2.3 Test series on the machine
2.3.6 Release protocol between PLC and ePS system
Function description
Communication is performed between the ePS system and the PLC for the execu-
tion of a test. The ePS system signals that a test will be executed with axis move-
ments. The PLC can then put the machine in a suitable state and signals to the
ePS system that the test can begin.
The protocol allows test series that are to be carried out with a maintenance sche-
dule to be executed in a fully automatic manner while being monitored by the PLC.
More details are given in /R1/.
2.3.7 Contour test
Function description
A dry run is possible to ensure measurements can safely be performed on the ma-
chine. The machine operator has the option of executing a dry run with reduced ve-
locity before beginning the test run configured to a specific type. This allows the
operator to test for safety path motions (contour monitoring) of the machine axes to
avoid collisions, etc.
