11.1 General User Parameters
General user parameters are machine parameters affecting TNC settings
that the user may want to change in accordance with his requirements.
Some examples of user parameters are:
• Dialog language
• Interface behavior
• Traversing speeds
• Sequence of machining
• Effect of overrides
Input possibilities for machine parameters
Machine parameters can be programmed as
• Decimal numbers:
Enter only the number.
• Pure binary numbers:
Enter a percent sign (%) before the number.
• Hexadecimal numbers:
Enter a dollar sign ($) before the number.
Example:
Instead of the decimal number 27 you can enter the binary number
% 11011 or the hexadecimal number $1B.
The individual machine parameters can be entered in the different
number systems.
Some machine parameters have more than one function. The input value
for these machine parameters is the sum of the individual values. For
these machine parameters the individual values are preceded by a plus
sign (
+0
,
+1
, etc.)
Selecting general user parameters
General users parameters are selected with code number 123 in the MOD
functions.
The MOD functions also include machine specific user parameters (USER PARAMETERS).
