supplementary information is described as a Note. Read the Warning,
Caution, and Note thoroughly before attempting to use the machine.
WARNING
Applied when there is a danger of the user being
injured or when there is a damage of both the user
being injured and the equipment being damaged if
the approved procedure is not observed.
CAUTION
Applied when there is a danger of the equipment
being damaged, if the approved procedure is not
observed.

B-62714EN/04SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
2 GENERAL WARNINGS AND NOTES
WARNING
1 Before operating the machine, thoroughly check the
entered data.
Operating the machine with incorrect data may
result in the machine behaving unexpectedly,
possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or
machine itself, or injury to the user.
2Never attempt to perform a production run, such as
actually machining a workpiece, without first
checking the operation of the machine. Before
starting the machine for a production run, ensure
that the program command values, offsets, current
position, external signals, and other settings are
suitable for the operation to be performed. Also
check that the machine operates correctly by
performing a trial run using, for example, the single
block, feedrate override, or machine lock function or
by operating the machine with neither a tool nor
workpiece mounted.
3Ensure that the specified feedrate is appropriate for
the intended operation. Generally, for each
machine, there is a maximum allowable feedrate.
The appropriate feedrate varies with the intended
operation. Refer to the manual provided with the
machine to determine the maximum allowable
feedrate.
If a machine is run at other than the correct speed, it
may behave unexpectedly, possibly causing
damage to the workpiece and/or machine itself, or
injury to the user.
4When using a tool compensation function,
thoroughly check the direction and amount of
compensation.
Operating the machine with incorrectly specified
data may result in the machine behaving
unexpectedly, possibly causing damage to the
workpiece and/or machine itself, or injury to the
user.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONSB-62714EN/04
WARNING
5The parameters for the CNC and PMC are factory-
set. Usually, there is not need to change them.
When, however, there is not alternative other than to
change a parameter, ensure that you fully
understand the function of the parameter before
making any change.
Failure to set a parameter correctly may result in the
machine behaving unexpectedly, possibly causing
damage to the workpiece and/or machine itself, or
injury to the user.
6Immediately after switching on the power, do not
touch any of the keys on the MDI panel until the
position display or alarm screen appears on the
CNC unit.
Some of the keys on the MDI panel are dedicated to
maintenance or other special operations. Pressing
any of these keys may place the CNC unit in other
than its normal state. Starting the machine in this
state may cause it to behave unexpectedly.
7The operator's manual and programming manual
supplied with a CNC unit provide an overall
description of the machine's functions, including any
optional functions. Note that the optional functions
will vary from one machine model to another.
Therefore, some functions described in the manuals
may not actually be available for a particular model.
Check the specification of the machine if in doubt.
8Some functions may have been implemented at the
request of the machine-tool builder. When using
such functions, refer to the manual supplied by the
machine-tool builder for details of their use and any
related cautions. Refer to the following two
examples.
<1> Some machines have a tool replacement
device that operates when a tool feature is
executed. When the user is working near the
device, he or she may touch it. Execute tool
features in a place sufficiently away from the
tool replacement device.
<2> Many auxiliary features cause machine
operation such as rotation of the spindle.
Understand the operations of auxiliary features
before using them.

B-62714EN/04SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
NOTE
Command programs, parameters, and variables are
stored in nonvolatile memory in the CNC unit.
Usually, they are retained even if the power is turned
off. Such data may be delated inadvertently,
however, or it may prove necessary to delete all data
from nonvolatile memory as part of error recovery.
To guard against the occurrence of the above, and
assure quick restoration of deleted data, backup all
vital data, and keep the backup copy in a safe place.

II. SPECIFICATIONS
B-62714EN/04SPECIFICATIONS1.I/O LINK-II I/O FUNCTION
1 I/O LINK-II I/O FUNCTION
The I/O Link-II function is a communication function that conforms
to OPCN-1 (formerly called JPCN-1/JEMA net) defined by the Japan
Electrical Manufacturer's Association.
The I/O Link-II function includes a master function and slave
function.
The slave function consists of the following functions:
(1)DI/DO data transfer function
(2)Global I/O transfer function (FANUC unique function)
(3)Capability of turning on and off the power to a slave station at
any time without affecting communications performed by other
devices
NOTE
FANUC I/O Link-II (slave function) uses the following
services of OPCN-1:
(1)Initialization service
(2)Input/output service
(3)Reset service
About the global I/O transfer function:
The figure below shows DI/DO data transfer performed between a
master station and slave stations #1 to #N. Suppose that a slave
station using the global I/O transfer function is a local slave station,
and the other slave stations are remote slave stations. Then, the local
slave station (#2) can receive DO data sent from the master station
and can also receive DO data sent to the master station from the
remote slave stations. So, the local slave station can make a ladder
reference.
Master

Slave station #1
[Remote slave

Slave station #2
[Local slave
station]
NOTE
Slave station #3
[Remote slave
station]
DO data from slave stations #1 to #N (excluding #2)
Slave station #N
[Remote slave
station]
The global I/O transfer function is not a function
defined by OPCN-1 but a FANUC unique function.
This function can be used even when the network
includes products of other manufacturers (even as a
master station). In this case, however, the size of
data that can be transferred is limited.

DI data
Input data when viewed from the local station (master station or slave
station)(Caution)

Output data when viewed from the local station (master station or
slave station)(Caution)
CAUTION
In the OPCN-1 specifications, data input/output is
defined as data input/output viewed from the master
station. Note that the use of the term in this manual
for slave stations is opposite to the definition in the
OPCN-1 specifications.
For communication with devices of other
manufacturers, check the definition of data
input/output.
DI/DO data transfer function
Function for exchanging DI/DO data between the master station and
slave stations of I/O Link-II. This function is implemented by
input/output service of OPCN-1.
Global I/O transfer function
FANUC unique function. When DI/DO data is exchanged between
the master station and multiple slave stations, a slave station receives
DO data sent from the other slave stations to the master station, thus
achieving I/O transfer between the slave stations.

Maximum allowable number of successive communication errors.
When this maximum number is exceeded, a detachment is detected.
