Settings for NC Codes
This section groups together the settings involving
the interpretation and execution of NC codes that
you can manipulate on the machine. For others, use
NC programs.
“NC Code Reference Manual"
Note: In order to make the setting related to NC code,
select [NC Code] or [Selected automatically (RML-1/
NC Code)] for command set.
P. 46, "Selecting the Command Set"
Value interpretation method
This selects the method of interpretation for numeri-
cal values containing a decimal point and the range
for calculator- method interpretation.
In VPanel, click [Setup] button, and click [NC Code
setting], and display the [NC Code] tab, then make
the settings.
Workpiece origin offset (G54 through G59)
This setting aects the location of the workpiece coor-
dinate origin. Select the objective Coordinate System
from [Set Origin Point] on the VPanel and set the ref-
erence point. Note that making the setting in an NC
program by using G10 or G92 is also possible.
EXOFS
Follow the setting method described below.
1. Set the display of the coordinate system on the VPanel to
[Machine Coordinate System].
2. Specify the coordinate values of X, Y, and Z, respectively
from the dialog, [Move to user specied location]
3. Select [EXOFS] at the [Set Origin Point].
4. Select [Set "XYZ origin" here] in the VPanel and click the
[Apply].
Note that making the setting in an NC program by
using G10 is also possible.
Tool-diameter offset value
In VPanel, click [Setup] button, and click [NC Code
setting], and display the [Tool-diameter Oset] tab,
then make the settings. Note that making the setting
in an NC program by using G10 is also possible.
Tool-diameter offset type (G41 and G42)
This selects type A or type B. In VPanel, click [Setup]
button, and click [NC Code setting], and display the
[NC Code] tab, then make the settings.
Optional block skip (/) This setting enables or
disables optional block skip. In VPanel, click [Setup]
button, and click [NC Code setting], and display the
[NC Code] tab, then make the settings.
Overrides
Feed speed (F), Main axis rotation speed (S) can be set.
Make the settings in VPanel's main window.
Items Related to the Mechanical Specications
This section describes the NC codes that are depen-
dent on the machine's mechanical specications.
“NC Code Reference Manual"”
Dimension word
Of dimension words X, Y, Z, and A, only X, Y, and Z
are supported under the standard conguration. A is
supported when a rotary axis unit is installed.
Data setting (G10)
The parameter range for G10 is as follows.
Parameter: number
Function: Oset number
Acceptable range: 1 to 8
Eective range: 1 to 8
Parameter: radius
Function: Tool-diameter oset value
Acceptable range: Range 1
Eective range: 0 to 10 mm (0 to 0.3937 inch)
Tool-diameter offset (G41 and G42)
The parameter ranges for G41 and G42 are as fol-
lows.
Parameter: number
Function: Oset number
Acceptable range: 0 to 8
