Explanation 
  - Sequence number after the program is executed 

After the specified sequence number is found during the execution of 
the program, the sequence number set for sequence number 
compensation and stop is decremented by one. 

 - Exceptional blocks 

If the predetermined sequence number is found in a block in which all 
commands are those to be processed within the CNC control unit, the 
execution does not stop at that block. 

[Example]  N1 #1=1 ; 
 

N2 IF[#1 EQ 1]GOTO 08 ; 

 

N3 GOTO 09 ; 

 

N4 M98 P1000 ; 

 

N5 M99 ;

 

In the example shown above, if the predetermined sequence number is 
found, the execution of the program does not stop. 
 

  - Stop in the canned cycle 

If the predetermined sequence number is found in a block which has a 
canned cycle command, the execution of the program stops after the 
return operation is completed. 
 

  - When the same sequence number is found several times in the program 

If the predetermined sequence number appears twice or more in a 
program, the execution of the program stops after the block in which 
the predetermined sequence number is found for the first time is 
executed. 
 

  - Block to be repeated a specified number of times 

If the predetermined sequence number is found in a block which is to 
be executed repeatedly, the execution of the program stops after the 
block is executed specified times.

Various run times, the total number of machined parts, number of 
parts required, and number of machined parts can be displayed.   
This data can be set by parameters or on this screen (except for the 
total number of machined parts and the time during which the power 
is on, which can be set only by parameters). 
This screen can also display the clock time. The time can be set on the 
screen.

12.SETTING AND DISPLAYING DATA

 

 

- 1651 - 

Explanation 
 - PARTS TOTAL 

This value is incremented by one when M02, M30, or an M code 
specified by parameter No. 6710 is executed. This value cannot be set 
on this screen. Set the value in parameter No. 6712. 
 

 - PARTS REQUIRED 

It is used for setting the number of machined parts required. 
When the "0" is set to it, there is no limitation to the number of parts. 
Also, its setting can be made by the parameter No 6713. 
 

 - PARTS COUNT 

This value is incremented by one when M02, M30, or an M code 
specified by parameter No. 6710 is executed. The value can also be set 
by parameter No. 6711. In general, this value is reset when it reaches 
the number of parts required. Refer to the manual issued by the 
machine tool builder for details. 
 

 - POWER ON 

Displays the total time which the power is on. This value cannot be set 
on this screen but can be preset in parameter No. 6750. 
 

 - RUN TIME 

Indicates the total run time during automatic operation, excluding the 
stop and feed hold time. 
This value can be preset in parameter No. 6751 or No. 6752. 
 

 - CUTTING TIME 

Displays the total time taken by cutting that involves cutting feed such 
as linear interpolation (G01) and circular interpolation (G02 or G03). 
This value can be preset in parameter No. 6753 or No. 6754. 
 

 - FREE PURPOSE 

This value can be used, for example, as the total time during which 
coolant flows. Refer to the manual issued by the machine tool builder 
for details. 
 

 - CYCLE TIME 

Indicates the run time of one automatic operation, excluding the stop 
and feed hold time. This is automatically preset to 0 when a cycle start 
is performed at reset state. It is preset to 0 even when power is 
removed. 
 

  - DATA and TIME 

Displays the current date and time. The date and time can be set on 
this screen.
