Letter Paramacro Label Description
G 500
G90/91 G-codes G90orG91 for absoluteorincrementalmodes. Atthistime onlyabsolute
mode,G90,is available.
X,Y 501, 502
HOLE POSITION X, Y The location towhich the tool moves before itbegins adrilling operation.
X 503
DEPTH OF HOLE The location to which thetool drillsinto the part.
R 504
CLEAR POSITION The locationtowhichthetoolretractsafteran operation.Itiscompletelyfree ofthe part.
Thisalso known astheR plane.
X,Y 505, 506
RETURN POSITION X,Y The locationwherethe controls starts and stops a cycle.
F 507
FEEDRATE The cuttingfeedratefor drilling/boring operations. This is alsothe maximumfeedratefor
operationsthatuseadaptive depth.
P 508
AMOUNT OF DWELL The amountoftimetheaxispauses beforeitretracts from the hole;measuredin
seconds.
X 509
TOOL CHANGEPOSITION The locationatwhichyou canperformatoolchange operation.
E 510
ADAPTIVE FEED MINIMUM This is the minimumfeedrate atwhich the controlperformsanadaptivefeedoperation.
The controlwilltrytomaintain thisminimumfeedrate,evenifitmeans increasingthe
adaptive feed torquepercent.
Q 511
ADAPTIVE FEED TORQUE % Thisis the amountoftheselected servo’s continuousrated torque as enteredin AMPby
yoursysteminstaller. Valid ranges are from1 to 150% oftheservo’srated torque.
Refertoyoursysteminstaller’s documentationfordetailson the rated torque ofthe
servos in your system.
Important:Thetorque amountapplied bytheservo isnotthecuttingforce. Itisthe
torque applied bytheservotothe axis. You mustcalculatetheequivalentcutting force
basedon yourmachine dynamics(motorrated torque,leadscrew pitch,gearing,tool
dimensions, etc...).
I 512

I 513
ADAPTIVE DEPTH
INCREMENT
The amountofdistance thatthecontrol willincrementthetoolinto the partduringan
adaptive depth operation.
M 514
M03/M04 The M--code usedtoturn the spindle clockwise orcounter-clockwise.
S 515
SPINDLE SPEED The speed ofthe spindle.Measuredin revolutions per minute.
