26 SERIAL NUMBER
This is a numeric entry. It is the serial number of your machine. It cannot be changed.
27 G76/G77 SHIFT DIR.
This setting controls the shift direction used to clear a boring tool during a G76 or G77 canned cycle. The
possible selections are: X+, X-, Y+, or Y-.
28 CAN CYCLE ACT W/O X/Y
This is an On/Off setting. When it is off, an initial canned cycle definition without an X or Y motion will not
cause the canned cycle to be executed. When it is on, the initial canned cycle definition will cause one cycle
to be executed even if there is no X or Y motion in that command block. Note that if an L0 is in that block, it
will never execute the canned cycle on the definition line.
29 G91 NON-MODAL
This is an On/Off setting. When it is off, the machine operates normally. When it is on, G91 is not modal and
applies only to the command block on which it occurs.
30 4TH AXIS ENABLE
When it is off, the fourth axis is disabled and no commands can be sent to that axis. When off is not se-
lected, the selected rotary table type parameters are called up. A change to rotary parameters is saved under
the selected table type for later recall. In order to change this setting the servos must be turned off.
31 RESET PROGRAM POINTER
This is an On/Off setting. When it is off, the RESET button will not change the execution program pointer.
When it is on, a RESET will change the program execution pointer to the beginning of the program.
32 COOLANT OVERRIDE
This setting controls how the coolant pump operates. The possible selections are: NORMAL, OFF, or IG-
NORE. The "NORMAL" setting allows the operator to turn the pump on and off manually or with M codes. The
"OFF" setting will generate an alarm if an attempt is made to turn the coolant on manually or from a program.
The "IGNORE" setting will ignore all coolant commands, but the pump can be turned on manually.
33 COORDINATE SYSTEM
This setting changes the way the G92/G52 offset system works. It can be set to FANUC, HAAS, or YASNAC.
The Fanuc and HAAS class of controls uses the G52 offset differently than the Yasnac class of controls. In a
Fanuc or HAAS control, G52 sets a local coordinate system. In a Yasnac control, the G52 stands on its own
as another work offset.
34 4th AXIS DIAMETER
This is a numeric entry. It is used to set the angular feed rate of the A-axis. It must be in the range of 0.0 to
29.9999 inches. Since the feed rate specified in a program is always inches per minute (or mm per minute), the
control must know the diameter of the part being worked in the A-axis in order to compute the angular feed
rate. When this setting is set correctly, the surface feed rate on a rotary cut will be exactly the feed rate
programmed into the control. The feed rate will be correct only as long as the axis remains orthogonal (at right
angles) to all other axes.
35 G60 OFFSET
This is a numeric entry in the range of 0.0 to 0.9999 inches. It is used to specify the amount of overshoot when
unidirectional positioning (G60) is programmed.
