The table leader acts as means of transmitting information.

1. Program structure (Master file)
An NC program as pr ocessed b y the SIE MENS SINU MERIK 840D
is laid out like a characteristic file. DIN V4001 is the guideline
which describes the content and syntactic structure of
characteristic files.
This NC program is tran sferred from the programming location to
the control system in the form of a master file with t he suffix .Act.
There the master file is disassembled by the control system and
the data is processed appropriately. This master file must be
generated by the programming system according to set rules.
The master file can be divided into three sections:

basis of the subsequent NC code:
SET_METRIC: metric programming
SET_INCH: programming in inches.
However, unit identifica tion is not based on the units of the
table parameters in the table lead. The table parameters
describe themselve s in a separate characteri stic description
block.
Table leader
NC code
The following information is transmitted:
• Setup schedule informa tio n.
• Sheet handling tables.
• Master data from the laser technology tables (optional).
• Laser technology tables call-up instructions.
The control syst em extracts the informat ion contained in the tabl e
leader and depicts this data in t he form of table s and interfaces at
the user interface.
When cycles within the NC program are being executed, the
control system accesses the stored data in the tables and
interfaces and can thus execute the ongoing cycle with these
parameters.

2. Characteristic file
Data statements in a bl ock are separated by a comma, te xts are

additionally bracket ed with inverted commas. The blocks within a
table block follow a set order:
This statement specif ies the number of characteristics laid out
in the form of characteristic description blocks.
Example: ZA, MM, 3
Characteristic description blocks.
2.
Every characteristic description block describes a table
parameter. The sequence of these blocks establishes the
respective position of the characteristics in the characteristic
data block.
Example:
AT, 1, 10, 1, 1, , ’table identifier’, , , T
AT, 1, 20, 1, 1, , ’sheet dimension X’, , , Z
AT, 1, 30, 1, 1, , ’sheet dimension Y’, , , Z
In a characteristic descr iptio n bloc k, all param eters are l isted in

sequence, which are required for the description of a
characteristic. A set order mus t be adher ed to:
• The line type-identifier describes the type of data in the
relevant line. It is there solely to aid understanding and is
not utilized by the system. The ident ifier MM, AT for attribute characteristics is always disp layed in the table leader
of the NC programs.
• Version (number): This entry identifies the version in
which the relevant characteristic description block was
modified. This statement must agree with the corresponding version of the character istic file (always 1 in th e table
leader of NC programs).
• Identification number (number): This entry must be une-
quivocal for every character istic description block within a
table block. The identificat ion numbers do not necessarily
have to be consecuti ve or continuous. If various versions
of the characteristi c fi le are publ i shed in th e c ourse of time,
the identification numbers of deleted characteristic description blocks must not be reused. However, modified
characteristic description blocks must retain the same
identification number which they have had in the past.
• Responsible location (number): This statem ent indicates
by whom the characteristic description block has been
created or most recently edited.

2 Data are given as co nstants prior to the dat a blocks or

values.
3 Characteristic with value range.
4 Reference to another standard.
Status 1 always appears at this po sition in th e table leader
of NC programs. The data is always itemized in the
characteristic data blocks (see Point 4).
• Characteristic identification: is not utilized.
• Characteristic designation (Text): this entry contains the
plain text designation of the characteristic.
• Dimension characteristics: is not utilized.
• Dimension unit: the unit of measure indicate s the unit in
which the table parameter is shown in the following
characteristic data block.
• Data type (Name): the data type indicates whether the
described chara cteristic i s a number (N) or a text (T) . Both
numbers and texts are permitted.
This specifies the number of characteristic data blocks, their
various values or texts which are assigned to the individual
characteristic description blocks.
Example: ZA, DA, 1
A characteristic data block always refers to a block of
characteristic description blocks. The parameters of a
characteristic data block are assigned in sequence to the
previously listed characteristic description blocks. Thus, the
number of data in a characteristic data block always
corresponds to the number of characteristic description blocks.
Example: DA, ’SHL-1’, 1697.500, 500
First the form of the data is described (Point 2)
(characteristicdescriptionblocks), and then the data are
listed (Point 4) (characteristicdatablocks).
Several table bl ocks can be listed one u nder the oth er. The end of
a characteristic file must b e marked with its own unequivo cal end
code:

code is composed of:
• Subroutines
• The main program.

