2.5.7 Path-handwheel
Operating manual
The "path handwheel" mode acts when the switch is in one of the handwheel positions. With this
feature, it is possible to jog two axes of the plane at the same time along a linear path (chamfer)
or circular path (rounding) with a single handwheel. The CNC assumes as the path handwheel the
general handwheel or, when this one is missing, the one associated with the X axis.

This feature must be managed from the PLC. This feature is usually activated and deactivated by
means of an external push-button or a key configured for that purpose, as well as the selection of the
type of path.
The next example uses the [O2] key to activate and deactivate the path-handwheel mode
and the [O3] key to indicate the type of movement.
Activate / deactivate the path-handwheel mode.
DFU B29 R561 = CPL M5054
It selects the type of movement, straight section or arc section.
DFU B31 R561 = CPL M5053
While in handwheel mode and having selected path-handwheel, the CNC shows the following
information:
For a linear movement (top figure), the path angle must be defined and for an arc (bottom figure),
the center coordinates must be indicated. To define these variables, press the [F] key and then one
of these keys: [] [] [] [].
Operation in path-handwheel mode
When selecting the path handwheel mode, the CNC behaves as follows.
If there is a general handwheel, it will be the one working in path handwheel mode. The individual
handwheels, if any, will remain associated with the corresponding axes.
If there is no general handwheel, the individual handwheel associated with the X axis then works
in path-handwheel mode.
The movements in path-handwheel may be aborted by pressing the [STOP] key or setting the jog
switch to one of the continuous or incremental positions.
