Introduction
The Graphic Input Interface (GII) is the new function of SynTec 900ME series. This product is designed to edit CNC G-Code program easily. GII is very user friendly and builds in on-line-help that makes the development of CNC program more quickly. Beside these attributes, GII also has built-in Macro Programs, which are very useful to lots of machining procedures. Even first time user can be guided by GII to enter complex arguments correctly without memory any means of arguments. The Figure 1-1 shows the organization chart of GII that describes the relations of options and functions in GII. The shadow square is the main options in GII menu, which includes functions in it. The white square with arc angles means direct input without dialogic box. The black square with arc angles means input arguments with dialogic box. Please refer to Chapter 3 and 4 for more detail information. This user guide is organized as followsChapter 1 Introduction, describes the main purposes and functions of GII; Chapter 2 GII Operation Flow, use a rapid position as a example to teach user how to use GII; Chapter 3 Basic Machining Functions, includes Rapid Position, Linear Interpolation, Arc Interpolation and cutter setting. Chapter 4 Cycling Machining Functions includes Drilling, Tapping, Facing, and Pocketing and Pattern Positioning.

Edit GII Program
Modify a line When input is wrong or the program is needed to correct, the editing program is necessary. User can modify the program in text or GII mode. In text-mode move the cursor to the instruction, press Enter, then the corresponding dialogic window will appear. In this window, using Up/Down arrow keys move the cursor to the arguments and enter correct data. If an incorrect data is entered, using Up/Down arrow keys move the cursor to the argument and enter it again. Press F1 to finish the procedures of modifying data. We use the same example of Rapid Position in section 2.1.2 to demonstrate modifying procedures. In this example, we change the coordinates of end point from (100.0, 200.0, 300.0) to (100.0, 100.0, 100.0). The steps are as follows Operating Procedures 1. move the cursor to the instruction (G00) and press Enter. 2. The corresponded dialogic window and the values of arguments will appear. 3. In this window, using Up/Down arrow keys move the cursor to arguments and enter correct data. 4. If the parameter is at next page, using PageUp and PageDown to change the pages and enter the correct data. 5. Press F1 to confirm input.

When you select it, the dialogic window will be shown as Figure 4-78 and Figure 4-79. Press PageUp/PageDown to switch the input display in Page 1and Page 2. Page 1 Data Input 1.Starting point (X) : Coordinates X of the starting point. 2.Starting point (Y) : Coordinates Y of the starting point. 3.Horizontal pitch (I)Horizontal positioning pitch. 4.Number of horizontal holes (N)Number of machining positions along horizontal side of the rectangle. 5.Vertical pitch (J)Vertical positioning pitch. 6.Number of vertical holes (K)Number of machining positions along vertical side of the rectangle.

7.Depth of the hole (Z) : The depth of surface to the holes bottom. 8.Initial point to R (R)Distance from the initial level to point R level. 9.Dwell time (P)Dwell time at the bottom of the hole 10. Each cutting feed (Q)Depth of cut for each cutting feed. 11. Retraction (d)Each retraction feed in the direction of X 0: Return to initial point R (commonly drilling). 1:Back to the fixed distance which is decided by parameter 4002 12. Machining Method (T) : 0=Drilling ,1=Tapping ,2=Boring 13. Feedrate (F)Cutting feedrate. 14. Spindle Speed (S) : The rotation speed of the spindle (r.p.m.). Note 1. When the arguments in page 2 has been set up, the machining method is G137.1. After machining is finished, it will cancel G137.1 drilling mode (G80). 2. When the arguments in page 2 has not been set up, G137.1 and G137 are the same. The drilling mode is determined by the last machining. Grid Pattern positioning (G137) Machining Procedures: 1. The drilling mode (G70, G89) is decided by page 2 2. No matter where the tool is, the tool moves horizontally to the position of first pattern. 3. Drills the hole and moves to the next pattern positioning (Pitch I). 4. Repeat the drilling method. 5. Repeat 3~4 until drills N holes 6. Move to the next vertical positioning (Pitch J) 7. Repeat 3~6 until finish the last one.
Example Table 4-26 shows the example specification of Grid Pattern Positioning. The specific graph is shown in Figure 4-80. The starting point of the tool is assigned to (0,0,0).

Operating Procedures 1.Press F3 to active Graphic Input Interface. Press F1 to open Input CYCLE menu. Use Up/Down arrow keys to select Pattern Positioning and then select Grid Pattern Positioning (G137). The dialogic window is displayed on the screen as Figure 4-78 and Figure 4-79. 2.In this window, using Up/Down arrow keys moves the cursor to arguments and enters specific data. If an incorrect data is entered, using Up/Down arrow keys move the cursor to the argument and enter it again. According to the specific data, enter the values one by one. a. Starting point (X) 0.0 b. Starting point (Y) 0.0 c. Horizontal pitch (I) 4.0 d. Horizontal holes (N) 5 e. Vertical pitch (J) 4.0 f. Vertical holes (K) 4
