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 character

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.

Calculation examples

100 + (67*3) 100+67*3

Introduction

1.4 Pocket calculator

To calculate auxiliary points on a contour, the pocket calculator provides the following func­tions:

S calculating the tangential transition between a circle sector and a straight line
S moving a point in a plane
S converting polar coordinates into Cartesian coordinates
S adding the second end point of a contour section ’straight line – straight line’ given via an-

gular interrelation.

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.

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.

Fig. 1-4 Calculation of a point on a circle

Enter the circle center, the angle of the tangent and the radius of the circle.

Use the softkeys G2 / G3 to define the direction of rotation of the circle.

The values of abscissa and ordinate are calculated. The abscissa is the first axis of the plane, and
the ordinate the second axis of the plane.

Example

If plane G17 is active, the abscissa is the X axis, and the ordinate the Y axis.

The value of the abscissa is copied into that input field from which the pocket calculator func­tion has been called, and the ordinate value into the next following input field.

The origin of the coordinate system is the machine zero.
All axes are in zero position at this point. This point is merely a reference point determined by
the machine manufacturer. It need not to be approachable.

The traversing range of the machine axes can be negative.

Workpiece coordinate system (WCS)

The workpiece coordinate system described above (see Fig. 1-8) 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
know the real movement conditions on the machine, i.e. whether the workpiece or the tool
moves; this can be different in the individual axes.
The definition of the directions is based on the assumption that the workpiece does not move
and the tool moves.

Current workpiece coordinate system

If the programmer feels that it is better to continue his geometrical descriptions from another
zero than the initially selected zero (workpiece zero), he can define a new zero using the pro­grammable zero offset. Reference is always made to the original zero.
The use of the programmable zero offset provides a completely new current workpiece coor­dinate system. The current workpiece coordinate system can also be turned to the original
workpiece coordinate system (see Section “Programmable Zero Offset and Rotation”).

Introduction

Workpiece clamping

To machine the workpiece, it is clamped on the machine. The workpiece must be aligned such
that the axes of the workpiece coordinate system run in parallel with the machine axes. Any
resultant offset of the machine zero is determined for each axis and entered into the intended
data areas 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 ...”).

booted, you are in the “Machine” operating area, in the Jog operating mode.

The Reference point approach window is active.

3.4 Determining the tool offsets

3.4 Determining the tool offsets

Functionality

This function can be used to determine the unknown geometry of a tool T.

Prerequisite

The appropriate tool has been changed. In JOG mode, approach a point on the machine, from
which you knw the machine coordinates, with the edge of the tool. This can be a workpiece
with a knwon position. The machine coordinate value can be split into two components: stored
zero offset and offset.

Procedure

Enter the offset value in the intended Offset field. Then select the required zero offset (e.g.
G54) or G500 if no zero offset is to be calculated. These entries must be made for each selec­ted axis (see Fig. 3–5).
Please note the following: For milling tools, length 1 and the radius must be determined, and
for drilling tools only length 1.

Using the actual position of point F (machine coordinate), the offset entry and the selected
zero offset Gxx (position of the edge), the control system can calculate the assigned compen­sation value of length 1 or the tool radius.

Note: You can also use a zero offset already determined (e.g. G54 value) as the known ma­chine coordinate. In this case, approach the workpiece zero with the edge of the tool. If the
edge stands directly at the workpiece zero, the offset value is zero.
