7.1 Parameter Mode of
Operation
7.1.1 Parameters
The parameters of the CNC PILOT are grouped as
follows:
■ Machine parameters
These are used to adapt the control to the
requirements of the machine, e.g. parameters for
components, assemblies, the assignment of axes,
slides and spindles.
■ Control parameters
These are used to configure the control system
(machine display, interfaces, measuring system
used, etc.).
■ Setup parameters
These define certain settings required for the
production of a specific part (workpiece datum, tool
change position, compensation values, etc.).
■ PLC parameters
These parameters are defined by the machine
manufacturer (see Machine Manual).
■ Machining parameters
These define the strategy for machining cycles and
for TURN PLUS.
In this operating mode, the following operating
resource and technology parameters are managed in
addition (see Chapter ”
8 Operating Resources”:
■ Tool parameters
■ Chucking equipment parameters
■ Technology parameters (cutting values)
This Manual describes parameters that can be
changed by the user (”system manager” user class).
Other parameters are explained in the Technical
Manual.
Data transfer and data backup
The CNC PILOT supports data exchange of
parameters and associated fixed-word lists. All
parameters are included for data backup.
Data transfer and data backup occur in the Transfer
mode of operation – see ”
10.4 Parameters and
Operating Resources.”
