Parameters and pitch error compensation data are input and output from
different screens, respectively. This chapter describes how to enter them.
Parameters are loaded into the memory of the CNC unit from a floppy or
NC tape. The input format is the same as the output format. See Subsec.
III–8.6.2. When a parameter is loaded which has the same data number
as a parameter already registered in the memory, the loaded parameter
replaces the existing parameter.
