30 – 574 HEIDENHAIN Service Manual iTNC 530
Input format MP values can be shown in different formats:
Decimal:
There is no identifier before the value.
Example: MP 910.0 : +1000 ; traverse range
Binary:
The identifier % stands before the value.
The binary input is recommended for machine parameters for a bit-encoded activation of
individual functions.
Example: MP 10 : %00000000011111 ; active axes
Hexadecimal:
The identifier $ stands before the value.
The hexadecimal input is suitable, e.g., to show great numerical values.
Example: MP 7350 : $0808080 ; color mixture in red-green-blue for the window frame
For MP1054.x (linear distance of one motor revolution) and MP7530.x (type of dimension for
transformation) also a formula may be indicated instead of a fixed value.
