18.1 General User Parameters
General user parameters are machine parameters affecting TNC
settings that the user may want to change in accordance with his
requirements.
Some examples of user parameters are:
îš„ Dialog language
îš„ Interface behavior
îš„ Traversing speeds
îš„ Sequence of machining
îš„ Effect of overrides
Input possibilities for machine parameters
Machine parameters can be programmed as
îš„ Decimal numbers
Enter only the number
îš„ Pure binary numbers
Enter a percent sign (%) before the number
îš„ Hexadecimal numbers
Enter a dollar sign ($) before the number
Example:
Instead of the decimal number 27 you can also enter the binary
number %11011 or the hexadecimal number $1B.
The individual machine parameters can be entered in the different
number systems.
Some machine parameters have more than one function. The input
value for these machine parameters is the sum of the individual
values. For these machine parameters the individual values are
preceded by a plus sign.
Selecting general user parameters
General user parameters are selected with code number 123 in the
MOD functions.
The MOD functions also include machine-specific user
parameters.
