Prep/G-Codes
This has moved to the Linear Motion panel in the Motion section.
Enter the value that sets the position register preset function (usually 92). If the preset function is not available on this machine, enter NA (not available). Also see the postprocessor command SET/START.
Enter the value that sets inch measurement mode, usually 70. If no preparatory code is required for inch mode operation, enter NR (not required). If inch mode operation is not available on this machine, enter NA (not available).
Enter the value that sets metric measurement mode, usually 71. If no preparatory code is required for metric mode operation, enter NR (not required). If metric mode operation is not available on this machine, enter NA (not available).
Enter the value that enables absolute positioning mode (usually 90). If no preparatory code is required for absolute mode, enter NR (not required). If this machine positions in the incremental mode only, enter NA (not available).
Enter the value that enables incremental positioning mode (usually 91). If no preparatory code is required for incremental mode, enter NR (not required). If this machine positions in the absolute mode only, enter NA (not available).
Enter the numeric value of the preparatory code required by your controller for high speed tapping cycles.
Check this option is the prep code is not required.
Check this option is the prep code is not available on the controller.
Check this box if your controller will accept more than one preparatory code in a single machine control data block. Do not check this box if it does not. Equivalent postprocessor commands:
PLABEL/OPTION,34,TO,0 $$ PREFUN/--,NEXT uses single G-code (default).
PLABEL/OPTION,34,TO,1 $$ PREFUN/--,NEXT uses multiple G-codes.
This check box along with the one on the Aux Codes panel indicates that prep or aux code can be greater then 99 if the check box is checked. This is equivalent to PLABEL 64.
In general, rapid positioning will occur to each CL poitn plus clearance (c). This is output as the rapid stop point. The feed distance will be the usm of the values "c" and "z", which is output as the feed stop point. See section 4.15 in the hardcopy of the GPost manual.
Enter the preparatory code required by your controller to turn all cycles off. Enter NA (not available) if no preparatory code is required.
Enter the preparatory code required by your controller to begin the hardware drill cycle. The postprocessor can simulate this cycle by using linear and rapid motion. If your machine controller does not have this hardware cycle, then enter NA (not available) and the postprocessor will simulate the cycle.
Enter the preparatory code required by your controller to begin the hardware CSINK cycle. The postprocessor can simulate this cycle by using linear and rapid motion. If your machine controller does not have this hardware cycle, then enter NA (not available) and the postprocessor will simulate the cycle.
Enter the preparatory code required by your controller to begin the hardware DEEP cycle. The postprocessor can simulate this cycle by using linear and rapid motion. If your machine controller does not have this hardware cycle, then enter NA (not available) and the postprocessor will simulate the cycle.
Enter the preparatory code required by your controller to begin the hardware TAP cycle. The postprocessor can simulate this cycle by using linear and rapid motion. If your machine controller does not have this hardware cycle, then enter NA (not available) and the postprocessor will simulate the cycle.
Enter the preparatory code required by your controller to begin the hardware BORE cycle. The postprocessor can simulate this cycle by using linear and rapid motion. If your machine controller does not have this hardware cycle, then enter NA (not available) and the postprocessor will simulate the cycle.
Enter the preparatory code required by your controller to begin the hardware REAM cycle. The postprocessor can simulate this cycle by using linear and rapid motion. If your machine controller does not have this hardware cycle, then enter NA (not available) and the postprocessor will simulate the cycle.
Enter the preparatory code required by your controller to begin the hardware THRU cycle. The postprocessor can simulate this cycle by using linear and rapid motion. If your machine controller does not have this hardware cycle, then enter NA (not available) and the postprocessor will simulate the cycle.
Enter the preparatory code required by your controller to begin the hardware FACE cycle. The postprocessor can simulate this cycle by using linear and rapid motion. If your machine controller does not have this hardware cycle, then enter NA (not available) and the postprocessor will simulate the cycle.
Enter the preparatory code required by your controller to begin the hardware MILL cycle. The postprocessor can simulate this cycle by using linear and rapid motion. If your machine controller does not have this hardware cycle, then enter NA (not available) and the postprocessor will simulate the cycle.
Enter the preparatory code required by your controller to begin the hardware BRKCHP cycle. The postprocessor can simulate this cycle by using linear and rapid motion. If your machine controller does not have this hardware cycle, then enter NA (not available) and the postprocessor will simulate the cycle.
