Programming manual

Activates the C axis (G15).

The preparatory function G15 activates the C axis so it can machine on the side of the part or on its face.

This feature is optional and requires a software that can control 4 or more axes.

In order to use this preparatory function, it is necessary to set one of the axes of the machine as

C axis (general machine parameter P0 through P7) and define that axis as a regular rotary axis (C axis machine parameter "AXISTYPE").

When activating the C axis with preparatory function G15, the CNC executes a home search on the

C axis if it was working as a spindle before. If it was already in C axis mode, the home search will not be carried out.

The G15 function is modal and it will keep active the spindle logic output "CAXIS (M5955) all the time while the C axis is active.

No more auxiliary functions may be programmed in the same block that defined function G15.

The CNC cancels the C axis and it returns it to spindle mode after executing one of these spindle functions (M03, M04, M05, etc.).

Also, if general machine parameter "PERCAX=NO", the CNC will also cancel the C function after turning the CNC off and back on, after an emergency or reset or after executing functions M02 and

M30.
