Defining Contour Descriptions - HEIDENHAIN ITNC 530 User Manual

Defining contour descriptions

With the DECLARE CONTOUR function you enter in a program the path for
programs from which the TNC draws the contour descriptions. In
addition, you can select a separate depth for this contour description
(FCL 2 function):
Press the DECLARE soft key.
Press the CONTOUR soft key.
Enter the number for the contour designator QC, and
confirm with the ENT key.
Enter the full name of the program with the contour
description and confirm with the END key, or if
desired,
Define a separate depth for the selected contour.
With the given contour designators QC you can include the
various contours in the contour formula.
With the DECLARE STRING function you define a text. This
function is currently not evaluated.
If you program separate depths for contours, then you
must assign a depth to all subcontours (assign the depth 0
if necessary).
