3.5.2. Feedback messages of the thread tapping machine
Upon completion of an operation cycle, the machine responds in the following
manner:
-
‘Y’ cycle ready, no error
- ‘X’
error
In the event of an error, code “Q?” can be used to request an indication as to the
nature of the error.
3.5.3. How to request for specific values
The request is done by sending the code for a specific value followed by “?” and
“CR LF”.
EXAMPLE: Q?<CR>
The thread tapping machine responds then with the same code and its current
value.
EXAMPLE: Q=2<CR>
The following values are monitored exactly:
Value
Code Value range
Mz cut (compl. cut
process forerun)
‘c’ values

Mz (compl. cut process

(30 – 7000 Ncm)
The status of “Mz” can be requested with “M?”.
After response “Y” the tapping torque “Mz” is monitored (machine ready, no error).
