Haas Renishaw Inspection Plus

Renishaw Inspection Plus adapted for Haas NGC controls. Cycles are called via G65 P98xx with the same cycle numbers as Fanuc, but variable numbering is completely different: outputs live in #185–#199 and calibration data in #556–#597. Haas uses G103 P1 for look-ahead suppression (embedded in settings macro O9724).

Common Optional Inputs

Most measuring cycles accept these optional letter-address inputs:

Input	Description	Notes
`H h`	Tolerance on feature dimension	Exceeding triggers `#3006` alarm
`M m`	True position tolerance (cylindrical zone)	Evaluated as radial error
`Q q`	Overtravel distance	Default: 4 mm (Z), 10 mm (X/Y)
`S s`	Work offset number to update	S1–S6 = G54–G59; S154.01–S154.99
`T t`	Tool offset number to update	Type C: E1–E100 length, E401–E500 radius
`W w`	Print data (DPRNT)	W1. = feature #; W2. = component #
`E e`	Experience value	Spare tool offset # storing adjustment
`F f`	Percent feedback	0–1 fraction for tool offset update
`U u`	Upper tolerance limit	No offset update if exceeded
`V v`	Null band	Dead zone—no offset if error within this range
`R r`	Radial clearance (external features)	Default 5 mm. `R-r` = force internal

Cycle Input Arguments

O9810 — Protected Positioning

Monitors probe trigger during all positioning moves. Collision triggers #3000 = 86(PATH OBSTRUCTED). Feedrate F is modal—once set, it persists across subsequent O9810 calls.

Input	Req?	Description
`X x`	Yes	Target X position
`Y y`	Yes	Target Y position
`Z z`	Yes	Target Z position
`F f`	Modal	Feedrate for all protected moves
`M m`	Opt	M1. = flag mode: sets `#198 = 7` on trigger instead of alarm

O9811 — Single Surface Measurement

Input	Req?	Description
`X x` / `Y y` / `Z z`	One required	Nominal surface position (one axis per call)
Plus common optional inputs: H, M, Q, S, T, W, E, F, U, V

O9812 — Web / Pocket Measurement

Input	Req?	Description
`X x` / `Y y`	One required	Nominal feature size in X or Y
`Z z`	Opt	Absolute Z for web (external). Omit = pocket.
`R r`	Opt	Radial clearance for external. R-r = force internal.
Plus common optional inputs: H, M, Q, S, T, W, E, F, U, V

O9814 — Bore / Boss Measurement

Four-touch measurement (X+, X−, Y+, Y−). Omit Z for bore; include Z for boss.

Input	Req?	Description
`D d`	Yes	Nominal diameter of feature
`Z z`	Opt	Absolute Z for boss (external). Omit = bore.
`R r`	Opt	Radial clearance for boss. R-r = force internal.
Plus common optional inputs: H, M, Q, S, T, W, E, F, U, V

Calibration Cycles

Cycle	Required Inputs	Purpose
`O9801`	`Z z` (ref surface), `T t` (tool offset #)	Calibrate probe length
`O9802`	`D d` (bore diameter), opt `Z z` for external	Calibrate X/Y stylus offsets → `#558`, `#559`
`O9803`	`D d` (gauge diameter), opt `Z z`, `S s`	Standard ball radius → `#556`, `#557`
`O9804`	`D d` (gauge diameter), opt `Z z`, `S s`	Vector ball radius → `#556`–`#557` + `#566`–`#573`

Calibration order: O9801 (length) → O9802 (X/Y offsets) → O9803 or O9804 (ball radius). Use O9804 if you will use vector cycles (O9821/O9822/O9823).

Calibration Variables

Stored in persistent common variables #556–#597 (base 556). These survive power-off.

Variable	Name	Description
`#556`	XRAD	X calibration ball radius
`#557`	YRAD	Y calibration ball radius
`#558`	XOFF	X-axis stylus offset
`#559`	YOFF	Y-axis stylus offset
`#562`	BMCF	Back-off distance (basic move control factor)
`#565`	—	Active vector radius (for O9821/O9822/O9823)
`#566`–`#573`	VRAD	Vector calibration radii at 30° intervals
`#574`–`#577`	K1	Multi-stylus K1 store (XRAD, YRAD, XOFF, YOFF)
`#578`–`#581`	K2	Multi-stylus K2 store
`#582`–`#589`	K11	Vector multi-stylus K11 store
`#590`–`#597`	K12	Vector multi-stylus K12 store

Skip Signal & Internal Variables

On Haas, skip positions are stored by the basic move macro O9726 into common variables (not system variables like Fanuc):

Variable	Description
`#174`	Stored X skip position (from O9726)
`#175`	Stored Y skip position
`#176`	Stored Z skip position
`#177`	X average skip position (from O9721 X diameter move)
`#178`	Y average skip position (from O9722 Y diameter move)
`#173`	Position zone (default 0.05 mm). Prevents false reads at accel/decel.

Standard two-touch: gauge feedrate = 100 mm/min (3.94 in/min), measuring uncertainty ≈ 0.002 mm. One-touch option: default 500 mm/min, uncertainty proportional to feedrate.

Error & Alarm Handling

`#198` — Out-of-Tolerance Flag

Value	Meaning	Offset Update?
0	No error / no probe trigger (O9810 flag mode)	—
1	OUT OF TOL / OUT OF POS / ANGLE OUT OF TOL	Yes (after cycle start)
2	OUT OF POS	Yes (after cycle start)
3	UPPER TOL EXCEEDED	No
4	ANGLE OUT OF TOL	Yes (after cycle start)
5	DIA OFFSET TOO LARGE	Yes (after cycle start)
6	EXCESS STOCK	No
7	Probe triggered (O9810 flag mode)	—

Flag-only mode: set #170 to 7 (radius) or 23 (diameter) to suppress alarms and only set #198. Intended for FMS/unmanned operation—your program must check #198 after each cycle.

`#3000` Reset Alarms (Program Stop)

Alarm #	Message	Cause
86	PATH OBSTRUCTED	Probe triggered during O9810 move
88	NO FEED RATE	O9810 called without F input
89	NO TOOL LENGTH ACTIVE	G43/G44 not active before probe cycle
91	FORMAT ERROR / INPUT MISSING	Required input not supplied or conflicting inputs
92	PROBE OPEN	Probe already triggered before move
93	PROBE FAIL	Probe did not trigger during move
101	PROBE START UP FAILURE	O9832 failed to activate probe after 4 attempts

`#3006` Cycle-Start-to-Continue Alarms

Message	Condition
OUT OF TOL	Feature size outside H tolerance
OUT OF POS	Position outside M true position tolerance
ANGLE OUT OF TOL	Angle outside B tolerance
UPPER TOL EXCEEDED	Exceeds U upper tolerance (no offset update)
EXCESS STOCK	Stock exceeds U limit (no offset update)
DIA OFFSET TOO LARGE	Diameter offset correction too large
PROBE SWITCH OFF FAILURE	O9833 could not deactivate probe
