NOTE
Notching for end faces may not be possible due to a tool
nose radius compensation interference alarm, depending
on the cut profile.
Furthermore, one of the tool offset data items (number of
offset groups, offset number 16 in the case of group 16, or
number 32 in the case of group 32, or number 64 in the case
of group 64, or number 98 in the case of group 99) is
exclusively used for the offset data above, so the offset data
item cannot be used for other purposes.
When the cursor is moved to the end of program, a new process is
automatically created and the machining type menu is displayed in the
soft key field.
Pressing the [C–NOTC] soft key selects C–axis notching.
NOTE
When data other than 0 is specified for BEVEL–AM, the
following chamfering process is automatically created.