Individual command s are ca ll ed wor d s.
3.1 Linguistic elements of the
programming language
Programs consi st - as does th e language we speak - of sentences
(i.e. blocks), which in turn consist of words.
A word of the "NC language" consists of an address character and
a numeric character or of a numeric sequence, which represents
an arithmetical value.
contain information for the movement of the machine (path
conditions and path information) as well as help and additional
functions. A block can contain a maximum of 242 character s and
ends with the character "LF" (= line feed).
The character "LF" does not need to be written; it is automatically produced by the line feed.
The programming table determines the sequence in which the
individual words m ust be or dere d. Spa ces can be ent ered betw een
the words in order to create an easy to read block structure.
Program word
N200 G01 X320.5 Y32 F12000 LF
Block number Words End of block
A word consists of an address letter and a sequence of digits. Wit h
the address letters (e.g. X, Y, G, M etc.) the meaning of the
information or the me mory location is label ed. The digit sequence
indicates the memory content.
The digit sequence can contain decimal points and operational
signs (the latter are always pla ced between the addr ess letter and
the digit sequence). Pos itive operational signs, leading zeros and
non-significant zeros after the decimal point do not need to be
programmed.
Example:
X157.5 instead of X+0157.50
X65 instead of X+65.00
X-.57 instead of X-0.57
Only information that changes needs to be programmed.

same meaning as the words.
Designators must be unequivocal: The same designator must
never be used for different objects. Designators can stand for:
• Variable

• DIN addresses with several letters.
Designators consist of a maximu m of 32 characters. The following
may be used as characters:
• Letters
• Underline characters.
• Digits
The first two characters must be letters or underline characters.

1. G-functions / Path conditions
1.1
Modal-effective motion commands
Definition
G-functions determine the interpolation type, the dimension input
type, the reference point for dimension input, and data corrections.
Together with the coordinate values, they form the geometrical part
of the program.
Programming note
• G-functions must be written before the path information.
• A maximum of one G-function from one function group may be
written per block.
• Related functions are combined into a function group. The
functions within a group cancel themselves mutually. Hence
only one function per group is ever active.
• The active function or the active turn-on condition is always the
one that was programmed last of the group.
• When programming G functions, the initial zero can be omitted,
e.g. G3 instead of G03.

Program-end functions
Definition
Programming note
M-functions trigger the routines stored in the control system, with
which the machine components such as valves, cylinders or
electrical switching units are addressed and activated.
For the SINUMERIK 840D, machining cycles have been developed
which include the operations of "classic" M-functions. Only the
standardized stop and program-end functions remain as Mfunctions.
• M-functions need to be written after the path information.
• A maximum of 5 M-functions per NC block can be programmed.
• Related functions are combined into a function group. The
functions within a group cancel themselves mutually. Hence
only one function per group is ever active.
• Only one command from a function group may be programmed
per NC block. If several M commands appear in a group in the
NC block, the most recently programmed is activated.
• The active function or the active turn-on condition is always the
most recently programmed of the group.

1. Linear interpolation
1.1 G00
Definition
The programmed position is interpolated on a straight line.
With G00, the machine moves with maximum speed (rapid
traverse) along the shortest path from the current starting point to
the programmed target position. All programmed axes reach the
final position simultaneously.
Rapid traverse speed is fixed separately for each axis:
TC L 2530, TC L3030, TC L4030, TC L 6030:
• 60 m/min in X direction.
• 60 m/min in Y direction.
• 85 m/min simultaneously.
TC L 3050:
• 200 m/min in X direction.
• 200 m/min in Y direction.
• approx. 300 m/min simultaneous.
TC HSL 2502 C, TC HSL 4002 C:
• 215 m/min in X-Richtung.
• 215 m/min in Y-Richtung.
• > 300 m/min simultan.
Programming G00
• Self-holding effect.
• Can be programmed with or without path information.
• Suppresses a programmed speed (F-word).
• Is deleted by G01, G02 and G03.
Application
Rapid traverse movement is applied in order to:
• Approach start position.
• Position quickly.
This function is not suitable for workpiece machining!
P338en3.doc G-functions/Path conditions 3-3
1.2 G01
Definition
The programmed position is interpolated on a straight line.
With G01, the machine moves with a maximum speed programmed
in F-word and takes the shortest route from the current starting
point to the programmed target position. All programmed axes
reach the final position simultaneously.
Programming G01
• Is the turn-on condition.
• Self-holding effect.
• Can be programmed with or without path information.
• At the very latest, the speed (F-word) must be programmed by

