3.2 Creating and writing programs
Organization of an NC program in DIN/ISO
format
A part program consists of a series of program blocks. The figure at
right illustrates the elements of a block.
The TNC numbers the blocks of a part program automatically
depending on MP7220. MP7220 defines the block number increment.
The first block of a program is identified by %, the program name and
the active unit of measure.
The subsequent blocks contain information on:
The workpiece blank
Tool calls
Approaching a safe position
Feed rates and spindle speeds, as well as
Path contours, cycles and other functions
The last block of a program is identified by N99999999 the program
name and the active unit of measure.

Danger of collision!
After each tool call, HEIDENHAIN recommends always
traversing to a safe position from which the TNC can
position the tool for machining without causing a collision!
