2 Summarization of CNC Programming

2.1 Summarization of CNC Programming

Definition of Machining File

Composed of a series of instructions written in a programming language which is specially used for CNC device, a machining file will be translated into motion actions to control the machine tool by CNC device. The most commonly used storage mediums are punched tape and disk.

Creation of Machining File

As shown in Fig. 2-1 below, a machining file can be created by traditional manual programming or CAD/CAM application (Such as the popular MasterCAM application).
Fig. 2-1 Creation of a Machining File

2.2 Summarization of CNC Machine Tool

Machine Tool Coordinate Axes

To simplify programming and guarantee the generality of program, this manual has standardized the naming of coordinate axes and the direction of CNC machine tool. Linear feeding coordinate axes

are denoted by X, Y and Z, which are normally referred as basic coordinate axes. The correlation of X, Y and Z axes follows ―the Right Hand Rule‖, as shown in Fig. 2-2. The thumb points in the +X direction, the index finger points in the +Y direction, and the middle finger points in the +Z direction.
Fig. 2-2 Machine Tool Coordinate Axes
Circle feed coordinate axes swiveling around X, Y and Z are respectively denoted by A, B, and C. According to the Right Hand Screw Rule, the thumb points in +X, +Y and +Z direction, while the index and middle finger points in +A, +B, and +C direction of circle feed motion. The feed motion of CNC machine can be realized by spindle driving the tool or the worktable driving the workpiece. The positive directions of coordinate axes mentioned above are directions of tool feeding relative to the supposedly stationary workpiece. If the workpiece is kinetic, the coordinate axes are marked with ―’‖. According to relative motion, the positive direction of workpiece movement is opposite to that of tool movement, that is:
+X =-X’, +Y =-Y’, +Z =-Z’
+A =-A’, +B =-B’, +C =-C’
Likewise, their negative directions are contrary to each other.
The directions of machine coordinate axes depend on the type of machine tool and the layout of each component. For a milling machine:
Z: Z-axis coincides with the main spindle axis, and the direction of tool moving away from workpiece is the positive direction (+Z);
X: X-axis is perpendicular to Z-axis and parallel to the clamped surface of workpiece. For a single column vertical mill, if the user faces the spindle and looks in the column direction, right moving direction is the positive direction of X-axis (+X);
Y: Y-axis, X-axis and Z-axis together constitute a coordinate system abiding by right hand rule.

Machine Origin (MO) and Machine Reference Point (REFER) of Machine Coordinate System (MCS)
MCS is the intrinsic coordinate system of machine tool. Known as machine origin or machine zero point, or home position, the origin of MCS is confirmed and fixed after designing, manufacturing and tuning of machine. The CNC device doesn’t know where machine origin is when power on, and the mechanical stroke of each coordinate axis is limited by maximum and minimum limit switch. To correctly set MCS at machining, we normally set a machine REFER point (the initial point of measurement) within the stroke range of each coordinate axis. After starting the machine, it is necessary to back to REFER point manually or automatically so as to create the MCS. The REFER point can coincide with MO or not. If not, the distance from machine REFER point to MO can be set by parameter setting. After the machine returns to the REFER point, the machine origin, which is the reference point of all coordinate axes, is confirmed, so the MCS is established. The stroke of MCS is defined by the machine tool manufacturer, while the valid stroke of MCS is defined by software limit. The relationship between machine origin (OM), machine REFER point (Om), the mechanical stroke and valid stroke of MCS is as shown in Fig. 2-3.

4 Programming Instruction System

4.1 Spindle Function (S), Feed Function (F) &Tool Function (T)

Spindle Function S

Command Format: S_
Description:
S command is used to control the spindle speed. Its subsequent numerical value denotes the rotate speed of spindle in rpm.
S is a modal command, and S function is valid only when the spindle speed is adjustable. When one S command is specified, it will be valid until the next S command is specified.
Note: even though the spindle is off, the value of S remains.

Feed Speed (Feedrate) F

Command Format: F_
Description:
Command F indicates the synthetic feed speed of tool relative to the workpiece being machined. Its unit is mm/min.
With the help of feedrate override switch on the operation panel, F can be adjusted between feedrate percent 0% -120%.
F functions differently with different commands:
G00 command, specifying the rapid traverse speed, modal for the current machining procedure. G01~G03 command, specifying the feed speed, modal for the current machining procedure.

