The following applies to alteration of a reversal point position: When an oscillation movement
is already in progress, the altered position of a reversal point does not become effective until
this point is approached again. If the axis is already approaching the position, the correction
will take effect in the next oscillation stroke.
Note
If a reversal point must be altered at the same time as VDI interface signal
set, the handwheel signals are applied both to the DRF offset and to the offset of the
reversal point, i.e. the reversal point is shifted absolutely by an amount corresponding to
twice the distance.
Stop times
A stop time can be programmed via setting data for every reversal point.
The setting can be changed in the following blocks of the NC program. It is then effectively
block synchronous from the next reversal point.
Stop time can be changed asynchronously via setting data. It is then effective from the
instant that the appropriate reversal point is next traversed.
The following table explains the motional behavior in the exact stop range or at the reversal
point, depending on the stop time input.

Deactivate oscillation
One of the following options can be set for termination of the oscillation movement when
oscillation mode is deactivated:
● Termination of oscillation movement at the next reversal point
● Termination of oscillation movement at reversal point 1
● Termination of oscillation movement at reversal point 2
Following this termination process, sparking-out strokes are processed and an end position
approached if programmed.
On switchover from asynchronous oscillation to spark-out and during spark-out, the
response at the reversal point regarding exact stop corresponds to the response determined
by the stop time programmed for the appropriate reversal point. A sparking-out stroke is the
movement towards the other reversal point and back. See table:
