TANGON Switching on tangential control for the specified slave axis / activating tangential following

Activates tangential control and sets the offset angle to the tangent. The "Slave axis" and "Angle" parameters are expected during import. The address letters of the Cartesian positions (X, Y, Z, A, B, C) are allowed as the slave axis, but are ignored in the SRL program. A floating-point number or a REAL variable is expected as the angle. INFORMATION: The "Slave axis" in tangential control is defined by the principle plane. In G-code, this must be specified by TANG or the G17 (XY), G18 (ZX) or G19 (YZ) commands.

The other functions of the tangential control cannot be parameterized via a G-code command, but must be set in the configuration. These settings are always written when the TANGON command is used in the G-code. The settings can only be seen in the SRL program. To reuse the settings for another import, the configuration must be saved to a file. For further information, refer to chapter G-Code Conversion.

Syntax: Observe Note on the syntax explanation

TANGON (<Slave axis : (X,Y,Z,A,B,C)> , <Angle: REAL>)

TANGON (<Slave axis : (X,Y,Z,A,B,C)> , <Angle: REAL-Variable>)

Example:

TANGON(X, 0)

TANGON(X, 45.5)

TANGON(X, -90.05)

TANGON(X, AngleOffset)

INFORMATION: Define AngleOffset as a G-code REAL variable. See also Use of variables.

Implementation in the SRL program:

SET_TANGENTIAL_PARA

Activate tangential control := TRUE

Angle offset from tangent := <Angle>

Limit angle for lifting and CallFunction := <Configuration tangential control: REAL / REAL Variable>

Lifting height at alignment := <Configuration tangential control: REAL / REAL Variable>

Use CallFunction at alignment := <Configuration tangential control: BOOL / BOOL Variable>

CallFunction index before alignment := <Configuration tangential control: REAL / REAL Variable>

CallFunction index after alignment := <Configuration tangential control: REAL / REAL Variable>
