Tool magazine management
If the tool magazine management function is not active, STRINGIS supplies for the system
parameters of the tool magazine management, independent of the machine data
● MD10711 $MN_NC_LANGUAGE_CONFIGURATION
always a value of 000.
ISO mode
If the "ISO mode" function is active:
● MD18800 $MN_MM_EXTERN_LANGUAGE (activation, external NC languages)
● MD10880 $MN_ MM_EXTERN_CNC_SYSTEM (control system to be adapted)
STRINGIS checks the specified string initially as SINUMERIK G-Code. If the string is not a
SINUMERIK G code, then it is subsequently checked as ISO G code.
Programmed switchovers (
STRINGIS.
Example
The machine data, relevant for the function STRINGIS(...), have the following values:
● MD10711 $MN_NC_LANGUAGE_CONFIGURATION = 2 (only the NC language
● MD19410 $ON_TRAFO_TYPE_MASK = 'H0' (option: transformations)
● MD10700 $MN_PREPROCESSING_LEVEL='H43' (preprocessing for cycles is active)
The following program example is executed without error message:
Program code
N1 R1=STRINGIS("TRACYL")
N2 IF STRINGIS("TRACYL") == 204
N3 TRACYL(1,2,3)
N4 ELSE
N5 G00
N6 ENDIF
N7 M30

R1 == 0, as TRACYL is identified as "not known" because of
the missing transformation option
N3 is skipped
and instead, N5 is executed
