Abstract
A numerical controller acquires state information (machine condition) such as the current temperature of a drive unit to determine whether a machining operation based on a machining program can be started or not by comparing the state information with a machine condition history recorded in a recording unit. If determined that the machining operation can be started, a machining operation start command is output and if determined that the machining operation cannot be started, the machine condition is monitored to withhold outputting of the machining operation start command until the machine condition allowing to start the machining operation based on the machining program appears.
