A parameter setting device sets parameters for driving a machine in which a numerical controller is incorporated. The parameter setting device uses a machine configuration file in which information is described pertaining to the configuration of the machine. Furthermore, the parameter setting device is equipped with a parameter generating unit for generating parameters based on the machine configuration file, and a parameter setting unit for setting the generated parameters in the numerical controller.

Parameter setting device and parameter setting method

A numerical controller carries out acceleration/deceleration control over an interpolation pulse produced based on command blocks. This numerical controller exercises acceleration/deceleration control processing over the interpolation pulse based on an acceleration/deceleration setting which corresponds to the command blocks, and outputs a first speed pulse. The numerical controller exercises acceleration/deceleration control processing over the first speed pulse such that command blocks overlap each other, based on an overlapping shared acceleration/deceleration setting which does not depended on the command blocks, and outputs a second speed pulse.
