Supplementary conditions

7.1

Supplementary conditions

Availability of the "ISO dialect" function

The function is standard for the SINUMERIK 840Dsl and 828D.

7.2

Constraints

The functions with which non-compatible behavior towards ISO dialect original occurs in the

SINUMERIK 840D sl ISO dialect mode are listed below.

Mode switchover

The standard machine data block only realizes "Siemens" mode. No external NC language is

generated as the 2nd G code table.

Machine data $MN_NC_USER_CODE_CONF_NAME_TAB is only valid for NC language

commands in Siemens mode.

For reasons associated with compatibility with Siemens mode (relating to machine data input,

BTSS interface"data field"[0] = 1st G group), in ISO dialect mode, the G groups 0 defined in the

ISO dialect original system are implemented:

ISO dialect M: G group 0 → G group 18

ISO dialect T: G group 0 → G group 17

Implied mode change

Asubs, INI files and macro/GUD definition files are always processed in Siemens mode. If

necessary, an implicit mode change to Siemens mode is undertaken here. At the end of

processing, a switch is made back to the external CNC system's original mode.

7.2.1

Program commands

F value

ISO dialect M has fixed F values which are selected using F1 to F9. These fixed values are not

available in ISO dialect mode. F1 to F9 is interpreted as values F1 to F9.

Supplementary conditions

7.2 Constraints

G02/G03

G02/G03 programming without radius details in ISO dialect T original results in G01, in ISO

dialect M original it results in a complete circle with an undefined radius. In ISO dialect mode,

an NC alarm is output in both cases.

G04 X..

With ISO dialect original, the dwell time is displayed in the X axis as distance-to-go. This dwell

time is not displayed in ISO dialect mode, the "Dwell time running" message appears.

G16

Polar coordinate programming is ended with G15.

With ISO dialect original, the pole radius and pole angle are retained. When G16 is next

programmed, incremental additions can be made to the angle. Non-reproducible traversing is

undertaken. The angle and radius are deleted using a reset or M30.

In ISO dialect mode, G15 is used to delete the pole radius and pole angle. G16 always results

in an angle and radius of 0 being traversed.

Example: Axis U is parallel to axis X

G17 U Y ; plane U Y is selected rather than plane X Y.

In ISO dialect mode, a parallel axis cannot be programmed with G17/G18/G19.

G20/G21

In ISO dialect original mode, the work offsets are not converted during the switchover. The

comma is simply moved by one decade. The work offset values are converted in full in ISO

dialect mode.

G22

In ISO dialect M original, G22 is used to activate protection zone 4. This does not exist in step

1. Protection zones 1/2 and 3 are realized. Protection zone 4 is permanently entered in ISO

dialect using machine data. This is not possible with the 840D sl. There is only one protection

zone in ISO dialect mode.

G40

In ISO dialect T mode, a vector which influences the response at the block end can be

programmed in the linear block with I, J, K. This function is not available in ISO dialect original

mode. If I, J and K is programmed for G40, an NC alarm is output.

G41/G42

The milling radius compensation functions are not compatible between ISO dialect original and

840D sl.

Supplementary conditions

7.2 Constraints

G53

If G53 (approach position in machine coordinate system) is called while G41/G42 is active, the

axes are not traversed separately but in an interpolating manner.

G63

With ISO dialect, G63 can be written in every block. The override is locked in this block.

Override 0 also results in a stop at the start of a G53 block. This function is helpful when used

in conjunction with tapping without floating tapholder in a G01 interpolation. In ISO dialect

mode, G63 is only effective in a G01 block. If G63 is selected in a G00 block, this has no impact

on this block.

G94/G95

If a change is made from revolutional feedrate (G95) to linear feedrate (G94) or vice versa,

feedrate F has to be reprogrammed each time. If there is no feedrate, this results in alarm

10860 "No feedrate programmed". When changing the type of feedrate, ISO dialect original

mode interprets the feedrate programmed either as revolutional or linear feedrate.

