Parameter 312 CAROUSEL BUMP TIME
This parameter supports the serpentine type 1 and the Disk type 1 tool changers. During tool change
recovery, the carousel may be moved a small amount by pressing the ATC FWD or ATC REV key. Each
press of the key will cause the carousel motors to run for the amount of time (in milliseconds) specified by
this parameter. For vertical mills without a serpentine type 1 or Disk type 1 side- mount tool changer, this
parameter should be set to 0.
