CNC Configuration
PSS Project Settings offer several different modes for working with G and M Codes. If the Project Settings option
is selected without a project open, the Open Project dialog box will open and prompt the operator to select a
project before beginning the cutting sequence. At this point, the operator may select the Project Settings option
and proceed with the job file.
The operator must select absolute or incremental control mode to begin the cutting sequence. Additional
classifications and parameters can be set once the control mode is defined.
A.
Control Mode
1.
Absolute mode (G90) instructs the controller system to determine measurements from the established
Soft Home.
2. Incremental or relative mode (G91) instructs the controller system to determine measurements from the
last tool position.
B. Multi-Quadrant Mode
refers to G74 (multi-quadrant mode off) and G75 (multi-quadrant mode on) codes.
When this option is checked, the controller will function in multi-quadrant mode. When this option is
unchecked, the controller will function in single-quadrant mode.
C. Mcode Definitions
1.
Add
opens a dialog box with several combination boxes, allowing the operator to establish an M-Code
definition with several parts.
2.
Mcode
shows the code designation.
3.
Device
designates a numeric value for each associated tool.
4.
State
indicates whether the system is active (with tool engaged) or inactive (with tool disengaged).
5.
Graphic
indicates either Yes (the sequence typically follows a tool function) or No (the sequence follows
non-tool functions).
