2.2 Program defaults for cycles

Overview

All Cycles 20 to 25, as well as all of those with numbers 200 or higher,

always use identical cycle parameters, such as the set-up clearance
Q200,

which you must enter for each cycle definition. The GLOBAL DEF

function gives you the possibility of defining these cycle parameters

once at the beginning of the program, so that they are effective

globally for all fixed cycles used in the program. In the respective fixed

cycle you then simply link to the value defined at the beginning of the

program.
The following GLOBAL DEF functions are available:

Machining pattern

Soft key

GLOBAL DEF COMMON

Use the INSERT SMART UNIT function (see Special

Functions chapter in the Conversational Programming

User's Manual) and then UNIT 700 to insert all GLOBAL

DEF functions into a block.
