Insert Rounding Arc Between Straight Lines: M - HEIDENHAIN ITNC 530 User Manual

Insert rounding arc between straight lines: M112

Compatibility
For reasons of compatibility, the M112 function is still available.
However, to define the tolerance for fast contour milling,
HEIDENHAIN recommends the use of the TOLERANCE cycle (see
"Special Cycles" on page 476).
Do not include points when executing non-
compensated line blocks: M124
Standard behavior
The TNC runs all line blocks that have been entered in the active
program.
Behavior with M124
When running non-compensated line blocks with very small point
intervals, you can use parameter T to define a minimum point interval
up to which the TNC will not include points during execution.
Effect
M124 becomes effective at the start of block.
The TNC automatically resets M124 if you select a new program.
Programming M124
If you enter M124 in a positioning block, the TNC continues the dialog
for this block by asking you the minimum distance between points T.
You can also define T through Q parameters (see "Principle and
Overview" on page 532).
