What does Mazak parameter TC142 do?

TC142 is a User parameter in the TURNING group of the MAZATROL SmoothX control (INTEGREX e-670H). 8 bit settings.

Which bits does Mazak parameter TC142 have?

Bit 0: Fixed value (0) Bit 1: Selecting an inter-unit relief path when a succession of I.D. turning units using the same tool exist and there is no movement to the rotating position of the tool Bit 2: Selection of the jaw data reference method Bit 3: Using angle tool holder valid/invalid Bit 4: Turning spindle stop M code output in end unit Bit 5: Selection whether an alarm is to be issued if the ending position of workpiece pressing is reached during transfer of the workpiece Bit 6: X-axis retraction position during workpiece transfer as specified in the workpiece transfer unit of the MAZATROL program Bit 7: Upper turret retraction during machining with the lower turret (for MULTIPLEX series)

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 — TC142 is set bit by bit

bit 0
Fixed value (0)
bit 1
Selecting an inter-unit relief path when a succession of I.D. turning units using the same tool exist and there is no movement to the rotating position of the tool
The relationship between the starting position of machining with the next unit and the ending position of machining with the previous unit is examined and if interference is judged to be likely, the tool will escape to a clearance point. The tool escapes to the clearance point each time the I.D. turning unit is executed to completion.
Range 0, 1 · Takes effect: Immediate
bit 2
Selection of the jaw data reference method
Specify the jaw data reference method. Reference using the code number of the jaw. Reference using the name of the jaw.
Range 0, 1 · Takes effect: Immediate
bit 3
Using angle tool holder valid/invalid
Angle tool holder cannot be used. Angle tool holder can be used. Use BA63 to set the angle of the angle tool holder.
Range 0, 1 · Takes effect: Immediate
bit 4
Turning spindle stop M code output in end unit
0: Invalid 1: Valid
Range 0, 1 · Takes effect: Immediate
bit 5
Selection whether an alarm is to be issued if the ending position of workpiece pressing is reached during transfer of the workpiece
An alarm will not be issued even if the ending position of workpiece pressing is reached during the transfer of the workpiece. An alarm will be issued if the ending position of workpiece pressing is reached during the transfer of the workpiece.
Range 0, 1 · Takes effect: Immediate
bit 6
X-axis retraction position during workpiece transfer as specified in the workpiece transfer unit of the MAZATROL program
When the workpiece is transferred as specified in the workpiece transfer unit of the MAZATROL program, the X-axis moves to the machine zero point. When the workpiece is transferred as specified in the workpiece transfer unit of the MAZATROL program, the X-axis moves to the third zero point.
Range 0, 1 · Takes effect: Immediate
bit 7
Upper turret retraction during machining with the lower turret (for MULTIPLEX series)
Upper turret moves to the X-axis zero point during machining with the lower turret. Upper turret retraction does not occur during machining with the lower turret.
Range 0, 1 · Takes effect: Immediate
