Axis name Setting Axis name Setting
U 85 A 65
V 86 B 66
W 87 C 67
1022 Setting of each axis in the basic coordinate system
NOTE
When this parameter is set, power must be turned off before
operation is continued.
[Data type] Byte axis
To determine the following planes used for circular interpolation, cutter
compensation C (for the F series), tool nose radius compensation (for the
T series), etc., each control axis is set to one of the basic three axes X, Y,
and Z, or an axis parallel to the X, Y, or Z axis.
G17: Plane Xp–Yp
G18: Plane Zp–Xp
G19: Plane Yp–Zp
T series: Set 1 for the first axis and 3 for the second axis.
Setting Meaning
1 X–axis of the basic two axes
2 Z–axis of the basic two axes
F series: Set 1 for the first axis, 2 for the second axis, and 3 for the third
axis.
Setting Meaning
1 X–axis of the basic three axes
2 Y–axis of the basic three axes
3 Z–axis of the basic three axes
Set a value in the following table for the fourth axis:
Setting Meaning
0
This axis is not one of the three basic axes and their parallel
axes.
5 Axis parallel to the X–axis
6 Axis parallel to the Y–axis
7 Axis parallel to the Z–axis
