Running a Program

Chapter 7

7-18

(1) Pressing

<CYCLE STOP>

When you press the

<CYCLE STOP>

button, motion of the cutting tool

decelerates and stops, and the control stops automatic operation. If you

press the

<CYCLE STOP>

button during a dwell, the dwell is interrupted and

any remaining time/revolutions for the dwell are stored for later execution.

(2) Execution of an M00 or M01 in a Part Program

Execution of:

Description:

M00

the control stops automatic operation after it executes the

remaining commands in the M00 block.

M01

if the OPTIONAL STOP condition is set to ON, the control stops

automatic operation after it executes the remaining commands in

the M01 block. If the OPTIONAL STOP condition is set to OFF,

the M01 is ignored and the control continues executing the part

program as normal. The optional stop condition may be turned off

or on using the Front Panel feature, or through a switch installed

by your system installer.

(3) Entering a Sequence Stop Number

To interrupt execution at a specific block in the part program, use the

sequence stop feature described on page 7-2. The control stops automatic

operation after it completes the commands in the designated block.

(4) Feedhold Status

Your system installer may have written PAL to allow the activation of a

feedhold state through the use of a button or switch. When activated the

control decelerates all moving axes to a feedrate of zero until the feedhold

state is deactivated. For details on using feedhold, refer to documentation

provided by your system installer.

QuickCheck is a basic syntax checker for a part program. It checks that
proper format and syntax have been followed during programming. No

actual axis motion is produced in QuickCheck mode. The QuickCheck

feature is also available with an optional graphics feature.

If you use the graphics feature, refer to chapter 8 for QuickCheck with

graphics. If you are using a dual-processing system, refer to page 30-4 for

details about how the systems differ.

To use the QuickCheck feature as described below without graphics, the

graphics option must be disabled as described in chapter 8.
