Abstract: An object is to provide a numerical control system of an industrial machine which can suitably add overrides for “each program” or “each of the individual steps within the program” and to thereby prevent a decrease in the quality of a machined surface and the occurrence of a defective part caused only by the fact that an operator desires to change overrides. An override function unit includes: an override specification operation unit for specifying an override; an override restriction command program which is incorporated in a program of a numerical controller (CNC) either according to the operation of the override specification operation unit or previously; an override value determination unit which determines an override value based on the override restriction command program; and an automatic operation execution unit for automatically operating the industrial machine based on an override restriction range determined in the override value determination unit.

Abstract: Provided is a technique that makes it possible to obtain positional information for determining a print position depending on the type of print medium. A determining unit determines a process for obtaining information on the position of the print medium by using a detecting unit, depending on the type of the print medium. An obtaining unit obtains the information on the position of the print medium by changing the relative position of the detecting unit with respect to the holding unit holding the print medium, based on the process determined by the determining unit. Then, a setting unit determines a print position for the print medium based on the information on the position of the print medium.