M06

Tool change cycle: If MD10715 $MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE and 10716

$MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE_NAME are used to assign a cycle to an M function, not all the

parameters programmed in the block can be accessed in the cycle. Only the programmed tool

number can be read with $C_T/$C_T_PROG. Traversing in the M block is retracted before the

call.

G functions that define the syntax

With ISO dialect original several G commands that define syntax can be programmed in a

block. A distinction is made as to:

● Defining syntax → non-modal

● Defining syntax → modal

● Non-syntax → modal

● Non-syntax → non-modal

In Siemens mode, more than one G function that defines syntax in a block will result in an alarm.

7.2.2

Tool management

Tool management and service life and quantity monitoring can be reproduced with the Siemens

tool management function.

Supplementary conditions

7.2 Constraints

Tool data

Milling: Only tool compensation memory C is supported, i.e. the tool compensation memory is

spread over several columns (D == H applies).

The version where the tool and compensation number for milling are produced from the same

value is not supported.

The current tool data cannot be read out/archived in ISO dialect mode (G10). The tool data can

only be changed via G10 if the tool compensation has been set up via operator input.

Tool length compensation

If the tool length compensation input in the diameter is active, the input for geometry and wear

in the diameter can be parameterized with ISO dialect original. Only wear in the diameter is

stated in ISO dialect mode. The geometry is always stated in the radius.

With ISO dialect original, the tool length is calculated as diameter or radius in the transverse

axis depending on a machine parameter.

In Siemens mode the tool length compensation is always calculated as diameter; a switchover

is not possible.

The tool length compensation cannot be undertaken by moving the coordinate system.

Geometry and wear cannot be taken from different compensation memories for turning

technology.

Modified tool compensations take effect when the next T, H or D value is programmed.

7.2.3

Control response with power on, reset and block search

Power on

During power on, the Siemens G code list containing possible recoding from MD10712

$MN_NC_USER_CODE_CONF_NAME_TAB is created for all NC channels.

Power up, reset

The power up and reset response is defined using MD 20150

$MC_GCODE_RESET_VALUES[46] and depending on MD10880

$MN_MM_EXTERN_CNC_SYSTEM.

This decides between the G codes of ISO dialect M and ISO dialect T.

Switching between Siemens and ISO dialect mode in the program sequence has no impact on

the modal G functions.

Block search

The "Search for block end point" block search type available in Siemens mode corresponds to

the block search response in ISO dialect.

10715

M_NO_FCT_CYCLE

Data type: DWORD

Meaning:

M number with which the subprogram is called.

The name of the subprogram is stored in MD10716 $MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE_NAME[n]. If

the M function defined using $MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE[n] is programmed in a part program,

then the subprogram defined in M_NO_FCT_CYCLE_NAME[n] is started at the end of block.

If the M function is reprogrammed in the subprogram, then there is no longer any replacement

by a subprogram call.

$MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE[n] acts in the Siemens mode G290 as well as in the external lan-

guage mode G291.

Restrictions:

The subprograms configured with MD10716 $MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE_NAME[n] and

MD10717 $MN_T_NO_FCT_CYCLE_NAME[ ] must not be effective in one block (part program

line) at the same time, i.e. max. one M/T function replacement can be effective per block.

Neither an M98 nor a modal subprogram call may be programmed in the block with the M

function replacement. A subprogram return jump or end of part program is also not permitted.

Alarm 14016 is generated in the case of a conflict.

A subprogram call must not be superimposed on M functions with predetermined significance.

Alarm 4150 is generated in case of a conflict:

The following M functions are checked:

● M0 to M5

● M17, M30

● M19

● M40 to M45

● M functions for switching over spindle/axis mode according to MD20094

$MC_SPIND_RIGID_TAPPING_M_NR (default M70).

● M functions for nibbling/punching that were activated via MD26008 $MC_NIB-

BLE_PUNCH_CODE according to configuration.

