section
whereby the second straight line stands vertically on the first straight line.
The following values of the straight line are known:
Straight line 1:
Starting point and slope angle
Straight line 2:
Length and one end point in the Cartesian coordinate system
This function is used to select the given coordinate of the end point.
The ordinate value or the abscissa value is given.
The second straight line is rotated in the CW direction or in the CCW direction by 90 degrees relative to the first straight line.
This function will select the relevant end position.
The missing end point is calculated. The abscissa value is copied into the input field from which the
calculator function has been called, and the value of the ordinate is copied into the next following
input field.
If the function has been called from the part program editor, the coordinates are saved with
the axis names of the selected basic plane.
Example
Add the present drawing by the values of the center circle to be able to calculate the points of
intersection between the circle sectors. The missing coordinates of the center points are cal-
culated using the calculator function,
since the radius in the tangential transition
stands vertically on the straight line.
Calculating M1 in section 1:
In this section, the radius stands in the counterclockwise direction turned on the straight
line section.
Use the softkeys
and to select the given configuration.
Enter the coordinates of the pole (PP) P1, the slope angle of the straight line, the given
ordinate value and the circle radius as the length.

1.5Coordinate systems
For machine tools, right−handed, right−angled coordinate systems are used.
The movements on the machine are described as a relative movement between tool and
workpiece.

The origin of the coordinate system is the machine zero.
All axes have zero position. This point only represents a reference point defined by the machine manufacturer. It need not be approachable.
The traversing range of the machine axes can by in the negative range.
The coordinate system described above (see Fig. 1-12) is also used to describe the geometry
of a workpiece in the workpiece program.
The workpiece zero can be freely selected by the programmer. The programmer need not to
know the real motion relations on the machine, i.e. he need not to know whether the workpiece or the tool moves. Furthermore, it can be different from axis to axis. The directions are
always defined such if the workpiece would be resting and the tool would move.

Relative coordinate system
In addition to the machine and workpiece coordinate systems, the control system provides a
relative coordinate system. This coordinate system is used for setting freely selected reference points which have no influence on the active workpiece coordinate system. All axis
movements are displayed relative to these reference points.
Clamping the workpiece
For machining, the workpiece is clamped on the machine. The workpiece must be aligned
such that the axes of the workpiece coordinate system run in parallel with those of the machine. Any resulting offset of the machine zero with reference to the workpiece zero is determined for each axis individually and entered in the relevant data areas intended for the set-table work offset. In the NC program, this offset is activated, e.g. using a programmed G54
(see also Section ”Workpiece clamping − settable work offset, ...”).

Turning On and Reference Point Approach
Note
When you turn on the SINUMERIK 802D and the machine, please also observe the Machine Documentation, since turning on and reference point approach are machine−dependent functions.
This documentation assumes an 802D standard machine control panel (MCP). Should you use a
different MCP, the operation may be other than described herein.
Operating sequence
First, turn on the power supply of CNC and machine. After the control system has booted, you
are in the ”Position” operating area, in the Jog mode.
The ”Reference point approach” window is active.
2
Fig. 2-1The ”Jog−Ref” start screen
Use the Ref key on the machine control panel to activate ”reference point approach”.
The ”Reference point approach” window (Fig. 2-1) displays whether or not the axes have a
reference point.
