MEASURE bit settings (7 bits)

Machine-specific. This parameter list is specific to the Mazak INTEGREX e-670H / e-670H-S with the MAZATROL SmoothX control (manual HA64HA0035E). Other Mazak models and control generations use different addresses, ranges and meanings — verify on your own control before changing anything.
Bit settings — K257 is set bit by bit
  1. bit 0

    Fixed value (1)

    Set the angle of the mill spindle when the tip of the tool in the mill spindle is oriented in the +X-axis direction in orbit machining. During rapid feed (G00), the tool is said to be in a singular posture when the vector normal to machining face and the tool posture vector are parallel. When the orientations of the two vectors are within the threshold value, the tool is considered to be in a singular posture. * When 0 is set, 500 (0.0000500°) is assumed. * For other than rapid feed (G00), parameter K251 is used.

  2. bit 1

    Jaw shape data: registration count

    0: 50 items 1: 400 items * After changing the setting of K257 bit1, initialize jaw shapes with the data initialization operation.

    Range 0, 1 · Takes effect: At power on

  3. bit 2

    Fixed value

  4. bit 3

    Direction of mill spindle rotation in orbit machining

    0: Rotated in the forward direction 1: Rotated in the reverse direction

    Range 0, 1 · Takes effect: Immediate

  5. bit 4

    Speed clamp alarm display in orbit machining

    Display of the alarm 1154 FEED LIMITED IN ORBIT MACHINING upon clamping the speed in orbit machining 0: Not displayed 1: Displayed

    Range 0, 1 · Takes effect: Immediate

  6. bit 6

    Fixed value (0)

  7. bit 7

    Fixed value (1)