Tool Function (T Feature)

Command Format: T_
Description:
T is used for selecting a tool; the subsequent value denotes the tool no. selected, and the relationship between T code and a tool is stipulated by machine tool manufacturer.
When a machining center runs T code, tool magazine will rotate to select the required tool, and wait until command M06 comes into effect to finish automatic tool change.
T command calls in tool compensation value (including length and radius) from the tool

4.2 Miscellaneous Function M Code

Miscellaneous function is composed of address word M and its subsequent number of one to three digits. It is mainly used to control the running of machining file and on/off of machine miscellaneous functions.
M function has non-modal and modal forms:
Non-modal M function: it is effective only in the program block containing it. Modal M function: a group of M functions that can be mutually cancelled; an M function remains in
effect until another M function in the same group appears to cancel it.
Form 4-1 Miscellaneous Function M Code

4.3 Preparatory Function G Code

Preparatory function G code is composed of address word G and its subsequent 1-3 digits. It is used to specify machining operations, such as the moving track of tool relative to workpiece, machine coordinate system, coordinate plane, tool compensation, coordinate offset, subprogram call, dwell, and so on.
G function has two forms, which are non-modal and modal G function:
Non-modal G function: only effective in the specified program block, and cancelled at the end of
program block.

Commands Related to Coordinate System and Coordinates
G90 Absolute Programming and G91 Incremental Programming
Command Format: G90/G91
Description:
G90: it denotes absolute programming; the programming value on each programming coordinate axis is with respect to the origin of current WCS.
G91: it denotes incremental programming; the programming value on each programming coordinate axis is with respect to the previous position, and the value equals the distance that the tool moves in each axis.
G90, as the default, and G91 are modal functions and can be mutually cancelled. They cannot be used in the same program block. For example, G90 G91 G0 X10 is unallowable.
Programming Example:
As shown in Fig. 4-1 below, programming with G90, G91: the tool moves in sequence from origin to point 1, 2, and 3.
Fig. 4-1 G90/G91 Programming
Selecting the right mode can simplify the programming. If the drawing dimension is given based on a fixed datum, it is better to adopt absolute programming mode; if the drawing dimension is given on the basis of space distance between contour apexes, it is better to adopt incremental programming mode.
G92 Set WCS according to Tool Position
Command Format: G92 X_Y_Z_
Description:
X_Y_Z_: the directed distance between origin of WCS and the beginning point of tool, i.e. the workpiece coordinates of the beginning point of current tool
A program is compiled based on WCS and begins with the cutter beginning point; before

machining, the WCS should be learnt by the CNC system so as to link up the WCS with the MCS by setting the coordinates of cutter beginning point in the MCS.
G92 command can set the REFER point; it can also create a WCS by setting the relative position of tool beginning point (tool measurement point) to origin of WCS to be created. Once the WCS is established, the value of the command in absolute programming is the coordinate value in the WCS.
Fig. 4-2 Creation of Workpiece Coordinate System
Programming Example:
Programming with G92 command to create a WCS is as shown in Fig. 4-2.
The execution of the program block only creates a WCS without cutter movement. As a non-modal command, G92 is usually put in the first block of machining file to create a WCS and synchronously offset origins of other WCSs, which can be used to adjust the length of cutter holder.
G921 Specify Work Coordinate Value of Current Point
Command Format: G921 X_Y_Z_
Description:
X_Y_Z_: workpiece coordinates of the current point
G921 is used to set workpiece coordinates of current point in the current WCS; unlisted axes will not be modified; this setting has effect only on the current WCS.
G921 command can be used for measuring workpiece surface, center or boundary.
G922 Specify the Machine Coordinates of WCS Origin
Command Format: G922 X_Y_Z_P_
Description:
X_Y_Z_: offset values
P_: specifying offset type. -4: external offset; -1: current WCS (default); 0~5: corresponding to G54~G59
G922 sets the coordinate value of the specified offset, without changing unlisted axes’ offset.
G922 command can be used for measuring workpiece surface, center or boundary.

