Hole patterns in programs

The information for hole patterns can also be written to a program.

Each piece of information is then stored in a separate program

block. These blocks are identified by

CYCL

after the block

number, followed by a number.
The cycles contain all information required by POSITIP for machin-

ing a hole pattern.
There are three cycles for hole patterns:

• CYCL 1.0 FULL CIRCLE
• CYCL 2.0 CIRCLE SEGMENT
• CYCL 4.0 LINEAR HOLE PATTN

Do not delete any blocks from the cycle because this will result in

the error message

CYCLE INCOMPLETE

when the program is

executed.

Hole pattern graphics

The hole patterns in a program can be displayed graphically.
