MACHINE PARAMETERS
In order for the machine tool to be able to properly execute the programmed instructions, the CNC
must know the specific data of the machine such as feedrate, acceleration, feedback, automatic tool
change, etc.
This data is set by the machine manufacturer and must be stored in the machine parameter tables.
These tables may be edited in this work mode or copied from the hard disk (KeyCF) or a PC as
described later on. When accessing this operating mode, the CNC will show the tables that are saved
in the hard disk (KeyCF).
The CNC has the following groups of machine parameters:
• General machine parameters.
• Machine parameters for the axes (one table per axis)
• Spindle parameters.
• Drive parameters.
• RS-232-C serial port configuration parameters.
• Ethernet configuration parameters.
• PLC Parameters.
• Auxiliary M functions.
• Leadscrew error compensation (one table per axis).
• Cross Compensations between two axes (for example: ram sag)
First, the general machine parameters must be set since they determine the machine axes.
It must also be defined whether the machine has cross compensation and between which axes, and
the CNC will generate the corresponding cross compensation parameters.
By means of the general machine parameters, the table lengths for the tool magazine, tools, tool
offsets and the miscellaneous M functions are defined.
Use the axis parameters to determine whether leadscrew error compensation will be applied or not
and define the length of the corresponding table.
Once the general machine parameters are defined, press [SHIFT]+[RESET] for the CNC to enable
the required tables. We recommend to save the tables into the hard disk (KeyCF), a peripheral device
or a PC.
