When the parameter No. 5103#2 is set to 1 :
If an axis normal to or parallel with a specified plane is
specified during a hole machining canned cycle, the
specification is regarded as a positioning command.
<7> With a CNC of the T series as well, enter a coordinate value
for milling (such as an I point coordinate in milling-based
hole machining) as a radius value even if the value is an X
coordinate.
4. Machining program entered on a multipath lathe
<1> When creating a machining program for a multipath lathe,
create necessary processes on the process list screen before
creating machining operations. This allows the user to
view the entire machining program more easily.
5. Animated simulation
<1> hen performing machining simulation of a program
including a three-dimensional coordinate conversion
command, increase the dry run feedrate (for example, by
selecting the rapid traverse rate) to speed up the simulation.
<2> If a tool post is placed on the lower side when animated
simulation is performed on a multipath lathe, the machining
performed on the side opposite to the blank can be viewed
during animated simulation by pressing the [REVERS] soft
key.
