Description
Shift amount of unidirectional positioning
(G60)
Program type M, E
Conditions After stop of movement
I1
Unit
0.0001 mm/0.00001 inch
(0.0001°)
Setting range 0 to ±99999999
The amount and direction of shift from the final setting position during
unidirectional positioning of the point-machining or during execution of
G60.
I1 < 0: Positioning in minus direction
I1 > 0: Positioning in plus direction
Example:
MPL091
Shift amount
+y
+x

I1
Note:
For the axes which operate in submicrons in the case of submicron
machine specifications, the setting unit of this parameter is reduced to
1/10 times.
Upper (plus direction) user soft-limit
Program type M, E
Conditions After stop of movement
I2
Unit
0.0001 mm/0.00001 inch
(0.0001°)
Setting range 0 to ±99999999
Lower (minus direction) user soft-limit
Program type M, E
Conditions After stop of movement
I3
Unit
0.0001 mm/0.00001 inch
(0.0001°)
Setting range 0 to ±99999999
The parameter used to define the machine working zone in order to
prevent machine interference with the workpiece or jigs. Set the
coordinate values of the machine coordinate system.

If the machine is likely to overstep its working zone, an alarm will occur
and the machine will stop.
Notes:
1. These parameters are valid only when bit 2 of I14 is 0.
2. These parameters are invalid if I2 = I3.
3. For the axes which operate in submicrons in the case of submicron
machine specifications, the setting unit of this parameter is reduced to
1/10 times.
