PROGRAMMING18. SPECIFYING THE LASER FUNCTION

In step control mode, only the laser power is changed according to the set
distances; other conditions such as the frequency, duty, and feedrate are
not changed. The data effective at that time is inherited. After the 10th
step, where ramp UP operation ends, the laser power is held constant. That
is, the laser power assumed at the 10th step remains effective until ramp
DOWN operation starts. If, during ramp UP or ramp DOWN operation,
the amount of movement in one interpolation period in the CNC is larger
than the distance for one step, the power may not be changed accurately
in ten steps. Should this occur, adjustment is required with the ramp
distance per step, feedrate, time constant, or bit 7 of parameter No. 15008.

RMP In the step function,
0 : Measures the movement distance with the UP/DOWN step distances
only.
1 : Measures the movement distance with the UP/DOWN step and the
specified feed rate.
