– With PLC
Traversing of the axis to be measured is enabled in addition to the
interface signals typical for JOG mode depending on the interface signal.
"Drive test traversing enable".
The measuring functions have their own traversing range monitoring. This tra-
versing range monitoring can be used to limit or monitor the traversing range of
an axis to be measured without referencing this axis.
The basis is the absolute axis position displayed in the "Status" group at the
time of measurement.
The traversing range monitoring is activated from the main menu of the ap-
propriate measuring function in the group "Traversing range". See Fig. 10-37,
page 10-395.
Choose the type of traversing range monitoring from the selection list "Monitor-
ing" either using the Toggle key or by clicking with the right mouse button on
the desired type of traversing range monitoring:
– Inactive
The axis is traversed without monitoring of the traversing range.
– Active
The axis is traversed with monitoring of the traversing range, depending
on the traversing range limits set:
– Upper limit
– Lower limit.
