Parameters Setup Procedure - R Mode - Easson ES-12 Operation Manuals

R MODE menu is designed to allow user to specifies the Z axis interoplation method during the ARC or R function.
This DRO can offer "MAX CUT" or "Z STEP" for choices.
If "MAX CUT" selected, the ARC or R function calculation will interoplated the ARC in fixed cutting distance
for smooth ARC machining.
If "S STEP" selected, the ARC or R function calculation will interoplated the ARC in fixed Z axis increment for
easier and quick ARC machining.
This parameter is used only in two axes DRO which allows the two axis DRO to simulate the Z axis movement
of the ARC machining function.the Z axis machine increment per line mark of the Z Dial.
For three axes DRO, this parameter ( R MODE ) is not used, no effectiveness.

Parameters Setup Procedure - R MODE

Z STEP mode,
the Z axis interpolate
in a fixed Z axis
increment, it is easier
and quicker for ARC
machining,however,
the machined work
piece is not smooth.

MAX CUT mode,
the Z axis interpolate
in fixed machine length,
it is more time consuming,
but the work piece is smoother