2.3 I and J, Interpolation parameters
Definition
Programming I and J
When programming the circle with G02 or G03, the position of the
center of the circle must be programmed in addition to its end point
using the interpolation parameters I and J. Since it is not
permissible to program two X or Y dimensions in one block, the
circle center distances are programmed to the starting point as
I (X direction) and J (Y direction).
I Circle center distance in X direction
J Circle center distance in Y direction
• Are entered incrementally as standard practice, based on the
circle starting point.
• Must be programmed parallel to the axes and with the correct
operational signs.
• Can be programmed with help from the AC function and be
completely specific to the workpiece zero point.
• If I=0 or J=0, this value does not have to be written.
• With full circle programming, it is not necessary to specify the
end point.
Radius programming presents a further possibility for circle
programming with G02 or G03.
2.4 CR, Radius programming
Definition
Programming CR
When programming the circle with G02 or G03, the circle radius CR
must also be programmed next to the circle end point in or der to
define the circle movement more closely.
• The assignment of values is carried out using a "="-sign:
• By entering the operational sign "+/-", you can program whether
• Complete circles cannot be programmed using the circle radius
When programming the circle with G02 or G03, it can also
present circle center programming on the basis of the
interpolation parameters I and J.
CR=15, not CR15!
the travel angle should be larger or smaller than 180°.
A positive operational sign can be dispensed with, indicating:
CR=+..angle less than or equal to 180°.
CR=-.. angle greater than 180°.
CR, but only by determination of the circle middle point using
the interpolation parameters I and J.

The X-word defines the position of both cutting heads in X-direction
in connection with the laser cutting head table (TC_LASER_HEAD).
It is important which one of the two cutting heads is active, or
whether both cutting heads are active.
The laser cutting head table defines which cutting head is active or
not active (0 or 1 for the respective cutting head), and with what
distance both cutting heads traverse to one another.
• Has a self-holding effect, i.e. if no X-word is programmed in the
block, then there is no movement in X-direction.
• And with metric programming, it can be exactly programmed
between min. -99999.999 mm and max. +99999.999 mm to
within 0.001 mm.
• With programming in inches, it can be exactly programmed
between min. -999.9999 inches and max. +999.9999 inches.

Laser cycles contain sequences of machine commands, which
cover both the functionality and the technology of laser processing.
A laser cycle consists of individual cycle elements. An element may
include an NC command, a technology data call-up instruction or
PLC/laser data transmission sequences. Laser-processing cycles
are the result of the compilation of these elements. The sequence is
thus established according to the individual machine commands
executed and also the recall of technology data, which depend on
material type and sheet thickness.
Laser technology tables
All technology data for the processing of a material type and sheet
thickness are summarized in a table. A table is divided into various
processing types, e.g. "Cutting", "Piercing", "Marking", etc.
The technology data required for a particular machining situation is
called up selectively from the laser technology table by respective
parameter entries during the cycle call-up in the NC program.
Laser technology tables are superordinate tables.
The table parameters for the TC L 3050 V and TC L 4050
are not described here separately. The description is
displayed directly when selecting on the machine.

1.1 TC_LASER_ON
Definition
Programming
with the TC_LASER_ON cycle call-up in the NC-program, the
following machine commands are executed dependent upon the
entered cycle parameters.
• Activate the height regulation.
• Select piercing gas.
• Move Z-axis to piercing position.
• Switch on beam for piercing.
• Select cutting gas.
• Move Z-axis to cutting position.
• Switch on beam for cutting.
The TC_LASER_ON cycle is called up in the NC program with the
following cycle parameters:
TC_LASER_ON (Laser method, "Laser technology table",
Piercing type, Cutting type)
• Laser methods 1-8 can be used to switch on the laser beam for
conventional laser machining. Laser methods 9-12 are intended
for processing with laser power control.
• If pure cutting or piercing cycles are called up, the value "0"
must be entered for the cycle parameters "Piercing type" or
"Cutting type".
• Is deleted by TC_LASER_OFF.
Laser method
Cycle parameters: a fixed programmed "list" of cycle elements is
called up via the laser method. The sequence is established via this
"list" by which the individual commands should be executed. The
following laser-methods are available:

Cutting with "floating data exchange" can be programmed with laser
methods 5, 6, 11 and 12: if a further TC_LASER_ON call-up with
one of the methods 5, 6, 11 or 12 is programmed when the beam is
already activated, it is possible to:
• switch between the various cutting data within a laser
technology table (e.g. contour change)
• or switch between various laser technology tables.
• No pits due to reduction of the cutting speed during data
exchange.
• Faster processing due to "floating data exchange".

Processing with laser power
control
Laser technology table
When working with laser power control the laser beam remains on
during the entire processing process. Only the power changes.
Switching off in this case means reducing the laser power to
1 percent. It is possible to change to a conventional processing
type.
It is not yet possible at this time to machine with laser power
control without the distance control system. In this case,
cutting ensues without laser power control.
Laser methods 11 or 12 are always used for special machining
types.
Cycle parameters: the appropriate laser technology table is
selected by entering the table designation.
The table number must always be entered with inverted commas.
