 On: Internal thread
 Off: External thread
This optional cycle recuts a single or multi-start external or internal
thread. Since you have already unclamped the workpiece, the CNC
PILOT needs to know the exact position of the thread. Place the
cutting tip of the tap drill in the center of a groove and transfer the
positions to the parameters measured angles and measured position
by pressing the Take over position soft key. From these values the
cycle then calculates the angle of the spindle at the starting point.
This function is available only in manual operation.
