12.1 General User Parameters
General user parameters are machine parameters affecting TNC settings
that the user may want to change to adapt to his needs. Some examples
of user parameters are:
• Dialog language
• Interface behavior
• Traversing speeds
• Sequence of machining
• Effect of the overrides
Input possibilities for machine parameters
Machine parameters can be programmed as
• Decimal numbers:
Simply enter the numbers
• Pure binary numbers:
Enter a % (percent sign) before the number
• Hexadecimal numbers:
Enter a $ (dollar sign) before the number
Example:
Instead of the decimal number 27, you can enter the binary number
% 11011 or the hexadecimal number $1B.
The individual machine parameters can be entered in the different numeri-
cal systems.
Some machine parameters have more than one function. The input value
of such parameters is the sum of the individual values. For these machine
parameters the individual values are preceded by a plus sign (
+).
Selecting general user parameters
General users parameters are selected with the code number 123 in the
MOD functions.
The MOD functions also include machine specific user parameters (USER PARAMETERS).
