Setups

39

Marker Offsets 1 - 12

Enter values for up to twelve programmable marker offsets. The machine is offset by this
amount at maximum speed when the appropriate marker code is detected.

Dwell Time

Specifies the amount of dwell (delay) that is inserted into the current part program when
an appropriate RS-274D program block is reached. This time can be overridden in the
part program. For example, in EIA programming a G04 X3 causes a three second dwell
to be inserted at the current program block. A G04 with no X-code inserts a dwell with
the current Dwell Time parameter.

Arc Radial Error

Specifies the arc error tolerance to be used when checking the current segment for
dimensional accuracy. All ESSI or EIA programs are comprised of lines, arcs, and
circles. Arc Radial Error is used to make sure that the starting and ending radial vectors
are within tolerance to describe a valid geometry.

Dwell Override

When this parameter is enabled, embedded dwell G04 X value codes in an RS-274D
program override the operator-entered dwell time.

Optional Program Stop

Allows overriding of the optional program stop code M01 in the current part program. If
enabled, an M01 code operates identically to M00. If disabled, the M01 code is ignored.

EIA I & J Codes

Selects absolute or incremental RS-274D programming mode. In incremental mode, all
offsets for X, Y, I and J are relative to the current block. In absolute mode, all offsets for
X, Y, I and J are relative to an absolute reference point unless they are changed by using
a G92 (set axis presets) program code.

EIA F-Code Override

When this parameter is enabled, embedded F-codes in an RS-274D program override any
operator-entered cut speed.

Speed +/- Affects F-Codes

When this parameter is enabled, the control applies the speed increase/decrease
percentage to all embedded F-codes that are encountered in the part program.

EIA Decimal Shift

Some programming styles are structured so that the decimal point in the EIA positioning
affecting part sizing is assumed. The EIA decimal shift parameter allows the operator to
select the location of the decimal point when translating parts by selecting normal or
single for the correct translation. The selection should be set to Normal unless your part
programs have only a single digit to the right of the decimal point.
