6-4. Detailed Description of the Menus
[OTHERS] Submenu
REVOLUTION
Saved Yes
Setting ON, OFF
Default ON
When set to [OFF], the spindle does not rotate at all. The spindle does not rotate even when commands are received from the
computer, but movement of the spindle head is performed.
OVER AREA
Saved Yes
Setting CONTINUE, PAUSE
Default CONTINUE
This makes the setting for operation on receiving a command for movement outside the range of operation for the X and Y axes.
The spindle head stops moving when the X or Y axis goes outside the range of operation. Movement starts again when a command
to return from that location to the range of operation is received. When this is set to [CONTINUE], operation resumes at this time
without change. When this is set to [PAUSE], operation is paused and you can select whether to resume operation or quit cutting.
COMMAND MODE
Saved Yes
Setting 1, 2, AUTO
Default AUTO
This selects the type of commands received from the computer. [1] selects RML-1 mode 1 and [2] selects RML-1 mode 2. When
this is set to [AUTO], the command first received after the power is switched on is recognized, and the setting for mode 1 or mode
2 is made automatically.
AUTO Z CONTROL
Saved Yes
Setting ON, OFF
Default OFF
Set this to [ON] in cases such as when you are using the nose unit. When this is set to [ON], then whenever the tool is lowered the
height of the workpiece surface is detected and the Z0 position is set automatically.
Note that this feature is available only in the cases described below. The function is disabled at other times, and operation is the
same as when [AUTO Z CONTROL] is set to [OFF].
• When performing cutting using a computer (not available when performing cutting using the teaching feature).
• When moving the spindle head using the Z-axis movement button.
• When moving the spindle head using the D, M, I, R, PA, PD, PR, or PU command in the RML-1 command set (not available
when using the Z, !ZM, or !ZZ command).
Also, when this function is set to [ON], the Z-axis origin-point setting menu is not displayed and !PZ and !Z0 commands are
ignored.
When you tighten the lock nut to lock the spindle head, be sure to set this to [OFF].
UP LENGTH
Saved Yes
Setting 0 to 2,000 (one step = 0.01 mm)
Default 500 (5 mm)
This is displayed when [AUTO Z CONTROL] is set to [ON]. This sets the amount of cut-out when [AUTO Z CONTROL] is set
to [ON]. Note that due to the characteristics of the machine, the actual amount of cut-out may not necessarily be the same as the
value of the setting.
