Unit 40 Conversational Unit
Use this unit to insert conversational dialog sequences between
machining blocks. It can always be used in the following cases:
„ You require TNC functions for which form entry is not yet available
„ You want to define OEM cycles
„ You want to insert any positioning movements between units
„ You want to define machine-specific M functions
The following conversational functions, for which no form input is
possible, can be inserted:
„ Path functions L, CHF, CC, C, CR, CT, and RND via the gray path function
keys
„ STOP block via the STOP key
„ Separate M-function block via ASCII key M
„ Tool call with the TOOL CALL key
„ Cycle definitions
„ Touch-probe cycle definitions
„ Program section repeats/subprogram technique
„ Q-parameter programming
There is no limit to the number of conversational
programming blocks that can be entered per conversational
dialog sequence.