● For applied external language (MD18800 $MN_MM_EXTERN_LANGUAGE) also M19,

M_NO_FCT_CYCLE_NAME[0]

Meaning:

The cycle name is stored in the machine data. This cycle is called if the M function was

programmed from MD10715 $MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE.

If the M function is programmed in a traversing block, then the cycle is executed after the

motion.

MD10715 $MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE acts in the Siemens mode G290 as well as in the exter-

nal language mode G291.

If a T number is programmed in the call block, the programmed T number can be queried in the

cycle under the variable $P_TOOL.

M and T function replacement may not be effective in one block at the same time, i.e. max. one

M/T function replacement can be effective per block.

Neither an M98 nor a modal subprogram call may be programmed in the block with the M

function replacement. A subprogram return jump or end of part program is also not permitted.

Alarm 14016 is generated in the case of a conflict.

Unit: -

Data type: STRING

Meaning:

Cycle name of the tool change routine during call via T function. If a T function is programmed

in a part program block, then the subprogram defined in T_NO_FCT_CYCLE_NAME is called

at the end of the block.

The programmed T number can be queried in the cycle via the system variables $C_T/

$C_T_PROG as decimal value and via $C_TS/$C_TS_PROG as string (only with tool man-

agement).

MD10717 $MN_T_NO_FCT_CYCLE_NAME acts in the Siemens mode G290 as well as in the

external language mode G291.

MD10716 $MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE_NAME and MD10717 $MN_T_NO_FCT_CY-

CLE_NAME must not be effective in one block at the same time, i.e. max. one M/T function

replacement can be effective per block.

Neither an M98 nor a modal subprogram call may be programmed in the block with the T

function replacement. A subprogram return jump or end of part program is also not permitted.

Protection level: 7/2

Unit: -

Data type: DWORD

Meaning:

This machine data is used to define whether tool length and tool radius compensations are also

to be suppressed in the language commands G53, G153 and SUPA. The machine data is bit-

coded.

Bit 0 = 0: G53, G153 and SUPA is a non-modal suppression of work offsets. Active tool length

and tool radius compensation is retained.

Bit 0 = 1: G53, G153 and SUPA is a non-modal suppression of work offsets, active tool length

and tool radius compensation. The behavior regarding the tool lengths can be modified with bit

1. Bit 1 is only evaluated if bit 0 has the value 1.

Bit 1 = 0: If bit 0 is set, the tool length is always suppressed for G53, G153 and SUPA.

Bit 1 = 1: If bit 0 is set, the tool length is only suppressed for G53, G153 and SUPA if a cutting

edge is selected but not in the same block (this may even be the cutting edge which is already

active).

EXTERN_M_NO_MAC_CYCLE

Meaning:

M number with which a macro is called.

The name of the subprogram is stored in $MN_EXTERN_M_NO_MAC_CYCLE_NAME[n]. If

the M function is programmed in a part program block defined with $MN_EX-

TERN_M_NO_MAC_CYCLE[n], the subprogram defined in EXTERN_M_NO_MAC_CY-

CLE_NAME[n] is started, and all the addresses programmed in the block are written to the

associated variables.

If the M function is reprogrammed in the subprogram, then there is no longer any replacement

by a subprogram call.

$MN_EXTERN_M_NO_MAC_CYCLE_NAME[n] operates only in the external language mode

G291.

The subprograms configured with $MN_EXTERN_M_NO_MAC_CYCLE_NAME[n] must not

be effective in one block (part program line) at the same time, i.e. max. one M function re-

placement can be effective per block. Neither an M98 nor a modal subprogram call may be

programmed in the block with the M function replacement. A subprogram return jump or end

of part program is also not permitted. Alarm 14016 is generated in the case of a conflict. For

constraints, see machine data 10715 $MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE

Data type: DOUBLE

Meaning:

G number with which a macro is called.

The name of the subprogram is stored in MD10817 $MN_EXTERN_G_NO_MAC_CY-

CLE_NAME[n].

