Acu-Rite CNC 3500i user manual 215

Field	Code	Description
DistDown	E	The incremental distance from the current Z
		Retract amount to go down along the side
		of the probe stylus when doing a diameter
		pick. The maximum E value is 0.55" (13.97
		mm) or the tool may crash into the probe or
		table. If you enter a value larger than 0.55"
		(13.97 mm), the control issues an error
		message. If E is not set, the cycle uses a
		default value of 0.1" (2.54 mm). (Optional)
		[Default: 0.1"]
		Ball nose cutters and special cutters that
		require a move down more than 0.55"
		(13.97 mm) are not supported.
		Z Retract Amount is set in the Tool Probe
		Parameters.
Update	U	If this is undefined or set to 0, the G154
		cycle does not update the diameter or
		length wear register each time it checks a
		tool. If set to one, the cycle updates the
		wear registers. In both cases, the control
		alarms when the maximum limit set in K or
		J has been exceeded. (Optional)
ToolLife	Q	Select Yes or No if the Tool Life has been
		entered into the Tool Table for the tool in
		use.
OvrMed	M	This is the override for the medium feedrate
Feed		that was set in the machine setup
		parameter ZFirstPickFeedRate_Medium.
		Sometimes there may be a tool that has a
		large diameter making it necessary to slow
		it down to prevent the touch probe from
		being hit too hard. This can only be set
		slower. Trying to set this higher will result in
		the software using the original feedrate.
		(Optional)
