<h1 style="background-image: url('../paper.gif');">Limitations of Turbo 
 Output</h1>

<p class=Paragraph>When using turbo mode, your postprocessor has the following 
 limitations:</p>

<ul style="list-style: disc;"
	type=disc>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>The block template 
 defined for turbo output should not contain tcl mom variables.</p></li>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>The linear, circular 
 and rapid block templates are output in turbo mode. Other block templates 
 (such as cycles, helix) are output in regular mode.</p></li>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>Work plane changes 
 for rapid moves are not considered in turbo mode. If you need these, you 
 must be sure they are created in the tool path. </p></li>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>You can't change 
 the turbo block template name and block template element syntax.</p></li>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>You can't use turbo 
 output mode in the following postprocessing situations.</p></li>
	
	<ul style="list-style: disc;"
		type=disc>
		
		<li class=kadov-p-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>Lathe or Turn 
 </p></li>
		
		<li class=kadov-p-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>Wedm </p></li>
		
		<li class=kadov-p-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>Four and five 
 axis postprocessing.</p></li>
		
		<li class=kadov-p-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>Mill-Turn </p></li>
	</ul>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>The Tcl event handler 
 &quot;MOM_before_motion&quot; is ignored. </p></li>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>Linearized motions 
 are output in regular mode.</p></li>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>The procedures for 
 linear move, circular move, and rapid move will not be executed. Instead 
 the system will execute only the corresponding turbo block templates. 
 The turbo mode will ignore the following cases.</p></li>
</ul>

<p class=ListBulletTxt>In linear, circular and rapid moves:</p>

<ul style="list-style: disc;"
	type=disc>
	
	<ul style="list-style: disc;"
		type=disc>
		
		<li class=kadov-p-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>Any custom commands.</p></li>
		
		<li class=kadov-p-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>Any operator 
 messages </p></li>
		
		<li class=kadov-p-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>The addition 
 of any new WORD which uses expressions different from the turbo variables 
 (defined in the Table 1)</p></li>
		
		<li class=kadov-p-CListBullet><p class=ListBullet>FEEDRATE_SET</p></li>
	</ul>
</ul>

<ol start=9
	style="list-style: decimal;"
	type=1>
	
	<li class=kadov-p><p>In turbo mode the review tool will show only non 
 motion events.</p></li>