Fig. 4-3 Back to Reference Position
G992 Temporarily Set WCS according to Tool Position
Command Format: G992 X_Y_Z_ /I_J_K_
Description:
The function of this command is similar to G92 command. Their difference is: G92 command alters the WCS permanently and takes the same standard to the whole system, while G992 command alters the WCS temporarily and only influences the coordinate parsing of processing instruction, which will be restored automatically at the end of machining.
The command can be used for implementing array function. The steps are as shown below.
Method one:
G992 X_Y_Z_
1. Delete M30 command in the processing file.
2. Adding the following contents at the beginning of the processing file:

Both the above two programs can realize the related array machining. The first 4 parameters can be adjusted and customized.
Note: G992 X_Y_Z_ sets the current point as a specified point in the new coordinate system. G992 I_J_K_ translates the original coordinate system a specified distance to form into a new
coordinate system. Comparatively speaking, G992 I_J_K_ is more efficient because it avoids the redundant rapid traverse instruction produced by origin offset, while G992 X_Y_Z_ sets an origin after backing to the original origin. During array machining, G92 command should be deleted manually because it is not supported by the system.

G51 is scaling on, while G50 is scaling off (Default: G50).
The range of scaling: 0.000001-99.999999
For example:
I0.666666 denotes that X is scaled down to 0.666666 times of the original dimension, while J3 denotes that Y is scaled up to 3 times of the original dimension.
When using the scaling command, pay attention to the followings:
Don’t set the scale factor as 0, or else an alarm will appear.  Scaling function has no effect on compensation value. When executing cutter radius compensation C, the scaling instruction (G51) can’t be specified. A canned cycle cannot be executed together with the scaling of Z-axis. If so, an alarm will appear. These G codes cannot be used in the execution process of scaling function: G28, G29, G53, and
G92, or else the outcome may contain an error.
If there is G51 in the program without G50, the scaling function will be automatically closed at the
end of the program.

R_: rotation angle in degree. Negative value is clockwise while positive value counterclockwise.
The instruction can be used for rotary contour machining by making the selected machining contour rotates degrees specified by R around the center in the specified plane. G68 is rotation on, while G69 rotation off.
Meaning of R: put a watch on the current plane, and let the watch surface towards the positive direction of the third axis; positive means counterclockwise rotation, while negative clockwise rotation.
In the process of rotation, coordinate of the third axis perpendicular to the current plane is constant. Respectively, swiveling in XY plane, the coordinate of Z-axis keeps still; swiveling in YZ plane, the coordinate of X-axis keeps still; and swiveling in ZX plane, the coordinate of Y-axis keeps still.
For example:
G17G90 X0Y0Z0
G65P9999L1
G68 X0Y0R-90 ’rotating 90 degrees clockwise around the center of (0, 0)
G65P9999L1
G69 ’rotation off

The instruction can be nested:
G68 X_Y_Z_R_ ’………A
…
G68 X_Y_Z_R_ ’………B
…
G68 X_Y_Z_R_ ’………C
…
G69 ’………C’
G69 ’………B’
G69 ’………A’
Rotation that appears earlier will influence the following rotation instruction. The subsequent rotation center is not the one in the machining file, but the position after transformation due to the previous rotation.
The function of G69 is to cancel the previous rotation command. In the above-mentioned program, line C’ cancels the G68 of line C, line B’ the G68 of line B, and line A’ the G68 of line A. If G69 not used, all rotation commands will be automatically cancelled at the end of current machining.

G50.1/G51.1 Mirror Image Function
Command Format:
G51.1 X_Y_Z_
上海维宏电子科技股份有限公司
Weihong Electronic Technology Co., Ltd.
G50.1 X_Y_Z_
Description:
X_Y_Z_: For G51.1, specifying mirror image center; for G50.1, specifying the invalid axes of mirror image function.
The instruction indicates machining the mirror image of machining contour. G51.1 denotes mirror image on and G50.1 off.
For G51.1, the center of mirror image can be a line, or a point. For example, G51.1 X10 specifies the mirror image of the contour relative to the line X=10, while G51.1 X10 Y10 Z10 specifies the mirror image of the contour relative to the point (10, 10, 10).
For G50.1, X_Y_Z_ is used to specify the invalid axes of mirror image function. For example, G50.1 X0 closes the mirror image function of X-axis, and G50.1 Y0 Z0 closes the mirror image functions of Y-axis and Z-axis. If X, Y and Z axes are all specified or no one is specified, it denotes the mirror image functions of all the axes are closed.

Feed Control Commands

G00 Rapid Positioning
Command Format: G0 X_Y_Z_
Description:
G00: rapidly positioning the tool, but not causing any machining to the workpiece. It can simultaneously perform rapid movement in several axes to produce a linear track. In the process of instruction analysis, if there is motion in Z-axis, the motion can be resolved into Z-axis motion and
18 Specialized, Concentrated, Focused
Page 22
上海维宏电子科技股份有限公司 Weihong Electronic Technology Co., Ltd.
plane motion to ensure safe movement. For Z-axis upward motion, Z axis motion is before plane motion, otherwise, plane motion first.
The machine data specifies the maximum rapid moving speed of each coordinate axis; a coordinate axis will run at this speed in rapid traverse. If rapid movement simultaneously performs on two axes, the speed will be the maximum possible speed of two axes.
The rapid moving speed in G00 command for each axis is set by the machine parameter ―rapid feed speed‖, or specified by F_, which is modal in a job program.
G00 is available until replaced by other commands in the group of G function (G01, G02, G03…).
Programming Example:
N10 G90 G00 X30 Y30 Z40
G01 Linear Interpolation
Command Format: G1 X_Y_Z_
Description:
G01 provides linear motion from point-to-point at appointed speed, i.e. the tool moves along a line from the beginning point to the target point; all coordinate axes can move simultaneously. G01 is available until replaced by other command in the group of G function (G00, G02, G03…).
Programming Example:
N05 G00 G90 X40 Y48 Z2 S500 M03
’tool rapidly moves to X40, Y48, Z2, and the spindle rotates CW at 500 rpm
N10 G01 Z-12 F100 ’tool goes to Z-12, with feed rate as 100 mm/min
N15 X20 Y18 Z-10 ’tool moves to P2 along a line
N20 G00 Z100 ’rapid movement
N25 X-20 Y80
N30 M02 ’end of the program
G02, G03 Circular Interpolation
Command Format: G02/G03 X_Y_Z_R_ (I_J_K_) F_
Description:
The commands are used to move a tool along a circular arc to the specified position at appointed feed speed. G02 specifies clockwise interpolation, while G03 counterclockwise interpolation.
In a program block, a circular arc path can pass across over two quadrants, or be programmed into a complete circle.
G02 and G03 are available until replaced by other commands in the group of G function (G00, G01 …).
Circular arc programming can be radius programming or centre programming. The function word of radius is R. There are two types of arcs under the same start point, end point, radius and rotary
Specialized, Concentrated, Focused 19
Page 23

direction. When R is negative, a circular arc is larger than a semicircle (i.e. a major arc); when positive, a circular arc is smaller than or equal to a semicircle (i.e. a semicircle or a minor arc). When the value of R is smaller than half of the distance between start point and end point of arc, a half circle (or a 180-degree arc) will be formed, with half of the distance between the start point and end point as the radius. Circle center is specified by the function words I, J, K in center programming. When I, J, K incremental mode is true, the coordinates of circle center is relative to the start point of the circular arc, otherwise, relative to the coordinates of workpiece origin. (If the coordinates of circle center is marked on a drawing, begin programming directly without calculation). X-Y plane is the default plane in circular programming, or you can specify a circular interpolation plane via G17, G18 or G19.
Helical interpolation is available by specifying another axis in a linear command at the same time to move synchronously with circular interpolation. K can be used to specify the pitch in helical interpolation so as to realize multi-circle helical line.
Radius programming can not be used for a whole circle programming, so a whole circle must be divided into two parts.
Note: When R>0, the radius angle is smaller than 1800; When R<0, the radius angle is larger than 1800.

Clockwise and counterclockwise circular interpolation, as shown in Fig. 4-10.

G04 Dwell
Command Format: G04 P_
Description:
P_: the dwell time in ms
G04 can be used in the following situations:
1. When cutting a corner, the dwell command can be used to guarantee a sharp corner.
2. In machining a not through hole, when the cutter reaches the appointed depth, G04 can be used to stop tool feed. After the spindle rotates more than one circle, execute tool retract to get a smooth hole bottom.
3. After boring a hole, the spindle should be stopped and dwell for 1~3s until totally stopped before tool retract in order to avoid thread scratches and ensure the smoothness of workpiece.
4. In transverse turning, G04 can be used before tool retract to make sure the spindle rotates at least one circle.
5. When chamfering or centering on a lathe, the dwell command, spindle on and tool change, etc. can be used to make sure the smoothness of chamfer surface and conical surface of center hole.
The dwell command comes into effect after the motion of last program block ends (the speed is
0). G04 dwells for the specified time, only effective in the program block containing it.
Inserting G04 between two program blocks can interrupt machining for the specified time, such
as in free cutting, and the time is determined by P function word, in ms.
Programming Example:
G04 P1000 ’dwell for 1000ms

Tool Commands

G40, G41, G42 Cutter Radius Compensation
Command Format:
G41 D_ G42 D_ G40
Description:
G40: cutter radius compensation cancel G41: left cutter compensation (the cutter offsets radius distance on the left side of cutter moving
direction)
G42: right cutter compensation (the cutter offsets radius distance on the right side of cutter
moving direction)
D_: parameter of G41/G42, i.e. tool compensation no. (D00~D07), denotes the radius
compensation value corresponding to the tool compensation list
The switch among cutter radius compensation planes must be executed when compensation is
off.
The establishment and cancel of cutter radius compensation can only use G00 or G01 command
instead of G02 or G03.
When using cutter radius compensation, the radius value must be measured accurately and then saved into the memory as the cutter path offset (cutter radius value). D code is used in programming to make cutter offset no. correspond to cutter radius value.
When G41 (G42) is used, the cutter will move a radius distance to the offset position. After the execution of G41 (G42), the tool is immediately located to the perpendicular position of start position of program block, and the value of movement depends on the offset.

Canned Cycle Function

The canned cycles of CNC mills are mainly used for machining holes, including drilling, boring and tapping. With one program block, you can accomplish one or a full set of hole machining operation. When continuing hole machining, if there is no need to change hole machining operations, all the modal data in the program needn’t to be written, which can greatly simplify the program.
Description of each command is shown in the following table.

Canned Cycle Operations

Generally speaking, canned cycle of hole machining is comprised of the following six operations, see Fig. 4-17.
Operation 1: positioning of X axis and Y axis---the cutter is rapidly located to the position of hole machining.
Operation 2: rapid traverse to point R---the cutter rapidly feeds from initial point to point R.
Operation 3: hole machining----executing hole machining at the mode of cutting feed.
Operation 4: operations at bottom of hole----including dwell, exact stop of spindle, cutter displacement, and so on.
Operation 5: return to point R----for continuing hole machining and safely moving the cutter.
Operation 6: return to initial point at rapid traverse rate----generally, initial point is selected after hole machining completed.
Initial Plane
Initial plane is a plane specified for a safe plunge. The distance between initial plane and workpiece surface can be set within the safe limit.

Point R Plane
Point R plane is also named R REFER plane; it is a plane where the cutter moves at a speed from rapid traverse rate (G00) to cutting workpiece speed (GXX). The distance between workpiece surface and point R, generally within 2~5mm, mainly varies with the dimension of workpiece surface.
Hole Bottom Plane
When machining a blind hole, hole bottom plane is Z-axis height at the bottom of hole. When machining a through hole, the cutter usually goes beyond the hole bottom a certain distance to make sure all holes are machined to the specified depth. When drilling a hole, the impact of drill on hole depth should also be taken into consideration.
Hole machining cycle is not related to plane selection command (G17, G18, and G19). Whichever plane is selected, hole machining is positioning in XY plane and drilling in Z-axis.

Canned Cycle Codes

Data Form
Data of Address R and Address Z in canned cycle commands are specified in incremental mode (G91); R indicates the distance from initial point to point R, and Z indicates the distance from point R to point Z in the hole bottom plane (refer to Fig. 4-18).
Gxx Hole Machining Mode
The command format of hole machining is as shown below:
Gxx X_Y_Z_R_Q_P_F_K_;
X_Y_: position of the hole to be machined (absolute/incremental coordinate)
28 Specialized, Concentrated, Focused
Fig. 4-18 Canned Cycle
Page 32
上海维宏电子科技股份有限公司 Weihong Electronic Technology Co., Ltd.
Z_: the position of point Z in the hole bottom plane (absolute programming); the distance from point R to point Z in the hole bottom plane (incremental programming)
R_: the position of point R (absolute programming); the distance from the initial point to point R (incremental programming)
Q_: the cutting depth each time (incremental and positive)
P_: the dwell time at bottom of hole, in ms, with no decimal point
F_: feed speed; even if the canned cycle is cancelled, this modal data is still effective in the subsequent machining.
K_: number of repeats, with default as K1. K (a non-modal command) is only effective in the block containing it. Under G91 mode, with setting this parameter, one block can implement the machining of several isometric holes distributed in one straight line. Under G90 mode, this parameter can specify the repeated machining times on the same position.
Command of hole machining mode, and Z, R, Q, and P, are all modal. They will remain in effect until hole machining mode is cancelled. Therefore, these commands can be specified at the beginning of the program, and then it is unnecessary to specify them again in the following consecutive machining; if the data of a certain hole is changed (such as: hole depth), you only need to modify this data.
G80 command is used to cancel hole machining mode; if any G code of Group 01 (G00/G01/G02/G03…) appears in the program block, the hole machining mode will also be automatically cancelled. In other words, as for canceling a canned cycle, G80 and G code of Group 01 function the same.

