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 the tool drills into thepart. Ifthe cycle uses adaptive depth,this
position needsto be beyond the adaptive depth increment.
R 504
CLEAR POSITION The locationtowhichthetoolretractsafteran operation.Itiscompletelyfree ofthe part.
Thisalso known astheR plane.

RETURN POSITION X,Y The locationwherethe controls starts and stops a cycle.
F 508
FEEDRATE The feedrate for drilling/boring operations. T his isalso the maximumfeedratefor
operationsthatuseadaptive depth.
X 509

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...).

ADAPTIVE DEPTH
INCREMENT
The amountofdistance between the surfaceofthe partandthe depth ofhole.
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.
