Basic instructions with regard to the assignment of standard cycle parameters
Each defining parameter of a cycle has a certain data type. The parameter being used must be specified when the cycle is
called. In this parameter list, the following parameters can be transferred:
● R parameters (only numerical values)
● Constants
If R parameters are used in the parameter list, values must first be assigned to them in the program to be called. Proceed
through either of the following methods to call the cycles:
● using an incomplete parameter list
● omitting parameters
If you want to exclude the last transfer parameters that have to be written in a call, you can prematurely terminate the
parameter list with ")". If any parameters are to be omitted within the list, a comma "..., ,..." must be written as a placeholder.
No plausibility checks are made for parameter values with a limited range of values unless an error response has been
specifically described for a cycle.
If when calling the cycle the parameter list contains more entries than parameters are defined in the cycle, the general NC
alarm 12340 "Too many parameters" is displayed and the cycle is not executed.
Note
Axis
-specific and channel-specific machine data of the spindle must be configured.
Cycle call
The individual methods for writing a cycle are shown in the programming examples provided for the individual cycles.
S i mulation of c ycles
Programs with cycle calls can be tested first in simulation.
During simulation, the traversing movements of the cycle are visualized on the screen.
12.3
Graphical cycle programming in the program editor
The program editor in the control system provides cycle programming. You can enter machining parameters in the cycle and
call the cycle in the program.
Function
The cycle support consists of three components:
● Cycle selection
● Input screens for parameter assignment
● Help display per cycle
Operating the cycle support
To add a cycle call to the program, proceed as described below:
1.
Select the desired operating area.
2.
Select a cycle type with the corresponding horizontal softkey to open the lower
-level verti
cal
softkey bar until the desired input screen form with the help display appears on the screen.
