SETTINGS
June 1999
96-8000
When Setting 74 and Setting 75 are both ON, the control acts normally. That is, all blocks executed are
highlighted and displayed and when in single block mode there is a pause before each block is executed.
When Setting 74 and Setting 75 are both OFF, the control will execute 9000 series subroutines without
displaying the blocks contained in that subroutine If the control is in single block mode, no single block pause
will occur within a 9000 series subroutine.
When Setting 75 is ON and Setting 74 is OFF, then 9000 series subroutines will be displayed as they are
executed.
76 TOOL RELEASE LOCK OUT
When this setting is set to ON, the tool release key is disabled. The default setting is OFF.
77 SCALE INTEGER F
This setting aids those wishing to run programs developed on a control other than HAAS. It allows the operator
to select how the control interprets an F address code that does not contain a decimal point, (It is recom-
mended that the programmer always use a decimal point). The setting can be set to the following values:
DEFAULT - F12 is interpreted as .0012 units/minute.
INTEGER -12.0  
.1 - îš“ îš“ 1.2 îš“ îš“
.01 - îš“ îš“ .12 îš“ îš“
.001 - îš“ îš“ .012 îš“ îš“
.0001 - îš“ îš“ .0012 îš“ îš“
The default setting is DEFAULT.
78 FIFTH-AXIS ENABLE
When this setting is off, the fifth axis is disabled and no commands can be sent to that axis. When off is not
selected, 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.
79 FIFTH-AXIS DIAMETER
This is a numeric entry. It is used to set the angular feed rate of the B-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 B-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.
80 MIRROR IMAGE B-AXIS
This is an On/Off setting. When it is off, axes motions occur normally. When it is on, the B axis motion is
mirrored (or reversed) around the work zero point.
81 TOOL AT POWER DOWN
When the POWER DOWN key is pressed, the control will change to the tool specified in this setting. If zero
(0) is specified, no tool change occurs at power down. 1 is the default.
82 LANGUAGE
This setting allows the user to change between available languages. If the language selected does not reside
in the control, NOT AVAILABLE will be displayed in the message area when that language is selected.
