B-63950EN/02 4.DESCRIPTION OF PARAMETERS
- 241 -
yy : Tool offset number
NOTE
A value longer than the setting of parameter No.
3032 (allowable number of digits of a T code) cannot
be set.
5029 Number of tool compensation value memories common to paths
NOTE
When this parameter is set, the power must be
turned off before operation is continued.
[Input type] Parameter input
[Data type] Word
[Valid data range] 0 to 999
When using memories common to paths, set the number of common
tool compensation values in this parameter.
Ensure that the setting of this parameter does not exceed the number
of tool compensation values set for each path (parameter No. 5024).
[Example 1]
When parameter No. 5029 = 10, parameter No. 5024 (path 1) =
15, and parameter No. 5024 (path 2) = 30 in a 2-path system, tool
compensation numbers 1 to 10 of all paths are made common.
[Example 2]
When parameter No. 5029 = 20 and the other conditions are the
same as for Example 1, tool compensation numbers 1 to 15 are
made common.
NOTE
1 When a multi-path system involving the machining
center system and lathe system is used, memories
are made common in each system.
2 In each of the machining center system and lathe
system, the same unit of tool compensation values
needs to be used.
3 Ensure that the setting of parameter No. 5029 does
not exceed the number of tool compensation
values for each path (parameter No. 5024). If the
setting of parameter No. 5029 exceeds the number
of compensation values of a path, the least of the
numbers of compensation values in all paths is
made common.
4 When 0 or a negative value is set, memories
common to paths are not used.
