<h1>LOAD ADJUST</h1>

<p CLASS=Paragraph>The Adjust option allows you to specify the adjust code 
 parameters. You can now specify the output mode for On (or a Number), 
 Off, and whether to output the code with Z motion.</p>

<p CLASS=Paragraph>&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Adjust Code for &quot;On&quot; or &quot;N&quot;</h2>

<p CLASS=Paragraph>The three basic types of output modes for Adjust On 
 codes are:</p>

<ul>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p CLASS=ListBullet><span style="font-weight: bold;">Offset 
 Register Only</span> - this is the most common.</p></li>
</ul>

<p CLASS=ListBulletTxt
	style="margin-left: 40px;">You can define the format of the Word Address 
 Character for the adjust code.</p>

<p CLASS=ListBulletTxt
	style="margin-left: 40px;">You also can specify:</p>

<p CLASS=ListBulletTxt
	style="margin-left: 80px;">Whether the tool code is combined with the 
 adjust code.</p>

<p CLASS=ListBulletTxt
	style="margin-left: 80px;">Whether the tool code or the adjust code 
 comes first in the combined code.</p>

<p CLASS=ListBulletTxt
	style="margin-left: 80px;">The minimum and maximum values for the adjust 
 code.</p>

<ul>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p CLASS=ListBullet><span style="font-weight: bold;">G 
 Code Only</span> allows you to specify the validity and values for; <span 
 style="font-weight: bold;">G Code For Adjust Off, G Code For Adjust Plus, 
 G Code For Adjust Minus</span>, and <span style="font-weight: bold;">G 
 Code For Adjust On.</span></p></li>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p CLASS=ListBullet><span style="font-weight: bold;">Offset 
 Register And G Code </span>- used by Fanuc controls. This allows you all 
 the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Offset Register Only</span> options 
 <span style="font-style: italic;">and</span> the <span style="font-weight: bold;">G 
 Code Only</span> options.</p></li>
</ul>

<p CLASS=Paragraph>&nbsp;</p>

<h2>G Code Adjust Off</h2>

<p CLASS=Paragraph>The three basic types of output modes for Adjust Off 
 codes are:</p>

<ul>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p CLASS=ListBullet><span style="font-weight: bold;">Offset 
 Register Only</span> - this is the most common. You must specify the value 
 of the offset register to cancel tool length compensation.</p></li>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p CLASS=ListBullet><span style="font-weight: bold;">G 
 Code Only</span> allows you to specify the G Code for Adjust Off.</p></li>
	
	<li class=kadov-P-CListBullet><p CLASS=ListBullet><span style="font-weight: bold;">Offset 
 Register And G Code</span> - used by Fanuc controls. This allows you all 
 the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Offset Register Only</span> options 
 <span style="font-style: italic;">and</span> the <span style="font-weight: bold;">G 
 Code Only</span> options for Adjust Off.</p></li>
</ul>

<p CLASS=Paragraph>&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Should Adjust Be Held for Z Motion</h2>

<p CLASS=Paragraph>This option allows you to specify whether or not the 
 adjust code output should be suppressed until the next Z motion.</p>

<h1>&nbsp;</h1>

<h1><a NAME=load_holders></a>LOAD HOLDERS</h1>

<h2>Use of Right Angles</h2>

<p CLASS=Paragraph>The Holders option allows you to specify the parameters 
 for right angle holders.</p>

<p CLASS=Paragraph>When you select Holders, you can select and define up 
 to six right angle tool holders.</p>

<p CLASS=ListBulletTxt><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Holder 
 #1 -</span></span></p>

<p CLASS=ListBulletTxt><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Holder

 #5 -</span></span></p>

<p CLASS=ListBulletTxt><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Holder 
 #6 -</span></span></p>

<p CLASS=Paragraph>Selecting any of the above holders displays the following 
 menu options allowing you to set the parameters for that particular right 
 angle tool holder.</p>

<p CLASS=Paragraph>&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Tool Holder Alignment</h2>

<p CLASS=Paragraph><span style="font-weight: bold;">Holder Aligned In - 
 </span>allows you to specify the orientation of the tool holder in relation 
 to the coordinate system axes.</p>

<p CLASS=ListBulletTxt><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Positive

<p CLASS=Paragraph>&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Gage Point Offset</h2>

<p CLASS=Paragraph><span style="font-weight: bold;">Holder Gage Point Delta 
 X Distance - </span>allows you to specify the offset distance of the tool 
 holder gage point in the X direction. The distance is measured from the 
 head gage line back to the machine spindle (i.e. if the tool axis is -1,0,0 
 the distance would be a negative value).</p>

<p CLASS=Paragraph><span style="font-weight: bold;">Holder Gage Point Delta 
 Y Distance - </span>allows you to specify the offset distance of the tool 
 holder gage point in the Y direction. The distance is measured from the 
 head gage line back to the machine spindle.</p>

<p CLASS=Paragraph><span style="font-weight: bold;">Holder Gage Point Delta 
 Z Distance - </span>allows you to specify the offset distance of the tool 
 holder gage point in the Z direction. The distance is measured from the 
 head gage line back to the machine spindle.</p>

<h2>Specifying the Code for the Tool Holder</h2>

<p CLASS=Paragraph><span style="font-weight: bold;">Code For Holder - </span>This 
 option prompts you to specify whether or not a code is required for the

<p CLASS=ListBulletTxt><span style="font-weight: bold;">Yes - </span>If 
 you select <span style="font-weight: bold;">Yes</span>, The following 
 menu is displayed allowing you to specify the information pertaining to