If a G function defined with $MN_EXTERN_M_NO_MAC_CYCLE[n] is programmed in a part

program block, the subprogram defined in EXTERN_M_NO_MAC_CYCLE_NAME[n] is star-

ted, and all the addresses programmed in the block are written in the related $C_xx variable.

If a subprogram call is already active via an M/G macro or an M substitution, no subprogram

call is executed. If in this case a standard G function is programmed, then it is executed,

otherwise alarm 12470 is output.

$MN_EXTERN_G_NO_MAC_CYCLE[n] acts only in the external language mode G291.

In one block there may only be one subprogram call. That is, in one block only one M/G function

replacement may be programmed and there may be no additional subprogram calls (M98) or

cycle calls in the block.

A subprogram return jump or end of part program is also not permitted in the same block. Alarm

14016 is generated in the case of a conflict.

T=1234 ; Tool number 12,

; Offset number 34

Bit 0 = 1: Effective only in case of $MN_MM_EXTERN_CNC_LANGUAGE = 2: Only the tool

number is programmed in the T word. Offset number == tool number.

$MN_DIGITS_TOOL_NO is irrelevant.

Example:

T=12 ; Tool number 12

; Offset number 12

Bit 1 = 0: Effective only in case of $MN_MM_EXTERN_CNC_LANGUAGE = 2: If the number

of digits programmed in the T value is the same as the number defined in $MN_EXTERN_DIG-

ITS_TOOL_NO, then leading 0 are added.

Bit 1 = 1: Effective only in case of $MN_MM_EXTERN_CNC_LANGUAGE = 2: If the number

TERN_DIGITS_TOOL_NO, then the programmed number is applicable as offset and tool

number

Bit 2 = 0: Effective only in case of $MN_MM_EXTERN_CNC_LANGUAGE = 2: ISO T offset

selection only with D (Siemens cutting edge number)

Bit 2 = 1: Effective only in case of $MN_MM_EXTERN_CNC_LANGUAGE = 2: ISO T offset

selection only with H ($TC_DPH[t,d])

Bit 6 = 0: The compensation memory for tool length and tool radius are coupled such that tool

length and tool radius are always selected with the H or D programming.

Bit 6 = 1: The compensation memory for tool length and tool radius are decoupled such that the

tool length value number is selected with the H programming and the tool radius value number

with the D programming.

Unit: -

Data type: BYTE

Meaning:

In this MD, the channel axis is specified to which the geometry axis is assigned. The assign-

ment for all the geometry axes is to be done channel-specifically. If no assignment is defined

for a geometry axis, then this geometry axis does not exist and cannot be programmed (with

the names defined in MD20060 AXCONF_GEOAX_NAME_TAB).

For example: Turning machine without transformation:

$MC_AXCONF_GEOAX_ASSIGN_TAB[ 0 ] = 1 ; 1st geometry axis = 1st channel axis

$MC_AXCONF_GEOAX_ASSIGN_TAB[ 1 ] = 0 ; 2nd geometry axis not defined

$MC_AXCONF_GEOAX_ASSIGN_TAB[ 2 ] = 2 ; 3rd geometry axis = 2nd channel axis

AXCONF_GEOAX_NAME_TAB

Meaning:

In this MD, the names of the geometry axes are entered separately for the channel. Geometry

axes can be programmed in the part program with the names specified here.

Special cases:

- The geometry axis name must not clash with the designation and assignment of the machine

and channel axis names.

- The geometry axis name entered must not overlap with the names for the Euler angle (MD

10620: EULER_ANGLE_NAME_TAB), names for the direction vectors (MD 10640: DIR_VEC-

TOR_NAME_TAB), names for the coordinates of the intermediate circuit point for CIP (MD

10660: INTERMEDIATE_POINT_NAME_TAB) or the names for the interpolation parameters

(MD 10650: IPO_PARAM_NAME_TAB).