Followings are the detailed description of various hole-machining modes.

Special Canned Cycle

Description:
Unit of length: millimeter (mm)
Unit of angle: degree
1 meter=1000mm, one full circle= 360 degrees
Special canned cycle instructions (G34-37) must be used together with standard canned cycle instructions (G73-89).
For Example:
G81 Z-20 R-5 F100 K0
G34 X10 Y10 I10 J90 K10
Standard canned cycle instructions must be written before special canned cycle instructions; when the execution of a special canned cycle instruction is finished, the standard canned cycle instruction remains effective until canceled.
For Example:
G81 Z-20 R-5 F100 K0 ’specifying the cycle action
G34 X10 Y10 I10 J90 K10 ’drilling10 holes around a circle
X100 ’drilling another hole, not influenced by the previous G34
If there is no standard canned cycle instruction when executing a special canned cycle instruction, the system will report an error.
If the following instructions are executed:
G0 X0 Y0 Z0
G34 X10 Y10 I10 J90 K10
…
An error prompt as following will pop up:
A correct form should be like:
G0 X0 Y0 Z0

4.5 Expressions Used in Program Instructions

Current Definition for Expression:

All positions behind the address characters that are taken up by numbers can be replaced by assignment expressions.
No characters of space type are allowed to exist in the expression, including Space, Tab and Enter, etc. What’s more, an expression must be ended with a valid separator.

Definition for Assignment Expression:

An assignment expression begins with an equal mark, followed by an arithmetic expression which is constituted by various operators, functions, variables, brackets, etc.
The operators available now are divided into the following seven classes in order of priority:
1. Bracket
2. Function
3. Plus sign +, Minus sign -, NOT !
4. Multiplication *, Division /
5. Addition +, Subtraction –
6. Equal ==, Not equal !=, Greater than >, Less than <
7. OR ||, AND &&

5 Named Parameters

For a common user, the machining workpiece operations and other basic operations provided by the controller can meet his demands, such as: tool calibration, center calibration, canned cycle, etc.
While for an advanced user who needs to modify some operating details, write operating programs and customize canned cycles, the controller provides a group of fast and convenient named parameters. With these parameters, it is not only convenient for the user to modify or write operation programs and customize the content of canned cycle in public.dat to meet the machining demand, but also convenient to write programs directly in the program edit operation interface.
Example 1, Use named parameters to compile a subprogram of tool coolant and tool change, as follows:
O1000 ’subprogram of tool coolant and tool change
M901 H=#COOLANT_START_PORT P1
G04 P10
IF(#ENABLE_CTP) G53 G00 G90 X=#CTP_POS.X Y=#CTP_POS.Y Z=#CTP_POSZ ’move to
the position of tool change
G00 G90 Z10 ’or lift the cutter directly for tool change
M05
M17
Example 2, Use named parameters to modify the content of G86 canned cycle from without retract amount parameter in the system to with retract amount parameter, as follows:

6 Customize and Extend Command M

The user can customize command M and G code by writing subprograms in public.dat. Subprogram no. 200~999 is used by internal interpreter engine. The code range of command M
is 200~599, while that of G code is 600~999.
As a result, command M 0~99 plus 200 is regarded as the corresponding subprogram, while G
code 0~99 plus 600 is regarded as the corresponding subprogram.
Program Example for Custom and Extended M Command:
’Conditional statement ―if‖ can be used to set the actions (like gear shift) during spindle rotating O202 M17 ’spindle CW (only one direction supported) O203 M901 H2 P1 G04 P5 M17 ’spindle CCW (only one direction supported) O204 M901 H2 P1 G04 P5 M17 ’spindle stop O205 M901 H2 P0 G04 P5 M17 ’coolant on O208 M901 H24 P1 G04 P5 M17 ’coolant off O209 M901 H24 P0 G04 P5 M17
