Use the AMP parameters described in this section only when the control is
operating in 7300 mode. This feature allows existing part programs from

Allen-Bradley 7320 and 7360 tapes to be read, and executed using the

control. Refer to Appendix D of your programming and operation manual

for details on 7300 mode.

Important: To use the 7300 tape compatibility feature, the system installer

must have developed PAL to enable this feature. Refer to the system

installer’s documentation or your reference manual for details on how the

7300 series CNC tape format feature is activated.

This feature is not available on the 9/230 control and Grinder

configurations.

Function

This parameter is used by mill controls when operating in 7300 mode and

calling one of these cycles:

G-code

Cycle

G82

Drilling cycle (dwell, rapid out)

G88

Boring cycle (spindle stop, manual out)

G89

Boring cycle (with dwell, feed out)

This parameter is not available for lathe or grinder controls.

Use this parameter to determine the time the drilling axis remains at the

bottom of the hole (dwells) before retracting to the R-plane. Enter a dwell

duration in seconds.

For details on the operation of a dwell in a fixed cycle, refer to the P word

discussion in your mill programming and operation manual. The control

takes the dwell time you assign here and uses it as the value of P in the

fixed cycle format.

Important: When performing a dwell in a fixed cycle while in 7300 mode,

only a dwell in units of seconds is available. A dwell cannot be performed

in units of spindle revolutions.
