SECTION TWO - FRONT PANEL OPERATION

Alternatively, the CNC program will use the serial keyboard interface if the serial keyboard

parameter is set to Yes and the letter "s" appears as an option on the command line.

The serial keyboard is enabled in the following examples if the serial keyboard parameter is also

set to yes.

CNC

CNC s (serial keyboard only)

CNC fs (front panel lights, serial keyboard)

CNC as (acroloops, serial keyboard)

CNC afs (same as no options)

The serial keyboard is disabled in the following examples:

CNC n (demo mode)

CNC f (front panel lights)

CNC a (acroloops)

CNC af (acroloops and front panel lights)

CNC b (NCB, Cent 6)

CNC bf (NCB and front panel lights)

Power-On Feedrate: Can be any number up to the maximum feedrate.

Spindle Axis: 1 to 5 1=X, 2=Y, 3=Z, 4=A . . . etc

Normally set to 3 for Z axis.

Primary HDW Encoder The encoder to use for the primary handwheel.

Axis (Cent 6 and up) 7 for standard Cent 6 systems, 8 for standard Cent 7 systems.

Handwheel Used for optional dual handwheel systems (4 if it has the

Encoder Axis: option).

Handwheel Used for optional dual handwheel systems (5 if it has the

Encoder Axis: option).

New remote handwheel: Yes, if it has the new style remote handwheel option.

Remote HDW Encoder: The encoder to use for the remote handwheel.

100% Rapid in Run: No means the feedrate override will affect rapid moves.

Yes means the feedrate override will not affect rapid in the run

mode. Rapid moves are 100%.
