Programming
It is an error if:
• The H number is not an integer, or
• The H number is negave, or
• The H number is not a valid tool number
It is OK to program using the same oset already in use. It is also OK to program without a tool
length oset if none is currently being used.
7.5.14 Engrave Sequential Serial Number – G47
To engrave a serial number, either alone or added to the end of any desired text, program: Z~ R~
X~ Y~ P~ Q~ D~
Word Denition
Z~ The depth of cut of the engraving.
R~ The retract height between character segments in the numbers.
X~
If present, species the starting ‘X’ position, or the left side of the serial number. If omitted, the
current X position is assumed.
Y~
If present, species the starting ‘Y’ position, or the bottom side of the serial number. If omitted, the
current Y position is assumed.
P~ If present, is the ‘X’ extent (width) in current units (inches or millimeters) of the engraved number.
Q~ If present, is the ‘Y’ extent (height) in current units (inches or millimeters) of the engraved number.
D~
If present, is the requested number of decimals of the engraved number. If the requested D value
exceeds the number of decimals in the serial number, the serial number will show leading zeros. If
the requested D value is less than the number of decimals in the serial number, only the digits of
the serial number will show. For example: a serial number of 10 where D = 4 engraves as 0010; a
serial number of 9056 where D = 3 engraves as 9056.
It is an error if:
• Cuer Compensaon is on
• The Z number is unspecied
• The R number is unspecied
• The Z number is greater than the R number
• The P number is too small (determined by the font used)
• The Q number is too small (determined by the font used)
