Option File Generator HelpPLABELs 51 - 60
Normally the machine X dimensions shown in the verification listing are presented as radii (Spindle centerline to tool tip). This option allows you to specify the verification data be output as part diameters (modified by tool nose radius). Selection of this option does not imply that the machine control data file is modified - this data is controlled via the Machine Tool Type/Specs panel. Equivalent postprocessor commands:
PLABEL/OPTION,51,TO,0 $$ Print verification X in radius (default).
PLABEL/OPTION,51,TO,1 $$ Print verification X in diameter.
This option is provided for consistency with our previous versions of the generalized postprocessor. You should not set this option. Use the Machine Tool Type panel to accommodate the settings addressed by this option.

The automatic preset blocks can be output BEFORE or AFTER the T-code block which indexes the turret. The order is significant on some machine tools. The sequence may determine whether the offsets are applied immediately or with the next motion block. Check this box if you wish for the preset blocks to be output BEFORE the tool change block. Equivalent postprocessor commands:
PLABEL/OPTION,54,TO,0 $$ Output axis preset block after T-code (default).
PLABEL/OPTION,54,TO,1 $$ Output axis preset block before T-code.

This option provides control of conditions where a thread lead of zero would be output or suppressed. Equivalent postprocessor commands:
PLABEL/OPTION,56,TO,0 $$ Output zero in thread register (default).
PLABEL/OPTION,56,TO,1 $$ Do not output zero in thread register.
This option provides control of how the X verification register is presented in the verification listing. Equivalent postprocessor commands:
PLABEL/OPTION,57,TO,0 $$ Output absolute registers as modified by the axis multipliers (default).
PLABEL/OPTION,57,TO,1 $$ Output absolute registers the same as input is programmed.
This option provides control of output of the thread lead registers when the lead values are repetitious. Equivalent postprocessor commands:
PLABEL/OPTION,58,TO,0 $$ Thread lead registers are non-modal (default).
PLABEL/OPTION,58,TO,1 $$ Thread lead registers are modal.
This option provides control of the registers for the secondary turret. Equivalent postprocessor commands:
PLABEL/OPTION,59,TO,0 $$ Change XZ to UW for secondary turret for 2+2 lathes (default).
PLABEL/OPTION,59,TO,1 $$ Do not Change XZ to UW on 2+2 lathes.
This option controls emptying of register addresses when the postprocessor command MODE/INCR or MODE/INCR,OFF is used. When switching between incremental and absolute mode it is necessary to clear the state of letter address registers to ensure subsequent machine control data output is complete for operational needs. Equivalent postprocessor commands:
PLABEL/OPTION,60,TO,0 $$ MODE/INCR empties previous A to Z (default).
PLABEL/OPTION,60,TO,1 $$ MODE/INCR empties previous XYZABC only.
