Binary value of path 1 1 (0000 0000 0000 0001)
Binary value of path 3 4 (0000 0000 0000 0100)
Binary value of path 5 16 (0000 0000 0001 0000)
Binary value of path 7 64 (0000 0000 0100 0000)
Binary value of path 9 256 (0000 0001 0000 0000)
Sum 341 (0000 0001 0101 0101)
Balance cutting can be performed for all of the five paths by
specifying P341 together with the balance cut G code (G68).
- Balance cut specified with a combination of path numbers
When bit 1 (MWP) of parameter No. 8103 is set to 1, the value
specified at address P is assumed to be a combination of path numbers.
The following table lists the path numbers and corresponding values.
Path number Value (decimal number)
1 1
2 2
3 3
4 4
5 5
6 6
7 7
8 8
9 9
10 0
To perform balance cutting for all of paths 1, 2, and 3, the P value is a
number consisting of 1, 2, and 3.
Example) P123
There are no restrictions on the order in which the numeric characters
are specified, the following six possible values can be specified:
P123, P132, P213, P231, P312, P321
Path numbers specified in combination in different orders for different
paths are effective as long as the numbers of the relevant paths are
specified.
Example) The following are treated as the same P value and
these paths can be made to wait for one another:
M200P123 for path 1, M200P231 for path 2, and
M200P321 for path 3
To perform balance cutting for all of paths 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9, the P
value is a number consisting of 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9.
Example) P13579
