B-63534EN/02

Move the cursor to the compensation value to be set or changed using

page keys and cursor keys, or enter the compensation number for the

compensation value to be set or changed and press soft key

[NO.SRH].

To set a compensation value, enter a value and press soft key [INPUT].

To change the compensation value, enter a value to add to the current

value (a negative value to reduce the current value) and press soft key

[+INPUT]. Or, enter a new value and press soft key [INPUT].

Explanations

D Decimal point input

A decimal point can be used when entering a compensation value.

D Other setting method

An external input/output device can be used to input or output a tool offset

value. See III-8. A tool length offset value can be set by measuring the

tool length as described in the next subsection.

D Tool offset memory

There are tool offset memories A, B, and C, which are classified as

follows:

Tool offset memory A

D codes and H codes are treated the same. Tool geometry compensation

and tool wear compensation are treated the same.

Tool offset memory B

D codes and H codes are treated the same. Tool geometry compensation

and tool wear compensation are treated differently.

Tool offset memory C

D codes and H codes are treated differently. Tool geometry

compensation and tool wear compensation are treated differently.

D Disabling entry of

The entry of compensation values may be disabled by setting bit 0 (WOF)

compensation values

and bit 1 (GOF) of parameter 3290 (not applied to tool offset memory A).

And then, the input of tool compensation values from the MDI can be

inhibited for a specified range of offset numbers. The first offset number

for which the input of a value is inhibited is set in parameter No. 3294.

The number of offset numbers, starting from the specified first number,

for which the input of a value is inhibited is set in parameter No. 3295.

Consecutive input values are set as follows:

1) When values are input for offset numbers, starting from one for which

input is not inhibited to one for which input is inhibited, a warning is

issued and values are set only for those offset numbers for which input

is not inhibited.

2) When values are input for offset numbers, starting from one for which

input is inhibited to one for which input is not inhibited, a warning is

issued and no values are set.

D PARTS COUNT

This value is incremented by one when M02, M30, or an M code specified

by parameter 6710 is executed. The value can also be set by parameter

6711. In general, this value is reset when it reaches the number of parts

required. Refer to the manual issued by the machine tool builder for

details.

D POWER ON

Displays the total time which the power is on. This value cannot be set

on this screen but can be preset in parameter 6750.

D OPERATING TIME

Indicates the total run time during automatic operation, excluding the

stop and feed hold time.

This value can be preset in parameter 6751 or 6752.

D CUTTING TIME

Displays the total time taken by cutting that involves cutting feed such as

linear interpolation (G01) and circular interpolation (G02 or G03). This

value can be preset in parameter 6753 or 6754.

D FREE PURPOSE

This value can be used, for example, as the total time during which coolant

flows. Refer to the manual issued by the machine tool builder for details.

D CYCLE TIME

Indicates the run time of one automatic operation, excluding the stop and

feed hold time. This is automatically preset to 0 when a cycle start is

performed at reset state. It is preset to 0 even when power is removed.

D DATA and TIME

Displays the current date and time. The date and time can be set on this

screen.

Limitations

D Usage

When the command of M02 or M30 is executed, the total number of

machined parts and the number of machined parts are incremented by one.

Therefore, create the program so that M02 or M30 is executed every time

the processing of one part is completed. Furthermore, if an M code set

to the parameter (NO. 6710) is executed, counting is made in the similar

manner. Also, it is possible to disable counting even if M02 or M30 is

executed (parameter PCM (No. 6700#0) is set to 1). For details, see the

manual issued by machine tool builders.

The tool life count can be overridden provided that the life counter is

Override values can be specified using the override switch on the

is not counted. If the count of actual cutting time is less than 4 seconds,

the override value is invalid.

To enable measurement of the tool length, the following functions are

supported: automatic measurement of the tool length by using a program

Tool Length/Workpiece

command (G37) (automatic tool length measurement, described in

Origin Measurement B

Section II.14.2) and measurement of the tool length by manually moving

the tool until it touches a reference position, such as the workpiece top

surface (tool length measurement, described in Subsection III.11.4.2). In

addition to these functions, tool length/workpiece origin measurement B

is supported to simplify the tool length measurement procedure, thus

facilitating and reducing the time required for machining setup. This

function also facilitates the measurement of the workpiece origin offsets.

This function allows the operator to specify T/M code commands or

reference position return, by means of a manual numeric command, while

the tool length offset measurement screen is displayed.

Procedure for measuring the tool length offset value

The tool length offset value can be measured by manually moving the tool

until it touches the workpiece or a reference block. For details of this

operation, refer to the manual supplied by the machine tool builder.

Procedure

Move the tool to the tool change position by means of manual

reference position return, for example.