- The geometry axis name entered must not use the following reserved address letters:

- D tool compensation (D function) - E reserved

- F feedrate (F function) - G distance condition

- H auxiliary function (H function) - L subprogram call

- M additional function (M function) - N subordinate block

- P number of subprogram repetitions - R arithmetic parameter

- S spindle number (S function) - T tool (T function)

- Keywords (e.g. DEF, SPOS, etc.) and predefined identifiers (e.g. ASPLINE, SOFT) are also

not permitted.

- The use of an axis identifier, consisting of a valid address letter (A, B, C, I, J, K, Q, U, V, W,

X, Y, Z), followed by an optional numerical extension (1-99), offers slight benefits in the block

cycle time compared with issuing a general identifier.

channel axis / special axis is always displayed on the monitor of WCS (Workpiece Coordinate

System) with the names input in this MD.

Special cases:

- The channel axis name / special axis name entered must not clash with the designation and

assignment of the machine and geometry axis names.

- The channel axis name entered must not overlap with the names for the Euler angle

(MD10620 $MN_EULER_ANGLE_NAME_TAB), names for direction vectors (MD10640

$MN_DIR_VECTOR_NAME_TAB), names for the coordinates of the intermediate circuit point

for CIP(MD10660 $MN_INTERMEDIATE_POINT_NAME_TAB) and names for interpolation

parameters (MD10650 $MN_IPO_PARAM_NAME_TAB).

- The channel axis name entered must not use the following reserved address letters:

- D tool compensation (D function) - E reserved

- F feedrate (F function) - G distance condition

- H auxiliary function (H function) - L subprogram call

- M additional function (M function) - N subordinate block

- P number of subprogram repetitions - R arithmetic parameter

- S spindle number (S function) - T tool (T function)

- Keywords (e.g. DEF, SPOS etc.) and predefined identifiers (e.g. ASPLINE, SOFT) are also

not permitted.

- The use of an axis identifier, consisting of a valid address letter (A, B, C, I, J, K, Q, U, V, W,

X, Y, Z), followed by an optional numerical extension (1-99), offers slight benefits in the block

cycle time compared with issuing a general identifier.

- A unique name does not need to be entered in this MD for channel axes which are assigned

geometry axes (normally the first three channel axes).

Axis identifiers which are not permitted are rejected using a power up alarm.

GCODE_RESET_MODE

Meaning:

This machine data is only evaluated if bit 0 is set in MD20110 $MC_RESET_MODE_MASK.

This MD is used to define for each entry in MD20150 $MN_GCODE_RESET_VALUES (i.e. for

each G group), whether a setting according to the $MC_GCODE_RESET_VALUES is under-

taken again for a reset/part program end (MD = 0) or whether the current setting is retained (MD

= 1).

Example:

The normal position of the 6th G group (current level) is read from the MD20150

$MC_GCODE_RESET_VALUES for each reset / part program end here:

$MC_GCODE_RESET_VALUE[5]=1; Reset value of 6th G group is M17

$MC_GCODE_RESET_MODE[5]=0; Normal position of the 6th G group after reset / part pro-

gram end is according to MD20150 $MC_GCODE_RESET_VALUES[5]

However, if the current setting of the 6th G group (current level) is to be retained beyond reset /

part program end, then we have the following setting:

$MC_GCODE_RESET_VALUE[5]=1; Reset value of 6th G group is M17

$MC_GCODE_RESET_MODE[5]=1; Current setting of the 6th G group is retained even after

reset / part program end

EXTERN_GCODE_RESET_MODE

Data type: BYTE

Meaning:

This MD is only evaluated if bit 0 is set in MD20110 $MC_RESET_MODE_MASK (see there)!

This MD is used to define for each entry in MD20154 $MN_EXTERN_GCODE_RESET_VAL-

UES (i.e. for each G group), whether a setting according to the MD $MC_EX-

TERN_GCODE_RESET_VALUES is undertaken again for a reset / part program end (MD=0)

or whether the current setting is retained (MD=1).

