HEIDENHAIN CNC PILOT 4290 579
7.4 Control Parameters
Control parameters for simulation
Parameters for simulation
20 Time counting for general simulation
These times are used as nonmachining times for the time calculation function.
Evaluation: Time calculation (Simulation mode)
Tool change time [sec]
Gear shifting time [sec]
Time allowance for M functions [sec]: All M functions are rated with this time. If an M function is also
specified in control parameter 21, the time allowances entered here are added.
21 Time counting for simulation: M function
Declare individual time allowances for a maximum of 10 M functions.
Evaluation: Time calculation in simulation mode
1..10. M function: Number of M function
Time allowance [sec]: Individual time allowance. The time calculation function in simulation mode adds the
specified time to the time allowance entered in control parameter 20.
22 Simulation: Default window size (X, Z)
The simulation function adapts the window size to the workpiece blank. If no blank part is programmed, the
CNC PILOT uses a standard window size.
Evaluation: Simulation mode
Zero position X: Distance of the origin of the coordinate system from the lower window frame
Zero position Z: Distance of the origin of the coordinate system from the left window frame
Delta X: Vertical expansion of the graphics window
Delta Z: Horizontal expansion of the graphics window
23 Simulation: Standard workpiece blank
If no blank part is programmed, the CNC PILOT uses a standard blank.
Evaluation: Simulation mode
Outside diameter
Workpiece blank length
Right edge of blank part (oversize), reference: Workpiece zero point
Inside diameter for hollow cylinders, solid blanks: 0
