Configuring cycles
22.1
Activating turning/milling/drilling technologies
The cycles are automatically loaded when the controller boots (Power On).
The configuration is realized using cycle machine data and cycle setting data. In so doing, a
differentiation is made between the following data:
● General cycle machine data
● Channel-specific cycle machine data
● Axis-specific cycle machine data
● General cycle setting data
● Channel-specific cycle setting data
● Axis-specific cycle setting data
Precondition for memory configuration
To ensure that the cycles run correctly, the following standard setting must be checked:
MD28082 $MC_MM_SYSTEM_FRAME_MASK
Bit 5
= 1
Adapting the user interface
The softkey display for the selection of the cycle support in the program editor is set using
the following channel-specific configuration machine data:
MD52200 $MCS_TECHNOLOGY
= 1
= 2
