Measurement File Options
Measurement file options are the same for all the controller types. Reference point is the distance between machine tool axes reference point and the start point of the measurement. If measurement file includes several measurement runs (sets) they all are listed in a Measurement set(s) listbox. It is possible to select just one or several sets for the compensation. If more than one set is selected the average of all selected measurement sets are used for the compensation.
Parameters Options
Axes Name
Axes name is used as given in the compensation file.
Compensation interval
Compensation interval defines how many compensation
points are calculated. There is no need to use more
compensation points then the measurement points because
the controller calculates the compensation points between
the measurement points automatically.
Encoder number
It is possible to use different compensations for
different encoders. The encoder number defines which
encoder is used.
System unit accuracy
System unit accuracy defines how many decimals are shown
on the parameter file.
Calculation
The calculation is done by pressing the CALCULATE toolbar button.
Results
Calculation results are shown on the right side of the form. The actual compensation file format is shown on the lower right corner of the window.
Saving the compensation parameter file
Compensation parameter file is saved by pressing the SAVE toolbar button after which the save file dialog is opened.