Example of ISO dialect mode:

The normal position of the 14th G group (adjustable work offset) is read from the machine data

$MC_EXTERN_GCODE_RESET_VALUES for each reset / part program end here:

$MC_EXTERN_GCODE_RESET_VALUES[13]=1; Reset value of the 14th group is G54

$MC_EXTERN_GCODE_RESET_VALUES(13)=0; Normal position of the 14th G group after

reset / part program end is defined via MD20154 $MC_EXTERN_GCODE_RESET_VAL-

UES[13]

However, if the current setting of the 14th G group is to be retained beyond reset/part program

end, then we have the following setting:

$MC_EXTERN_GCODE_RESET_VALUES[13]=1; Reset value of the 14th group is G54

$MC_G_CODE_GCODE_RESET_VALUES(13)=0; Current setting of the 14th G group is re-

Changes effective after RESET

Protection level: 7/2

Unit: -

Data type: BYTE

Meaning:

In ISO dialect M (G43/G44) the machine data determines how the length compensations

programmed with H are processed.

0: Mode A

Tool length H always impacts on the third geometry axis (usually Z)

1: Mode B

Depending on the active plane, tool length H impacts on one of the three geometry axes and

in the case of

G17, this is the 3rd geometry axis (usually Z)

G18, this is the 2nd geometry axis (usually Y)

G19, this is the 1st geometry axis (usually X)

Offsets can be built up in this mode in all three geometry axes through multiple programming

i.e. by activating a component the length offset possibly active in another axis is not deleted.

2: Mode C

Regardless of the active plane, the tool length impacts in the axis which was simultaneously

programmed with H. The behavior is otherwise the same as for variant B

GCODE_GROUPS_TO_PLC_MODE

Data type: DWORD

Meaning:

To set the behavior of how the G groups are to be interpreted as data in the PLC.

According to the current behavior (bit 0=0), the G group is the array index of a 64-byte field

(DBB 208 - DBB 271).

In the new behavior (Bit 0=1), the data storage in the PLC is a maximum of eight bytes (DBB

208-DBB 215) large.

At the most, the 64th G group can therefore be reached.

With this process, the array index of this byte array is identical to the index of MD22510

$MC_GCODE_GROUPS_TO_PLC[Index] and MD22512 $MC_EX-

TERN_GCODE_GROUPS_TO_PLC[Index]. Here, each index (0-7) should only be entered for

one of the two items of machine data, the value 0 must be entered for the relevant other MD.

Bit 0 (LSB) = 0: Response as previously, the 64-byte large array is used for the display of the

G code.

Bit 0 (LSB) = 1: The user defines the G groups for which the first eight bytes are to be used

REFP_SET_POS

Meaning:

- Incremental encoder with zero mark(s):

The position value which is set as the current axis position after the zero mark has been

detected and after traversing distance REFP_MOVE_DIST + REFP_MOVE_DIST_CORR

(relative to zero mark). REFP_SET_POS of the reference point number set at the time of the

positive edge of the reference cam signal (NC/PLC interface signal (reference point value 1-4))

is set as the axis position.

- Distance-coded measuring system:

Target position which is approached when MD34330 $MA_REFP_STO_AT_ABS_MARKER is

set to 0 (FALSE) and two zero marks have been passed.

- Absolute value encoder:

MD34100 $MA_REFP_SET_POS corresponds to the current actual value at the adjustment

position.

The reaction on the machine depends on the status of MD34210 $MA_ENC_REFP_STATE:

When ENC_REFP_STATE = 1, the value of REFP_SET_POS is taken as the absolute value.

When MD34210 $MA_ENC_REFP_STATE = 2 and MD34330

$MA_REFP_STOP_AT_ABS_MARKER = 0 (FALSE), the axis approaches the target position

saved in MD34100 REFP_SET_POS.

The value of $MA_REFP_SET_POS which is set using (NC/PLC interface signal (reference

point value 1-4)) is used.

