2.SETTING PARAMETERS FROM MDI

[Example] 12000 [INPUT]

Data can be entered continuously for parameters, starting at the selected parameter, by separating each data item with a semicolon (;).

[Example] Entering 10;20;30;40 and pressing the INPUT key assigns values 10, 20, 30, and 40 to parameters in order starting at the parameter indicated by the cursor.

6Repeat steps (4) and (5) as required.

7If parameter setting is complete, set "PARAMETER WRITE=" to 0 on the setting screen to disable further parameter setting.

8Reset the NC to release the alarm condition (SW0100).

If an alarm condition (PW0000 PLEASE TURN OFF POWER) occurs in the NC, turn it off before continuing operation.

3.3 I/O FORMATS

This section describes the I/O formats of parameters.

Parameters are classified by data format as follows:

Data format	Remarks
Bit	Data of these formats is
Bit machine group	represented by an 8-digit binary
Bit path	number, with each digit
Bit axis	corresponding to a bit.
Bit spindle
Byte
Byte machine group
Byte path
Byte axis
Byte spindle
Word
Word machine group
Word path
Word axis	The setting range of data varies
Word spindle	from one parameter to another.
2-word	For details, refer to the
2-word machine group	description of each parameter.
2-word path
2-word axis
2-word spindle
Real
Real machine group
Real path
Real axis

3.3.1 Keywords

The alphabetic characters listed below are used as keywords.

A numeric value after each keyword has the following meaning:

Keyword	Meaning of a numeric value that follows
N	Parameter number
Q	Data identifier (1: Parameter data, 0: Pitch error compensation
	data)
	Machine group number (1 and up) of a machine group type
	parameter
	Path number (1 and up) of a path type parameter
A	Controlled axis number (1 and up) of an axis type parameter
S	Spindle number (1 and up) of a spindle type parameter
P	Value of a parameter independent of inch/metric switching
M	Metric input value of a parameter dependent on inch/metric
	switching
I	Inch input value of a parameter dependent on inch/metric switching

- 7 -

3.INPUTTING AND OUTPUTTING PARAMETERS THROUGH THE READER/PUNCHER INTERFACE B-63950EN/02

3.3.2 Inch/Metric Switching

For parameters dependent on inch/metric switching such as those for length and feedrate, whether data is inch data or metric data is specified by the input mode in the case of input from the MDI panel, or by the keyword I or M prefixed to the data in the case of input from an external I/O device. The keyword I or M is added also when data is output from an external I/O device.

If the input mode or keyword differs from the actually used mode as in a case where data input in the inch mode is used in the metric mode, the CNC performs automatic data conversion. So, data need not be converted according to a mode change. Moreover, when parameter data is displayed, the data is converted according to the display mode. However, when data is output from an external I/O device, the original data is output according to the original keyword.

3.3.3

A numeric value after N represents a parameter number. Q1 indicates that the data is parameter data.

A numeric value after A represents a controlled axis number (1 and up).

An 8-digit binary number after P represents the bit values (0/1) of a parameter for each controlled axis, with the first digit corresponding to bit 0 and the eighth digit corresponding to bit 7.

Leading zeros may not be omitted.

A semicolon (;) marks the end of a block. (LF is used for the ISO code, and CR is used for the EIA code.)
