B-63330EN/03 3.INPUTTING AND OUTPUTTING PARAMETERS USING EXTERNAL INPUT/OUTPUT DEVICES

- Inch/metric switching

The data specified for parameters dependent on inch/metric switching,
such as length and feedrate parameters, is determined to be in either
inch or metric mode depending on the mode assumed at input time for
input from the MDI and depending on whether the keyword preceding
the data is I or M for input from an external input/output device.
These I and M keywords are added to data as appropriate when that
data is output from an external input/output device.
If the mode assumed at input time or the keyword does not match the
mode assumed when the data is to be used, for example, the data input
in inch mode is to be used in metric mode, the CNC automatically
converts the data before use, eliminating the need to change the data
according to the mode change. In addition, in the display of parameter
data, data is converted according to the mode assumed at display time,
before the data is displayed. When the data is to be output from the
external input/output device, it is converted back to the original data
according to the keyword or mode.

B-63330EN/03 4.DESCRIPTION OF PARAMETERS

#1 PRO Specifies whether to enable override for rapid traverse, reference

position return, and positioning in the machine coordinate system in
axis control by PMC.
0: Disables override.
1: Enables override.

#2 POV Specifies the override signals that can be used for rapid traverse,

reference position return, and positioning in the machine coordinate
system in axis control by PMC.
0: ROV1 and ROV2, or RV0B to RV6B (signals for CNC axes)
1: ROV1E and ROV2E (signals for PMC axes only)

#7 NDI Specifies the behavior of PMC-based axis control when diameter

programming is used for the PMC controlled axis, as follows:
0: T he actual amount of travel becomes twice the specified value,
but the feedrate remains as specified.
1: The actual amount of travel remains as is, but the feedrate

becomes half the specified value.

The parameter affects the amount of travel specified in the Rapid
traverse (00h) , Cutting feed (feed per minute) (01h) , Cutting feed
(sec/block specification) (02h) , Feed per revolution (12h) , Skip
(13h) , and External pulse synchronization (1Bh) commands.

It also affects the feedrate specified in the Cutting feed (feed per
minute ) (01h) , Feed per revolution (12h) , and Skip (13h)
commands. If parameter RPD (bit 2 of parameter No. 1409) = 1, the
feedrate specified in the Rapid traverse (00h) , Machine coordinate
system selection (06h) , and 1st. to 4th. reference position return (17h
to 1Ah) commands are also affected by this parameter, because the
rapid traverse rate is specified using the PMC signal. If parameter
RPD (bit 2 of parameter No. 1409) = 0, the actual feedrate is not
affected by this parameter, because it is set to the rapid traverse rate
specified in the corresponding parameter.
For the Cutting feed (sec/block specification) (02h) command, the
travel time remains unchanged from the value specified in command;
it is not affected by this parameter.
For the Machine coordinate system selection (06h) command, the
target position is not affected by this parameter. Instead, it is specified
in diameter, if bit 3 of parameter No. 1006 (specification by diameter)
= 1.

4.DESCRIPTION OF PARAMETERS B-63330EN/03

CAUTION

1 This parameter is valid only when parameter DIA

(bit 3 of parameter No. 1006) = 1.

2 If a programmable diameter/radius switching is

used, that is, parameter PDC (bit 5 of parameter
No. 1001) = 1, parameter PDA (bit 3 of parameter
No. 1009) usually specifies whether diameter or
radius is to be used. For the PMC axis, however,
parameter NDI and parameter DIA (bit 3 of
parameter No. 1006) are used to determine the
amount of travel and the feedrate. On the other
hand, whether the position display is displayed as
a diameter or radius is determined by parameter
PDA (bit 3 of parameter No. 1009) .

