Feedrate Parameters

Chapter 9

9-13

Function

Use this parameter to enter the amount of inaccuracy permitted when

programming the creation of an arc. The control takes the distance from

the start-point of the arc to the center-point, and the distance from the

end-point of the arc to the center-point, and determines the difference

between these two distances.

If the difference between these two lengths is greater than the value entered

for this parameter, the control generates an error.

This error is normally generated when using I, J, K to program the arc

center. When using an R to program the arc center, the only time this error

may occur is if the distance between the start-point and end-point of the arc

is more than twice the programmed radius.

Notes

This is a global parameter. The value set here applies to all axes.

For Dual Processing controls, these are per process parameters. The values

set in the parameters apply to all of the axes assigned to that process.
