Siemens SINUMERIK 828D Commissioning Manual page 465

For plane selection when milling, appropriately set the following machine data:
MD52005 $MCS_DISP_PLANE_MILL
= 17
= 0
= 17
= 18
= 19
Simulation and simultaneous recording
In order that simulation and simultaneous recording are displayed without any errors, set the
machine data as described in the following section:
Setting the technology for simulation (Page 67)
Defining the direction of rotation
In order that the direction of rotation is correctly displayed in the ShopMill user interface, and
when programming ShopMill functions, the correct direction of rotation is executed, you must
make some settings that are coordinated with one another. You must align these settings to
the actual direction of rotation of the axis at the machine.

In the cycle support
G17 (default value)
G18
G19
Displayed direction of rotation for M3 is counter-clockwise (for spindles)
Direction of rotation M3 corresponds to rotary axis minus (for spindles)
This bit must be set analog to PLC bit DB38xx.DBX2001.6.
Tapping also without encoder
The setting depends on whether at the machine the tool spindle is equipped with an encoder.
= 0 Tapping only possible with encoder
= 1 Tapping also possible without encoder
Constant cutting speed referred to the diameter of the centering
= 0 Constant cutting speed referred to the diameter of the tool
= 1 Constant cutting speed referred to the diameter of the centering
Coolant OFF (default value)
Coolant 1 ON
Coolant 2 ON
Coolants 1 and 2 ON
