VARIOUS FUNCTIONS AND
PRECAUTIONS OF Symbolic FAPT
45
NOTE
1 If, on the tool data setting screen for machining definition,
the answer to the prompt asking whether to invert the
X–axis is set to 1 (yes), a machining area is not
automatically set, even when the automatic process
determination option is enabled. The cutting direction and
dividing direction should be defined manually.
2 The automatic process determination function cannot be
used to define a process in which the X–axis is to be
inverted. (Using the automatic process determination
function generates those processes in which the X–axis is
not to be inverted.)
3 On menu 5, the [ANIMATION] soft key does not appear.
When an NC data is prepared, only those machining
operations indicated by line drawing are shown.
4 In 16–TC CAP II and 16i–TA CAP II, gradation display is
disabled for animated simulation on menu 6.
5 In the following cases, the prompt asking whether to invert
the X–axis does not appear on the tool data setting screen
for machining definition.
(1)When C– or Y–axis machining is specified
(2)When the back machining function is set
(3)When the workpiece inversion function is set
