- 47 -
# 7 DWT When time for dwell per second is specified by P, the increment
system:
0: Depends on the increment system
1: Does not depend on the increment system (1 ms)
1020 Program axis name for each axis
[Input type] Parameter input
[Data type] Byte axis
[Valid data range] 67,85 to 90
An axis name (axis name 1: parameter No. 1020) can be arbitrarily
selected from 'A', 'B', 'C', 'U', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', and 'Z'. (When G code
system A is used with the lathe system, however, 'U', 'V', and 'W' are
not selectable.) When bit 0 (EEA) of parameter No. 1000 is set to 1,
the length of an axis name can be extended to three characters by
setting axis name 2 (parameter No. 1025) and axis name 3 (parameter
No. 1026) (extended axis name).
For axis names 2 and 3, a character from '0' to '9' and 'A' to 'Z' of
ASCII code can be arbitrarily selected. However, the setting of axis
name 3 for each axis is invalid if axis name 2 is not set. Moreover, if
a character from '0' to '9' is set as axis name 2, do not use a character
from 'A' to 'Z' as axis name 3.

When G code system A is used with the lathe system, and the
character 'X','Y','Z', or 'C' is used as axis name 1 of an axis, a
command with 'U','V','W', or 'H' specified for axis name 1 represents
an incremental command for the axis.
NOTE
1 When a multiple repetitive canned cycle for turning
is used, no character other than 'X','Y', and 'Z' can
be used as the address of the axis.
2 When the custom macro function is enabled, the
same extended axis name as a reserved word
cannot be used. Such an extended axis name is
regarded as a reserved word.
3 In a macro call, no extended axis name can be
used as an argument.
