Tool Offsets
Each tool offset has a length (H) and radius (D) along with associated wear
values.
#2001-#2200 H geometry offsets (1-200) for length.
#2200-#2400 H geometry wear (1-200) for length.
#2401-#2600 D geometry offsets (1-200) for diameter.
#2601-#2800 D geometry wear (1-200) for diameter.
Programmable Messages
#3000 Alarms can be programmed. A programmable alarm will act like the built-
in alarms. An alarm is generated by setting macro variable #3000 to a number
between 1 and 999.
#3000= 15 (MESSAGE PLACED INTO ALARM LIST);
When this is done, “Alarm” ashes at the bottom of the display and the text in
the next comment is placed into the alarm list. The alarm number (in this exam-
ple, 15) is added to 1000 and used as an alarm number. If an alarm is generat-
ed in this manner all motion stops and the program must be reset to continue.
Programmable alarms are always numbered between 1000 and 1999. The rst
34 characters of the comment are used for the alarm message.
Timers
Two timers can be set to a value by assigning a number to the respective
variable. A program can then read the variable and determine the time passed
since the timer was set. Timers can be used to imitate dwell cycles, determine
part-to-part time or wherever time-dependent behavior is desired.
#3001 Millisecond Timer - The millisecond timer is updated every 20 millisec-
onds and thus activities can be timed with an accuracy of only 20 milliseconds.
At Power On, the millisecond timer is reset. The timer has a limit of 497 days.
The whole number returned after accessing #3001 represents the number of
milliseconds.
#3002 Hour Timer - The hour timer is similar to the millisecond timer except
that the number returned after accessing #3002 is in hours. The hour and mil-
lisecond timers are independent of each other and can be set separately.
System Overrides
#3003 Variable 3003 is the Single Block Suppression parameter. It overrides
the Single Block function in G-code. In the following example Single Block
is ignored when #3003 is set equal to 1. After M3003 is set =1, each G-code
command (lines 2-5) are executed continuously even though the Single Block
function is ON. When #3003 is set equal to zero, Single Block will operate as
