Template 1: Drilling Cycle, No Dwell/Rapid Out
Letter Paramacro Label Description
G 500 G90/91 G-codes G90 or G91 for absolute or incremental modes. At this time only absolute
mode, G90, is available.
X,Y 501, 502 HOLE POSITION X, Y The location to which the tool moves before it begins a drilling operation.
X 503 DEPTH OF HOLE The location to which the tool drills into the part.
R 504 CLEAR POSITION The location the tool retracts to after an operation. It is completely free of the part.
This also known as the R plane.
X,Y 505, 506 RETURN POSITION X, Y The location where the controls starts and stops a cycle.
F 507 FEEDRATE The cutting feedrate for drilling/boring operations. This is also the maximum feedrate
for operations that use adaptive depth.
X 508 TOOL CHANGE POSITION The location at which you can perform a tool change operation.
E 509 ADAPTIVE FEED MINIMUM This is the minimum feedrate at which the control performs an adaptive feed
operation. The control will try to maintain this minimum feedrate, even if it means
increasing the adaptive feed torque percent.
Q 510 ADAPTIVE FEED TORQUE % This is the amount of the selected servo’s continuous rated torque as entered in
AMP by your system installer. Valid ranges are from 1 to 150% of the servo’s rated
torque. Refer to your system installer’s documentation for details on the rated torque
of the servos in your system.
Important: The torque amount applied by the servo is not the cutting force. It is the
torque applied by the servo to the axis. You must calculate the equivalent cutting
force based on your machine dynamics (motor rated torque, lead screw pitch,
gearing, tool dimensions, etc...).
I 511 HARD STOP SENSE ZONE Once it reaches this location, the control knows to expect a hard stop before
reaching the hole bottom.
I 512 ADAPTIVE DEPTH INCREMENT The amount of distance that the control will increment the tool into the part during an
adaptive depth operation.
M 513 M03/M04 The M--code used to turn the spindle clockwise or counter-clockwise.
S 514 SPINDLE SPEED The speed of the spindle. Measured in revolutions per minute.
