Defining a measurement as a reference

In a reference measurement, you create the threshold values for the following:

  • Warning (warning threshold)

    If the value is exceeded, you receive a warning on the SINUMERIK control.

  • Service (service thresholds)

    If the value is reached, you receive a note on the SINUMERIK control that maintenance must be performed.

The reference measurement is always displayed, color-highlighted at the top in the measurement results table.

Requirement

  • You have executed a measurement program.

  • A valid measurement result is available.

  • You have the "OEMCommissioningEngineer" role.

Procedure

  1. On the "Configuring and Analyzing Measurements" page, click on the required measurement.
    The "Configure Measurement" page is then opened.

  2. Open the "Measurement Results" tab.

    The table of measurement results is displayed.

  3. Click the "Edit" icon in the icon list on the right-hand side.

    The "Define <timestamp> as reference measurement" dialog opens.

  4. Enter the required threshold values for the following characteristic values:

    • Equability

    • Stiffness

    • Friction

    • Backlash

    • Quadrant error

    • Signature

    • Frequency response

    NOTE

    Threshold values for equability, quadrant errors and signature

    The threshold values for equability, quadrant errors and signature are absolute values for the deviation.

    Example: If the threshold value for quadrant errors is defined to be 50 µm, and the measured value is 53 µm, then the threshold value has been exceeded.

    - OR -

    Select the checkbox "Set default thresholds" if you want to use default threshold values.

  5. To save the values as reference, click the "Save" button.

    - OR -

    To cancel the operation, click the "Abort" button.

Removing a reference

  1. On the "Configure Measurement" page, open the "Measurement Results" tab.

  2. Open the reference measurement. The reference measurement is always displayed, color-highlighted at the top.

  3. Click the "Remove Reference" button.
