3.1.13.10 Operator guidance macros (OGM) and back translation

Precondition:

Input displays and the associated operator guidance macros developed by the machine
manufacturer on the WS800A NC workstation are stored on the UMS of the system and
can be activated. The displays shown in this section are only examples. See the
machine manufacturer’s instructions for current menus, display descriptions and
operating sequences.

Assignment of parameters to part programs can be supported graphically using these
configured input displays. If the operator inputs values into a display of this type, they are
stored in the configured input buffer (MIB) when the INPUT key is pressed. These values can
be inserted into the program section preconfigured by the operator guidance macro (OGM)
and placed in the part program in the program memory using the softkey function "Store".

Parts and data blocks of this kind can be present in a part program several times with the
same structure but variable values.

The function "Back translation" permits you to display a part program section generated using
OGMs in its input display again, then to display the data and update the program with the
softkey function "store".

Operator guidance macros and configured input displays are developed using WS 800A. The
result of such a configuration might be:

%BFM 7

(OGM: grooving)

R1= ˜101 R12= ˜112 ...

The OGM number is between 1 and 998.
%BFM 999 contains a cross-reference list of all OGMs.

e.g.

%BFM 999