Corresponds to:

NC/PLC interface signal DB31.DBX2.4-2.7 (reference point value 1-4)

SPIND_ASSIGN_TO_MACHAX

MD number

Assignment of spindle to machine axis

Default setting: 0

Min. input limit: 0

Max. input limit: 20

Changes effective after POWER ON

Protection level: 7/2

Unit: mm, degrees

Data type: BYTE

Meaning:

Definition of the spindle. The spindle is defined when the spindle number is entered in this MD.

Example:

If the axis in question is to be spindle 1, "1" should be entered in this MD. The spindle functions

are only available for modulo rotary axes. MD30300 $MA_IS_ROT_AX and MD30310

$MA_ROT_IS_MODULO should be set for this purpose.

The axis functionality is retained, the transition to axis mode can be made using M70. The

spindle data is set for specific gear levels in parameter sets 1...5, parameter set 0 is used in axis

mode (MD35590 $MA_PARAMSET_CHANGE_ENABLE).

The minimum spindle number is 1, the maximum number depends on the number of axes in

the channel.

If other spindle numbers are to be issued, the "spindle converter" function should be used.

In multiple-channel systems, the same numbers can be issued in all channels other than for

spindles which are registered in several channels (interchange axes/spindles MD30550 AX-

COF_ASSIGN_MASTER_CHAN).

TOOL_LENGTH_CONST

Data type: DWORD

Meaning:

If this setting data is not zero, the assignment of tool lengths 1 to 3 (length, wear, tool base

dimension) to the geometry axes when changing machining plane (G17 to G19) is not

changed.

The assignment of tool length components to geometry axes results from the setting data value

according to the table below.

During assignment, a distinction is made between turning and grinding tools (tool types 400 to

599) and other tools (typically milling tools).

The representation in the tables assumes that geometry axes 1 to 3 are identified as X, Y and

Z. The axis order and not the axis identifier determines the assignment between a compen-

sation and an axis.

Assignment for turning and grinding tools (tool type 400 to 599):

Content - Length 1 - Length 2 - Length 3

18*)

-17

-18

-19

* Each value not equal to 0, which is not equal to one of the six listed values, is evaluated as

value 18. If values are of the same amount but have different signs, the assignment of length

3 is the same and lengths 1 and 2 are swapped. Assignment for all tools which are not turning

or grinding tools (tool types < 400 or > 599):

Content - Length 1 - Length 2 - Length 3

17*)

-17

-18

-19

* Each value not equal to 0, which is not equal to one of the six listed values, is evaluated as

value 17.

If values are of the same amount but have different signs, the assignment of length 1 is the

same and lengths 2 and 3 are swapped.

TOOL_LENGTH_TYPE

Data type: DWORD

Meaning:

This setting data defines the assignment of tool length components to geometry axes regard-

less of tool type. Values between 0 and 2 can be accepted. Any other value is interpreted as

0: The assignment is performed by default. A distinction is made between turning tools (tool

types 400 to 599) and other tools (milling tools).

1: The assignment of the tool length components is, independent of the actual tool type, always

the same as for milling tools.

2: The assignment of the tool length components is, independent of the actual tool type, always

the same as for turning tools.

The setting data also affects the wear values assigned to length components.

If SD42940 $SC_TOOL_LENGTH_CONST is set, the table for milling and/or turning tools

defined by SD42950 $SC_TOOL_LENGTH_TYPE is accessed in the tables defined there

regardless of the actual tool type if the value of the turning tools is not 0.

Alarms

If error conditions are detected in cycles, an alarm is generated and the execution of the cycle

is aborted.

The cycles continue to output messages in the dialog line of the control. These message will not

interrupt the program execution.

Alarms with numbers between 61000 and 62999 are generated in the cycles (see /DA/,

Diagnostics Manual and /PGZ/, Cycles, Programming Manual). This range of numbers, in turn,

is divided again with regard to alarm responses and cancel criteria.

The table below also contains error messages for the cycles described in the chapter "Cycles

and contour definition".
