I

Include Offset Z in Tool Zero Cal

—indicates whether or not the Offset Z value in Part Setup is added to the zero calibration value when tool lengths are adjusted.
Default is Yes.

  • Yes—Zero Calibration is adjusted by the Offset Z value.

  • No—Zero Calibration is the distance from machine home to the tool tip when positioned at the workpiece or gauge block.

Increment

—the amount to increment for each new serial number. This field appears only when User-provided Data Origin is selected. Default is 1.

Index Pulses

the number of positioning movements that the indexer head will make when rotating through an operation. It is used only when indexer equipment is attached to the machine. A new Position block must be put into the part program each time the part needs to move to a new indexer position.

Individual Profiles

—allows different profile contours to be used for individual segments of the Draw Along contour in Swept Surface.

Inspection Cycle

—the type of cycle to be inspected.

Intelligent ASR Triggers

  1. Conditions that turn ON automatic ASR buffering in NC:

    1. M128 is called.

    2. Tool Change—when a tool change occurs while a Transform Plane is active.

    3. Transform Plane begins.

    4. Rapid Move—when a rapid move includes an angle (A, B, C) or tool vector change (I, J, K).

    5. NC Merge starts.

  2. Conditions that turn OFF automatic ASR buffering:

    1. Program End

    2. Integrator M-code

    3. NC Merge End

Intelligent Automatic Safe Repositioning

—turns automatic buffering on and off. Default is On.

Interrupt Cycle Z Retract

retracts the Z axis to Retract Clearance when you press the Interrupt Cycle console button on a Hurco control.

  • Select No to keep the spindle in its current position when the button is pressed.

  • The default is Yes.

Interrupt Cycle during tapping:

  • When Interrupt Cycle button is pressed and this parameter has been set to NO, the spindle moves out of hole and stops; when set to Yes, the spindle moves out of hole and retracts along tool axis to Retract Clearance.

  • When interrupt happens during tapping into hole, tool retracts at 100% spindle override and retract override. After resuming, tapping will repeat the interrupted process.

  • When interrupt happens during tapping out of hole, it remains at the fast retract feedrate. After resume, tapping will not repeat the interrupted process since it is already done.

IV Angle

—rotary-axis coordinate (angle) relative to Part Zero A or Part Zero C, depending on the configuration of your machine. In Rotary Position block, specify order using drop-down list.
