Cycle parameters
QS500 Engraving text?: Text to be engraved, inside
quotation marks. Assignment of a string variable
through the Q key of the numerical keypad. The Q
key on the ASCI keyboard represents normal text
input. Allowed entry characters: see "Engraving
system variables", page 286
Q513 Character height? (absolute): Height of the
characters to be engraved in mm. Input range 0 to
99999.9999
Q514 Character spacing factor?: The font used is a
proportional font. Each character has its own width,
which is engraved correspondingly by the TNC if you
program Q514 = 0. If Q514 is not equal to 0, the
TNC scales the space between the characters. Input
range 0 to 9.9999
Q515 Font?: Currently without function
Q516 Text on a line/on an arc(0/1)?:
Engrave the text in a straight line: Input = 0
Engrave the text on an arc: Input = 1
Engrave the text on an arc, circumferentially (not
necessarily legible from below): Input = 2
Q374 Angle of rotation?: Center angle if the text
is to be arranged on an arc. Engraving angle when
text is in a straight line. Input range -360.0000 to
+360.0000°
Q517 Radius of text on an arc? (absolute): Radius
of the arc in mm on which the TNC is to arrange the
text Input range 0 to 99999.9999
Q207 Feed rate for milling?: Traversing speed of
the tool in mm/min during milling. Input range 0 to
99999.999 alternatively FAUTO, FU, FZ
Q201 Depth? (incremental): Distance between
workpiece surface and engraving floor
Q206 Feed rate for plunging?: Traversing speed of
the tool in mm/min during plunging. Input range 0 to
99999.999 alternatively FAUTO, FU
Q200 Set-up clearance? (incremental): Distance
between tool tip and workpiece surface Input range
0 to 99999.9999; alternatively PREDEF
Q203 Workpiece surface coordinate? (absolute):
Coordinate of the workpiece surface. Input range
-99999.9999 to 99999.9999
