Remarks

CYCLE800 is used for 5-axis machining to define tilted working planes. The MODE parameter controls how angles A, B, C are interpreted.

Properties

A

First rotation angle in degrees. Interpretation depends on MODE:

  • Solid angle mode: Rotation about Z axis in XY plane
  • Axial mode: Rotation of first rotary axis (typically A)
public double A { get; set; }

Property Value

double

AxisForA

Gets the rotation axis for parameter A from bits 1-0. 01=X, 10=Y, 11=Z (00 is invalid/not used)

public int AxisForA { get; }

Property Value

int

AxisForB

Gets the rotation axis for parameter B from bits 3-2. 01=X, 10=Y, 11=Z (00 is invalid/not used)

public int AxisForB { get; }

Property Value

int

AxisForC

Gets the rotation axis for parameter C from bits 5-4. 01=X, 10=Y, 11=Z (00 is invalid/not used)

public int AxisForC { get; }

Property Value

int

B

Second rotation angle in degrees. Interpretation depends on MODE:

  • Solid angle mode: Rotation about Y axis in space
  • Axial mode: Rotation of second rotary axis (typically B)
public double B { get; set; }

Property Value

double

C

Third rotation angle in degrees. Interpretation depends on MODE:

  • Axial mode: Rotation of third rotary axis (typically C)
public double C { get; set; }

Property Value

double

DIR

Direction of rotation for positioning the rotary axes.

public int DIR { get; set; }

Property Value

int

FR

Retract mode. Values: 0: No retraction 1: Retract Z axis (default) 2: Retract Z, X, Y axes 4: Maximum retraction in tool direction 5: Incremental retraction in tool direction

public int FR { get; set; }

Property Value

int

FR_I

Value of incremental retraction in tool direction.

public double FR_I { get; set; }

Property Value

double

IsAxisByAxisMode

Gets whether this is Axis by Axis mode (bits 7-6 = 00).

public bool IsAxisByAxisMode { get; }

Property Value

bool

IsDirectRotaryAxisMode

Gets whether this is Direct Rotary Axis mode (bits 7-6 = 11).

public bool IsDirectRotaryAxisMode { get; }

Property Value

bool

IsProjectionAngleMode

Gets whether this is Projection Angle mode (bits 7-6 = 10).

public bool IsProjectionAngleMode { get; }

Property Value

bool

IsSolidAngleMode

Gets whether this is Solid Angle mode (bits 7-6 = 01).

public bool IsSolidAngleMode { get; }

Property Value

bool

MODE

Swivel mode - controls angle interpretation. Binary coded decimal parameter: Bit 0 (1): 0=new, 1=additive Bit 1 (2): Reserved Bit 2 (4): Reserved
Bit 3 (8): 0=solid angles (Euler), 1=RPY angles Bit 4 (16): 0=direct, 1=indirect Bit 5 (32): 0=XYZ rotation sequence, 1=ZYX rotation sequence Bit 6 (64): 0=angle refers to rotary axis, 1=angle refers to workpiece

public int MODE { get; set; }

Property Value

int

ST

Swivel plane mode. UNITS DIGIT: 0: New (absolute) 1: Additive (relative to current)

public int ST { get; set; }

Property Value

int

SwivelModeType

Gets the swivel mode type from bits 7-6. 00 = Axis by Axis, 01 = Solid Angle, 10 = Projection Angle, 11 = Direct Rotary Axis

public int SwivelModeType { get; }

Property Value

int

TC

Name of swivel data record. “0” = Deselection of data record (cancels swivel)

public string TC { get; set; }

Property Value

string

XYZ0

Reference point prior to rotation (absolute coordinates).
