Programming
7.5.19 Set Blended Path Control Mode – G64
To aempt to maintain the dened feed velocity, program: G64 P~ Q~
Word Denition
P~
If present, species the maximum acceptable tool path deviation to round corners to maintain speed.
If P is omitted then the speed is maintained however far from the programmed path the tool cuts.
Q~
If present, species the maximum deviation from collinearity that will collapse a series of linear G01
moves at the same feed rate into a single linear move.
NOTE: It is OK to program for the mode that is already acve.
7.6 Canned Cycles
The canned cycles described in the table below are implemented in PathPilot.
Canned Cycle Description
G80 Cancel active canned cycle
G81 Simple drilling cycle
G82 Simple drilling with dwell cycle
G83 Peck drilling cycle
G73 High speed peck drill cycle
G85 Boring cycle – feed rate out
G86 Boring cycle – stop, rapid out
G88 Boring cycle – stop, manual out
G89 Boring cycle – dwell, feed rate out
All canned cycles are performed with respect to the acve plane. The descripons in this secon assume
the XY-plane has been selected. The behavior is always analogous if the YZ or XZ-plane is selected.
Word Denition
X~
X-axis coordinate
Y~ Y-axis coordinate
Z~ Z-axis coordinate
A~ A-axis coordinate
R~
Retract position along the axis perpendicular to the currently selected plane (Z-axis for XY-
plane, X-axis for YZ-plane, Y-axis for XZ-plane)
L~
L number is optional and represents the number of repeats
All canned cycles use X, Y, Z, and R words. The R word sets the retract posion; this is along the axis
perpendicular to the currently selected plane (Z-axis for XY-plane, X-axis for YZ-plane, Y-axis for XZ-
plane). Some canned cycles use addional arguments.
