Selection with parameters

If bit 4 (PHS) of parameter No. 3206 is 1, selection of input/output signals to be recorded as history data

can be made with parameters.

In this case, if a signal is selected or deselected on the operation history signal selection screen, the value

of the corresponding parameter is automatically changed. If the value of a parameter is changed on the

parameter screen, the display on the operation history signal selection screen is also changed.

The same applies to input operations. If operation history signal selection data is input on the operation

history signal selection screen, the value of the corresponding parameter is automatically changed. If a

parameter is input on the parameter screen, the display on the operation history signal selection screen is

also changed.

13.1 GRAPHIC DISPLAY

The graphic display functions enable drawing of the tool path of the program currently used for

machining.

These functions are intended to display the movement of the tool during automatic operation or during

manual operation.

T

In case of a two-path lathe system, the tool paths of two turrets are drawn at the same time in the right and

left views on one screen.

This enables the operator to check the progress of machining and the current tool position.

These functions include the following:

• The current tool position in the workpiece coordinate system is displayed.

• Graphic coordinates can be set freely.

• Rapid traverse and cutting feed can be drawn using a different color for each.

• The values of F, S, and T in the program during drawing are displayed.

• Graphic enlargement or reduction is possible.
