Table 31- A
Standard T-Line-9 Paramacro Variables
Paramacro
When a 1 is assigned to this value, the control:
1000
raises the transfer bar during a transfer cycle
1001
lowers the transfer bar during a transfer cycle
1002
advances the transfer bar or completes the drill cycle
1003
returns the transfer bar or retracts the tool
1004
stops the part program execution for any manual operations that need to be
performed on the station. If the PLC assigns a 0 to this variable, then the control
goes into automatic execution mode. A cycle advance/return or transfer bar/raise
lower request must be made by the PLC for the CNC to begin automatic axis motion.
1005
performs the cycle in metric units. If this bit is set to 0, then the cycle is performed in
English units.
Paramacro
When the control assigns a 1 to this value, it indicates to PAL that:
1100
the transfer bar has been completely raised
1101
the transfer bar has been completely lowered
1102
the transfer bar is fully advanced or the drill cycle is at the cycle complete position
1103
the transfer bar is fully returned or the drill cycle is at the cycle retract position
1104
the tool is fully returned to the tool change position (as specified in the part program)
