SECTION 1 PROGRAM CONFIGURATIONS
8.
Program Storage Memory Capacity
The NC uses memory to store machining programs. The memory capacity is selectable depending
on the size of the machining program. For execution, a program is transferred from the memory to
the operation buffer (RAM). The capacity of the operation buffer is indicated by one program
capacity.
If the size of the program to be executed is large, it is necessary to expand the one program
capacity. The one program capacity can be selected from 320 m (1049.92 ft), 640 m (2099.84 ft.),
1280 m (4199.68 ft.), to expand program storage capacity.
9.
Variable Limits
On execution of a command that specifies axis movement to a target point beyond the variable limit
in the positive direction, the specified target point is replaced with the variable limit in the positive
direction.
For commands specifying axis movement to a target point beyond the variable limit in the negative
direction, axis movement is not executed and an alarm occurs.