This bit is effective only when DIA (bit 3 of
parameter No. 1006) is set to 1.

of fine HPCC

[Input type] Parameter input

[Data type] Real

[Unit of data] mm/min, inch/min, degree/min (machine unit)

[Minimum unit of data] Depend on the increment system of the reference axis

[Valid data range] Refer to the standard parameter setting table (C)

(When the increment system is IS-B, 0.0 - +240000.0)

The deceleration function based on the acceleration of fine HPCC

automatically calculates the optimum feedrate according to the

geometry.

Depending on the geometry, the calculated feedrate may become very

low.

If this occurs, to prevent the feedrate from becoming too low,

deceleration to a feedrate below that specified for this parameter can

be suppressed.

If, however, the override by the deceleration function based on the

cutting load is enabled, the feedrate may become lower than the lower

feedrate limit.

The lower feedrate limit in deceleration based on the acceleration

during circular interpolation in a mode other than fine HPCC mode

can be specified for parameter No. 1491.

NOTE

During involute interpolation, the lower feedrate limit
for the "acceleration clamp in the vicinity of the basic
circle" of involute interpolation automatic feedrate
control is applied.

[Minimum unit of data] Depend on the increment system of the reference axis

[Valid data range] Refer to the standard parameter setting table (C)

(When the increment system is IS-B, 0.0 - +240000.0)

The deceleration function based on the acceleration during circular

interpolation automatically calculates the optimum feedrate so that the

acceleration resulting from changes in the travel direction during

circular interpolation does not exceed the allowable acceleration

specified for parameter No. 1665.

If the arc radius is very small, the calculated feedrate may become

very low.

If this occurs, to prevent the feedrate from becoming too low,

deceleration to a feedrate lower than that specified for this parameter

can be suppressed.

#4 LAA

Bit related to the enabling and disabling of

acceleration/deceleration before look-ahead interpolation

0: Whether acceleration/deceleration before look-ahead

interpolation is enabled or disabled depends on the
G05.1/G05 command and the state of MBF, bit 6 of
parameter No. 2401.

1: It is assumed that G05.1Q1 is always issued.

When this parameter bit is set to 1, acceleration/deceleration

before look-ahead interpolation is always specified regardless of

the G05.1/G05 command.

4.DESCRIPTION OF PARAMETERS B-63330EN/03

NOTE

1 If this parameter bit is set to 1, MBF, bit 6 of

parameter No. 2401 must also be set to 1.

2 Under those conditions where

acceleration/deceleration before look-ahead
interpolation is not performed, such as threading,
tapping mode, and a canned cycle,
acceleration/deceleration before look-ahead
interpolation is automatically disabled.

3 When using an electronic gearbox, set this

parameter bit to 0.

4 When fine HPCC is used, and a multi-buffer off

command (G05P1) is issued, deceleration with
acceleration for linear interpolation is disabled.

#5 ATDF If processing-specific parameters are selected with the G05.1 Q1

Rx: or G10 L80 Rx: command, execution parameters are

changed so that machining can be performed with the settings

for each mode. When the fine HPCC mode is turned off after

the end of machining,

0: The execution parameters remain changed.

1: The execut ion parameters are restored to the values prior to

the change (defaults).

Conditions under which the parameters are restored

- G05.1 Q0: is issued.

- G05.1 Q1: is issued.

- The CNC is reset.

If this parameter bit is set to 1, the machining mode cannot be

changed by operating on MDI keys on the high-speed high

precision machining setup screen.

#6 FNW Specifies whether the method of determining the feedrate based on

the feedrate difference in acceleration/deceleration before look-ahead

interpolation and the method of determining the feedrate based on the

acceleration of fine HPCC are the same as those of the 15B.

0: Same as those of the 15B. Thus, the highest feedrate that does

not exceed the allowable feedrate difference or allowable
acceleration for each axis is assumed.

1: In addition to the condition that the feedrate must not exceed the

allowable feedrate difference and allowable acceleration, the
condition that the deceleration feedrate must be constant if the
geometry is the same must be satisfied in determining the

feedrate.
When this parameter is set to 1, the feedrate determined with the
feedrate difference or acceleration may be lower by up to 30% than
that determined when it is set to 0.
