The Parameter Display organization has been modified to accommodate the extra axis parameters. Parameter
numbers have remained the same as in a four-axis control. Additional parameters have been added for the fifth.
wThe parameters have been reorganized, so that logically-associated parameters are grouped together. These
logical groupings are placed together into contiguous screens called pages. The most commonly changed
parameters have been placed at the beginning of the page list. A list of the parameter pages and the order of
succession in the control are given below.
PAGE TITLE DATA DESCRIPTION
COMMON SWTCH Non-axis bit switches.
COMMON PAGE1 First page of non-axis parameters.
COMMON PAGE2 Second page of non-axis parameters.
COMMON PAGE3 Third page of non-axis parameters.
MACRO M CALL Parameters that alias M codes to subroutines.
MACRO G CALL Parameters that alias G codes to macros.
X BIT SWITCH Bit switches for the X axis.
X PARAMETERA First page of X axis parameters.
X PARAMETERB Second page of X axis parameters.
Y BIT SWITCH Bit switches for the Y axis.
Y PARAMETERA First page of Y axis parameters.
Y PARAMETERB Second page of Y axis parameters.
Z BIT SWITCH Bit switches for the Z axis.
Z PARAMETERA First page of Z axis parameters.
Z PARAMETERB Second page of Z axis parameters.
A BIT SWITCH Bit switches for the A axis.
A PARAMETERA First page of A axis parameters.
B BIT SWITCH Bit switches for the B axis.
B PARAMETERA First page of B axis parameters.
B PARAMETERB Second page of B axis parameters.
X SCREW COMP X axis screw compensation value.
Y SCREW COMP Y axis screw compensation value.
Z SCREW COMP Z axis screw compensation value.
The HOME key displays the first parameter page COMMON SWTCH. Pressing the PAGE DOWN key will
display the next page of parameters in the above list. The END key displays the last parameter page B
PARAMETERB. Pressing the PAGE UP key will display the preceding page of parameters in the above list.
All other features on the parameters display have remained the same. So, if you are unfamiliar with the new
format of the parameters, you can still search by parameter number. Enter the number of the parameter you
want to see or view and press the up or down arrow key. The page that the parameter is on will be displayed
and the parameter being searched for will be highlighted.
