DATA REQUIRED, CONT’D.
TYPE 6: Special Functions.
Quadrant determined by function selected.
1. REPEAT: Another complete shape will be repeated a specified number
of times. The “Shape No.” of the repeated shape MUST BE LOWER
then the “Shape No__.” of the current shape being programmed.
Therefore it CANNOT BE USED IN “Shape No. 0”.
Data required: 1. “Shape No. __” To be repeated.
2. Number of times repeated.
2. CALL PIPE CUT
This function allows a PIPE cut to be inserted into the SHAPE program
segment sequence. For instance: Move back a certain distance, call PIPE cut
to make a hole, then move somewhere else and continue cutting.
When programming with the Hand held Terminal, the display will only ask for
“Cut No.?” The PIPE cut has to be programmed separately (either before or after
programming the SHAPE), and the Cut No. it is programmed into entered as data. For
example: Program a fishmouth PIPE CUT Type 1, 4.00" on 8.00", in Cut No. 2. When
entering Type 6, Quad 2 in the Shape Program, it will ask for “Cut No.?; just enter “2.”
3. AUXILIARY MODES: Provide commands to turn “ON / OFF” two line-switching
outputs independently, and also switching speeds from set speed to rapid
traverse and back. Mode numbers are from 0 to 7. Refer to the Mode Chart in
this manual to select a mode.
4. SET PERCENT SPEED: Used to change the speed of the machine in the
middle of a shape to a lower speed. Refer to The Set Percent Speed section of
this manual.
TYPE 7: Clockwise arc, must be less than 180 degrees.
Quadrant determined by direction of end point of arc relative to the start point.
Dimensions required:
1. X-dimension, offset along the X-axis from start to end point.
2. Y-dimension, offset along the Y-axis from start to end point.
3. Radius of the arc.
TYPE 8: Counter-clockwise arc, must be less than 180 degrees.
Quadrant determined by direction of end point of arc relative to the start point.
Dimensions required:
1. X-dimension, offset along the X-axis from start to end point.
2. Y-dimension, offset along the Y-axis from start to end point.
3. Radius of the arc.
