Calling a cycle in connection with point tables
If you want the TNC to call the last defined fixed cycle at the points
defined in a point table, then program the cycle call with CYCLE CALL
PAT
:
8 To program the cycle call, press the CYCL CALL key.
8 Press the CYCL CALL PAT soft key to call a point
table.
8 Enter the feed rate at which the TNC is to move from
point to point (if you make no entry the TNC will move
at the last programmed feed rate; FMAX not valid).
8 If required, enter a miscellaneous function M, then
confirm with the END key.
The TNC retracts the tool to the safety clearance between the starting
points. Depending on which is greater, the TNC uses either the spindle
axis coordinate from the cycle call or the value from cycle parameter
Q204 as the safety clearance.
If you want to move at reduced feed rate when pre-positioning in the
spindle axis, use the miscellaneous function M103 (see “Feed rate
factor for plunging movements: M103” on page 240).
With CYCL CALL PAT the TNC runs the point table that you
last defined (even if you defined the point table in a
program that was nested with CALL PGM).
