I have some questions about Fanuc look ahead. For reference I have a 0iMD control.
As I understand it there are a few different levels of look ahead which may be factory installed depending on what the machine tool builder has spec'ed out.
Using parameter 1604 one can turn on AICC so that the control is always looking ahead during milling moves (this is G05.1). Is there a reason not to leave this turned on all the time? (when enabled AICC flashes in the lower right corner of the display so I assume it is working)
Looking at some other information G05.1 is further modified by an R (or Q?) value which specifies defaulting toward speed or accuracy. If parameter 1604 is modified such that G05.1 is always on during feed what is its default R (or Q?) value? How does one modify the R (or Q?) value in this scenario?
