NOTE
1 The function of a machine system depends not only on the
NC, but on the combination of the machine tool, its magnetic
cabinet, the servo system, the NC, the operator’s panels,
etc. It is too difficult to describe the function, programming,
and operation relating to all combinations. This manual
generally describes these from the stand–point of the NC.
So, for details on a particular machine, refer to the manual
issued by the machine tool builder, which should take
precedence over this manual.
2 Headings are placed in the left margin so that the reader can
easily access necessary information. When locating the
necessary information, the reader can save time by
searching though these headings.
3 Programs, parameters, variables, etc. are stored in the NC
unit internal non–volatile memory. In general, these
contents are not lost by the switching ON/OFF of the power.
However, it is possible that a state can occur where precious
data stored in the non–volatile memory has to be deleted,
because of deletions from a maloperation, or by a failure
restoration. In order to restore rapidly when this kind of
mishap occurs, it is recommended that you create a copy of
the various kinds of data beforehand.
