General information

The following sections describe how turning cycles are
programmed. This section is intended to guide you in
selecting cycles and assigning them with parameters. In
addition to a detailed description of the function of the
individual cycles and the corresponding parameters,
you will also find a programming example at the end of
each section to familiarize you with the use of cycles.
The sections are structured as follows:
• Programming
• Parameters
• Function
• Sequence of operations
• Explanation of parameters
• Additional notes
• Programming example.
"Programming" and "Parameters" explain the use of
cycles sufficiently for the experienced user, whereas
beginners can find all the information they need for
programming cycles under "Function", "Sequence of
operations", "Explanation of parameters", "Additional
notes" and the "Programming example".
