Calling cycles

The following cycles become effective automatically as soon as they
are defined in the part program. These cycles cannot and must not be
called:

„

Cycle 220 for point patterns on circles and Cycle 221 for point
patterns on lines

„

SL Cycle 14 CONTOUR GEOMETRY

„

SL Cycle 20 CONTOUR DATA

„

Cycle 32 TOLERANCE

„

Coordinate Transformation Cycles

„

Cycle 9 DWELL TIME

You can call all other cycles with the functions described as follows.

Calling a cycle with CYCL CALL

The CYCL CALL function calls the fixed cycle that was last defined. The
starting point of the cycle is the position that was programmed last
before the CYCL CALL block.

8

To program the cycle call, press the CYCL CALL key.

8

Press the CYCL CALL M soft key to enter a cycle call.

8

If necessary, enter the miscellaneous function M (for

example M3 to switch the spindle on), or end the
dialog by pressing the END key

Calling a cycle with CYCL CALL PAT

The CYCL CALL PAT function calls the most recently defined fixed cycle
at all positions defined in a point table (see “Point Tables” on page
268).

Prerequisites

The following data must always be programmed before a
cycle call:

„

BLK FORM

for graphic display (needed only for test

graphics)

„

Tool call

„

Direction of spindle rotation (M functions M3/M4)

„

Cycle definition (CYCL DEF)

For some cycles, additional prerequisites must be
observed. They are detailed in the descriptions for each
cycle.
