4 Programming
4.6 Entering Miscellaneous Functions and STOP
TNC 360
The M functions (M for miscellaneous) affect:
• Program run
• Machine functions
• Tool behavior
On the inside back cover of this manual you will find a list of M functions
that are predetermined for the TNC. The list indicates whether an M
function begins at the start or at the end of the block in which it is programmed.
You can program several M functions in one NC block as long as they are
independent of each other. The M function list on the inside back cover of
this manual shows the different groups of M functions.
Some M functions are not effective on certain machines. The machine tool builder may also add some of his own
M functions.
A program run or test run is interrupted when it reaches an NC block
containing the function G38.
If you wish to interrupt the program run or test run for a certain duration,
use the cycle G04: DWELL TIME (see page 8-38).
