Rules for PROG_EVENT
PROG_EVENT.SPF is a standard cycle and cannot be changed (not accessible).
● Storage of a PROG_EVENT.SPF cycle that you have written under manufacturer or user
cycles is not switched active.
● Manufacturer-specific "prog_events" must be reproduced by the following cycles, which,
when available, are automatically called by the PROG_EVENT.
– CYCPE_MA.SPF is called at the end of the internal PROG_EVENT.SPF.
Note: CYCPE_MA.SPF should preferably be used.
– CYCPE1MA.SPF is called at the beginning of the internal PROG_EVENT.SPF.
● Block search:
Default setting: The correction of tool change, spindle direction of rotation / speed, swivel
axes is performed by the internal PROG_EVENT, the necessary machine data is
appropriately preset. The manufacturer does not have to use a CYCPE_MA.SPF for the
actions described above.
Special features of the block search in conjunction with PROG_EVENT:
