Sub-Category Name Description Comments
Machine Data LCM_DataDir Data Directory where the CSV data files are stored
These are used for calculations.
Post LCM_MaxSpacing Maximum Spacing between Center of Notches threshold used in calculations
Post LCM_SafeStartLine Safe Start Line

The safe start block(s) used in generated G code files.

machine-specific

Post LCM_TrimLength X length to trim to square leading end of material amount of material to remove when trimming the leading edge (to make all material flush)
Post LCM_ProbeFeedRate Feed rate for probe moves  
Post LCM_DrillFeedRate Feed rate for drill moves  
Post LCM_DrillRPM RPM for drilling  
Post LCM_PusherFeedRate Feed rate for pusher moves  
Post LCM_FeedDirection Direction the machine feeds  
Post LCM_SawCutFeedrate Feed rate for saw cuts  
Post LCM_SawSpindleSpeed Spindle Speed for Saw Cuts (RPM)  
Post LCM_DoorPivotMatchesFeedDir Door pivot type matching feed direction compare with LCM_FeedDirection; This affects how the doors are oriented.
Wizard LCM_JobList_ShowWorkspace Show Workspace in Job List For machines with work spaces, show the workspace in the job list
Wizard LCM_EnableWorkspaces Enable Workspaces whether or not the machine has multiple "work spaces" for shaped bars (non AG-10) vs. rectangular bars (AG-10)
Probe LCM_ProbeOffset Distance from X0 to the probe trigger position When the probe strikes, the X fixture offset is changed. This distance is used in that calculation.
Drill LCM_PerformDrillOperations Perform drill operations whether or not the machine has (or performs) drilling
Drill LCM_DrillOffset Distance from saw blade center to the center of the drill bit used to calculate where to move the material to in order to perform a drill operation
Drill LCM_DrillClearanceZ Z position for the drill to avoid any material clearance position for the drill
Drill LCM_DrillDepthClearance Distance past the material to drill To ensure that the final hole(s) are completely drilled, this amount is commanded in addition to the position of the last bar for a drill operation.
Saw LCM_SawClearanceY Y position for the saw to avoid any material (G53) clearance position for the saw
Saw LCM_SawCutoffY Y Amount Added to Height for a cut-off additional height to command the saw when performing a cut-off operation (as opposed to cutting notches)
Saw LCM_SawKerfWidth Saw Kerf Width the actual width of the saw kerf—not just the blade width
Saw LCM_SawDiameter Saw Diameter Used to calculate saw Y position to get precise notch depth
Saw LCM_SawXPosition Saw Position (machine coordinates) the X position of the unfinished edge of the saw blade
Pusher LCM_PusherMinimumX Minimum X position to command the pusher the closest (smallest) X position the pusher/feeder should be commanded to
Pusher LCM_PusherLoadOffset Pusher Load Offset From Saw  
Pusher LCM_PusherRetractPosition Pusher Retract Position (machine coordinates)  
Shapes LCM_ShapesClampsSpace Distance Between Shapes Clamps (W)  
Shapes LCM_ShapesSawCutWEnd W Start Position for Shapes Saw Cut  
Bundles LCM_BundlesSawCutWEnd W End Position for Bundles Saw Cut  
Workspace LCM_EngageTableClampsInJob Enable the Table Clamps/Supports in a Job  
Signals LCM_WorkspaceShapesOutput Signal to Enable Shapes Supports  
Signals LCM_ForceTableClampDisengage Signal to Force Clamp Disengage  
Signals LCM_TriggerAutoEngageOutput Signal to Trigger an Automatic Clamp Engage  
Signals LCM_TableClampsStateOutput Signal represeting the Table Clamps State  
Options LCM_HasOutfeedClamps Machine has outfeed clamps whether or not the machine has outfeed clamps
The G code and user commands needs to know if they exist in order to [dis]engage them.
