Cylindrical/Virtual C Parameters
These parameters specify the configuration of the axes during cylindrical
interpolation operations on a mill or virtual C operations on a lathe. Refer
to your programming and operation manual for more information. If you
are using the multi-spindle feature, the virtual C parameters apply only to
the Spindle 1.
The workstation displays these screens when you select the
“Cylindrical/Virtual C Parameters” group from the main menu screen:
