After process data is entered and confirmed, moving the cursor to the next
line of the process data displays the figure data for the threading process.
(1) General threads
STAT–P (X, Z): Coordinates of a threading start point
END–PT (X, Z): Coordinates of a threading end point
NOTE
1 One threading process allows up to five threading areas to
be specified.

TC: Distance required for the spindle to reach a stable speed (parameter 9831)
NOTE
2 To enter the figure data for the second and subsequent
threading areas, move the cursor to the next line. This
operation displays the figure data for the next threading
area. Then, specify the figure data in the same way as
above.
If the next process has already been entered, an input line for the new
figure data can be opened by pressing [INSERT].
Once the input of all required threading area figure data has been
completed, press [FIGURE END].
