Synchronization
with various
sensor signals
WinPC-NC can synchronize the job sequence with various input
signals. The option of activating these signals depends on definition
and assignment of the signal transmissions and inputs.
The various signals and what they mean :
Start signal Following activation of the job process, WinPC-NC
waits always for a positive edge on this signal and does
not start processing the NC data until the signal
changes from LOW to HIGH.
Sensor Z WinPC-NC can wait for this signal after the Z-axis is
down lowered. The movements are not continued until the
signal is active. This signal is particularly useful with
pneumatic Z-axes.
Sensor Z WinPC-NC can wait for this signal after the Z-axis is
up raised. Movements to the next insertion point are not
continued until the signal is active.
Spindle It is possible to use this signal after the drilling spindle
speed starts to indicate when the required speed has been
reached. WinPC-NC waits until this signal goes to
HIGH before continuing the process.
Clamping This signal can be used to indicate when the workpiece
clamping is activated. The working process cannot be
started until this signal is active.
