INTRODUCTION
Gauge computer used to control the grinding cycle. It can be customized to a variety
of applications and measuring heads. The gauge can control and integrate touch
probes and ultrasonic microphones in order to monitor air gap and crash protection.
The gauge processes the signals coming from the measuring head/s and/or the
various sensors and supplies information on the measurement to the machine’s logic
system. There are up to 7 outputs (controls) for changing feed rates and when the
zero size of the workpiece is reached to retract the grinding wheel.
Optional features include TIR, Ovality, Remspeed and Stock Removal.
1.1.
Operator Guide
This guide is customized to the grinding machine on which the gauge is installed and
describes its specific measurement application.
This guide was written for the machine operator. It will also be useful for plant
personnel who must perform maintenance and assistance technicians.
This guide describes the following gauge operator functions:
Selecting part types and cycles.
Viewing the measurement screens.
Zeroing the gauge system.
Correcting the measuring cycle zero.
Viewing and modifying the grinding cycle controls.
1.2.
Conventions
Conventions are standard methods of representing components or functions.
1.2.1.
Interface between gauge and user
The gauge software uses graphics and/or icons to show the various functions and
make comprehension and use easy and intuitive.
Other conventions used in this program are:
Numbers or text inside a dotted line can be changed.
Icons or text that appear as a phantom image (or grayed out) cannot be selected
on that page or are not available for the application and its options.
1.2.2.
Operator Guide
In order to make this guide easy to use, several typographical conventions were
chosen:
Folders, sub-folders and page names are in Italics.
Numbers or choices that can be changed are within quotes; i.e. “100 µm".
Front panel keys or software buttons are shown using the actual icon.
Section title references within the text are in bold.
Names of operator functions are followed by their icon.

HOW THE GAUGE IS ORGANIZED
2.1.
Operating modes
The gauge has two modes of operation – automatic and manual.
MODE ICON FUNCTIONS
Automatic
Used during the grinding cycle for:
Monitoring workpiece size.
Viewing the zero values summary.
Viewing the measurement application.
Viewing or changing the control points.
Making zero (size) adjustment.
Manual
Used for:
Monitoring workpiece size.
Viewing the zero values summary.
Viewing the measurement application.
Changing the control points.
Making zero (size) adjustment.
Zeroing the gauge system.
Changing damping values for interrupted surfaces.
2.2.
Software structure
The gauge Software is divided into folders. Similar functions are grouped into sub-
folders. Related sub-folders are contained in folders. Each matter takes one or more
pages of a sub-folder.
Each page, sub-folder and folder is assigned an icon.
Each folder has three sections:
Icons across the top indicate the folder.
Sub-folders contained in the folder.
Messages and information along the bottom.

Folders
Seven main folders contain all the functions of the gauge.
FOLDER NAME ICON FUNCTION MODE
Viewing Viewing of measurements, zeroing

ming.
General
Adjustments
Gives access to the pages for zero
adjustments and modification of control
points value.
Utilities Gives access to the following
environments:
-measuring head setup (mechanical
zeroing),
-electrical zeroing,
-zero adjustment,
-viewing the controls points,,
-viewing measurement damping for
interrupted surfaces,
-viewing the measurement,
-zeroing summary,
-viewing the programmed data.
Programming Gives access to the environment where
the specific measuring cycle is
parametrized.
Inputs & Outputs Allows to select the I/O’s involved in the
test bit function and gives access to
arm ratio and retraction value
autoacquisition functions (if available).
External Info Allows viewing the current configuration
for the specific application.
Note: The Viewing, General Adjustments and Utilities folders are described in
this Operator Guide. The other folders are described in the “Programming
Manual”.

The highlighted icon shows the current folder. The message in the lower left
corresponds to the selected icon, in this case, the Utilities folder.
2.4.
Sub-folders
The sub-folders are the second level of the gauge software structure, and contain
pages with similar functions.
Use or to highlight the sub-folder icon and press
Enter
to access. The
message in the lower left is the name of the highlighted sub-folder.
2.5.
Pages
The pages are the third levels of the gauge software structure. Each contains a
separate function with information and software buttons to perform that task.
In the example above, the page for viewing the measurement is shown. The
measurement is shown as a digital value and on a bargraph. Electrical zeroing can be
done from this page (zeroing button). The measuring head used has retraction, so the
status of that function is also shown.
