n blocks with either of P1 to P4 following G31 commanded, the
coordinate value where skip signals (4 types) were input is stored in the
custom macro variables, and at the same time, the remaining movement
of the block is skipped. It is also possible to skip the remaining dwell with
the skip signal by parameter, in a block where: G04 is commanded
(dwell).
Parameters decide which skip command or dwell command is valid to
which of the four skip signals. The skip signal is not necessarily unique
to a single skip command or dwell command; it is also possible to set a
skip signal to multiple skip command or dwell commands.
The value displayed as a relative position can be set in the offset memory
as an offset value by a soft key.
Call offset value display screen. Relative positions are also displayed on
this screen. Reset the displayed relative position to zero. Set the tool for
measurement at the same fixed point on the machine by hand. The relative
position display at this point shows difference between the reference tool
and the tool measured and the relative position display value is then set
as offset amounts.
