Switching CNC screens for turning and milling modes
Some data such as parameters, offsets or so are independent for each
command mode, turning and milling, because different values should
be specified.
2.3.1
Display Switch Signal
There are separate CNC screens for modes, which can be switched by
a PMC signal DTM(G193#0).
Switching can be done at any timing.
On the mode-dependent screens, the data peculiar to modes are
specified.
The data common for modes are displayed and specified on same
screens regardless of modes.
The following table shows the data common or independent for
modes.
