Abstract
In a numerical controller, alarm mask information is preset. The alarm mask information is compared with alarm factor information generated by any of control circuits, and depending on a comparison result, an alarm is masked so as not to be delivered to a central processing unit. Thus, depending on the type of the alarm factor information, delivery of an alarm to the central processing unit is omitted when processing need not be stopped.
