Programming  
CYCLE88 (RTP, RFP, SDIS, DP, DPR, DTB, SDIR) 
RTP  REAL  Retraction plane (absolute) 
RFP  REAL  Reference plane (absolute) 
SDIS  REAL  Safety clearance (enter without sign) 
DP  REAL  Final drilling depth (absolute) 
DPR  REAL  Final drilling depth relative to the reference plane (enter without sign) 
DTB  REAL  Dwell time at final drilling depth (chip breakage) 
SDIR  INT  Direction of rotation 
Values: 3 (for M3), 4 (for M4) 
The tool drills at the programmed spindle speed and feedrate to the entered final drilling depth. When drilling with stop, a 
spindle stop without orientation M5 and a programmed stop M0 are generated when the final drilling depth is reached. 
Pressing the following key traverses the outward movement at rapid traverse until the retraction plane is reached: 
 
Sequence 
Position reached prior to cycle start:
 
The drilling position is the position in the two axes of the selected plane. 
The cycle creates the following sequence of motions:
 
●  Approach of the reference plane brought forward by the safety clearance by using G0 
●  Traversing to final drilling depth with G1 and the feedrate programmed prior to the cycle call 
●  Dwell time at final drilling depth 
●  Spindle and program stop with M5 M0. After program stop, press the following key: 
 
●  Retraction to the retraction plane with G0
