LANGUAGE (P122)
Defines the work language.
GEOMTYPE (P123)
It indicates whether the cutter geometry is associated with the tool (T) or with the tool offset (D).
The "T" function, tool number, indicates the magazine position it occupies.
The "D" function, offset, indicates the tool dimensions.
When using a tool holding turret, the same turret position is usually used by several tools. In those
cases, the "T" function refers to the turret position and the "D" function to the dimensions and
geometry of the tool occupying that position. Thus, "GEOMTYPE=1".
SPOSTYPE (P124)
It indicates whether the spindle is oriented in the canned cycles either using the M19 function or
using the "C" axis.
When the machine uses a "C" axis, it is recommended to always orient the spindle using the "C"
axis since better accuracy is achieved that way.
AUXSTYPE (P125)
It indicates whether the live tool is handled with the M45 function or like a second spindle (G28
function).
When a live tool uses several work gear, it must be used like a second spindle. To do that:
• Set "AUXSTYPE (P125)=1".
• Define the machine parameters of the second spindle to set the live tool.
• Use the G28 function to select the live tool.
In the mill model, with "AUXSTYPE (P125)=1" and "STOPTAP (P116)=YES" it is possible to
interrupt the execution of the drilling and tapping canned cycles by means of the general inputs
/STOP (M5001), /FEEDHOL (M5002) and /XFERINH (M5003).
