how to increase speed?

Hi All
I use PC-DMIS CAD++ 2019 R1 on B&S 5.7.5, its absolute speed is 700 (this is what I see when I open F5 ). Most of our programs run with speed 200-300mm/s. I changed it to 500 in program edit window but didn't see any difference.
I searched forum and found information that I can change speed in machine interface setup, so I did, under "Params" tab I changed x,y,z max speed to 500. But I couldn't run any program. Right after I start it gives me execution error "move absolute to...." no even error#. Is this speed limited somewhere else?
Please help
Thanks,
Ewa

  • also, per 's post above, there's an option checkbox to use absolute speeds, rather than the default % of the CMM's hard-coded MAX speed (hard-limited by the device controller firmware).
    Some people prefer the % of max default, it works best if you are using multiple CMM's with varying speeds, to measure the same product.
    Otherwise, the absolute speeds would be ideal if you only have 1 CMM or don't share routines between CMM's.

    -When you select use ABSOLUTE speeds, that value is limited by the value that the controller forces. if you set it to 1000 and your CMM's linear max speed is 500, it will only run at 500, regardless of the higher value. If you set it to 400, it will run at 80% of max (400/500=0.8).

    -When you deselect use ABSOLUTE speeds, the max value you can input is 100, which is now a percentage of the hard-coded max speed.
