Which products are affected?
Function restriction eliminated on the 9300EP servo positioning controller as of versions V2.5 and V6.1.
Eliminated function restriction
If Touch Probe positioning has been interrupted by a controller inhibit or quick stop, the TP was no longer initialised properly after continuation of TP positioning (signal to Prg-Start) so it was
not evaluated either.
Now TP positioning is also executed properly after an interruption.
Possible diagnostics?
Interrupt TP positioning before occurrence of the TP by controller inhibit. Then check whether there is a response to the TP after repeated Prg-Start.
Short-term measures/recommendations?
After the interruption perform a program reset in order to restart TP positioning again.
Evaluation:
The phenomenon only occurs in the event of an interruption by CINH or QSP so a program reset will be acceptable here. If not, change the firmware by means of a download.
