PARAMETERS
June 1999
96-8000
Parameter 66 SPINDLE ORI DELAY
Maximum delay allowed when orienting spindle. Units are milliseconds. After this time, an
alarm is generated.
Parameter 67 GEAR CHANGE DELAY
Maximum delay allowed when changing gears. Units are milliseconds. After this time, an
alarm is generated.
Parameter 68 DRAW BAR MAX DELAY
Maximum delay allowed when clamping and unclamping tool. Units are milliseconds. After
this, time an alarm is generated.
Parameter 69 A AIR BRAKE DELAY
Delay provided for air to release from brake on A-axis prior to moving. Units are milliseconds.
Parameter 70 MIN SPIN DELAY TIME
Minimum delay time in program after commanding new spindle speed and before
proceeding. Units are milliseconds.
Parameter 71 DRAW BAR OFFSET
Offset provided in motion of Z-axis to accommodate the tool pushing out of the spindle when
unclamping tool. Units are encoder steps.
Parameter 72 DRAW BAR Z VEL UNCL
Speed of motion in Z-axis to accommodate tool pushing out of the spindle when unclamping
tool. Units are encoder steps per second.
Parameter 73 SP HIGH G/MIN SPEED
Command speed used to rotate spindle motor when orienting spindle in high gear. Units are
maximum spindle RPM divided by 4096. This parameter is not used in machines equipped
with a Haas vector drive.
Parameter 74 SP LOW G/MIN SPEED
Command speed used to rotate spindle motor when orienting spindle in low gear. Units are
maximum spindle RPM divided by 4096. This parameter is not used in machines equipped
with a Haas vector drive.
Parameter 75 GEAR CHANGE SPEED
Command speed used to rotate spindle motor when changing gears. Units are maximum
spindle RPM divided by 4096.
Parameter 76 LOW AIR DELAY
Delay allowed after sensing low air pressure before alarm is generated. Alarm skipped if air
pressure returns before delay. Units are 1/50 seconds.
Parameter 77 SP LOCK SETTLE TIME
Required time in milliseconds that the spindle lock must be in place and stable before spindle
orientation is considered complete.
