GREAT-150IM-II MANUALS
CHAPTER I PREFACE
GTCNC-150IM-II is one middle grade flush type CNC control system that has been designed by
Chengdu Great Industrial Co., Ltd, aiming specially at milling machine & machining center.
Based on modern computer technology, system move control core & PLC program running technology,
and stable unique real time control engine subsystem RTAI, this system ensures the stabilization of
operation. The use of high performance, low power consumption industrial grade ARM microprocessor
as core of hardware, large scale FPGA integrate circuit, multiple layer (4,6) printed circuit, 32MB flash
memory, 8.4 inch real color LCD which provides friendly human-machine dialogue interface makes this
system work to its best.
DEFINITION OF CAUTION, WARNING, AND NOTE
1. WARNING
Applied when there is a danger of user being injured or user being injured and equipment is damaged.
2. CAUTION
Reminds operator must be caution
damage the equipment.
3. NOTE
in the relative operation, otherwise lead this operation failure or
APPLIED TO INDICATE SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION AND EXPLANATION.
NOTE
This system has function to backup parameters. After debugging machine, it can backup all parameters
of machine & system and PLC documents to computer. It is convenient not only for mass debugging, but
also for machine recovery to normal after changing system. (refer to Chapter 3.6)
NOTE
WHEN USE THIS SYSTEM AT THE FIRST TIME, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY ALL THE DETAILS OF EACH CHAPTER SO AS TO MAKE IT WORK MORE EFFICIENTLY.

1. Set two or more axes soft limit function is invalid, just add the corresponding axes parameter value. i.e.
set X and Z axes soft limit function is invalid, the parameter is set to be 20(4+16).
2. This parameter setting depends on user’s need, normally we suggest this value set to be valid, to
prevent equipment is damaged from excess of stroke. Please attention, to realize soft limit function,
besides set this parameter, you have to set the each axis’ limit stroke in the “USER” parameter.

tighten/release tool is not related to spindle rotation; as this parameter set to be 1 means that spindle
tighten/release tool is interlocked with spindle rotation, that means spindle can be rotated only in the
status of tool tightened.
This parameter setting is related to machine tools configuration and user applied request, for the sake of
safety, strongly recommend set this parameter to be 1 and make it interlock.

Set to be 0 is remind mode: there is a dialogue box remind operator to execute reference returning
after system booting every time, there is no limit after then.
Set to be 8 is force mode: there is a dialogue box reminds operator to execute reference returning
every time after system booting and run system, system will reminds “feed axes have not returned to
reference” and won’t execute program if not execute reference returning before running in the “AUTO”
mode.

NO.27 max speed as rapid stop feed axis, unit: mm/min
Set the stop mode limit in running. No deceleration as the speed is higher than this parameter value,
otherwise these is deceleration as the speed is lower than this parameter value.
As one axis running speed is higher than this parameter value, system will stop the current running axis
directly if meets E-top or other failure (i.e.: limit), that means the speed of current axis will become zero
from current value directly (pay attention: now the machine zero will be lost, demand returning reference
point again); contrarily, as axis running speed is lower than this parameter value, system will control
running axis’ speed decelerated to zero according to normal.

Mainly used for increasing coherence as multi-axes continuous track interpolation.
For example: as this value is 200 and X-axis speed changed from F1000 to F2000 in multi-axes
continuous track interpolation, the change process is Z-axis speed is changed from F1000 to 12000 at

preview and pre-treatment to the speed, to get the smooth transition speed in reverse or corner, to
increase surface finish of workpiece.

3.4.3 Coordinate system

The coordinate system in this parameter is work coordinate system and one machine coordinate
systemG53. The coordinate system applied for machining is named as work coordinate system and preset
by CNC. One or more work coordinate systems are allowed in one work program, the work coordinate
system can be changed by moving its zero point. That means, the coordinates value is the coordinates of
its own zero point in the machine coordinate system.
It’s allowable to set 6 work coordinates from G54 to G59, can modify the coordinates value of zero point of
6 work coordinate systems in the machine coordinate system.
amend their zero point value standing on the machine. refer to Fig3.12

Press “”, “”softkey to select the work coordinate system which you want to modify, then press ”Enter” and
input the value into the dialogue box.
The six work coordinate systems can be set by users and calling by G54, G55, G56, G57, G58, G59.
NOTE
1. the machine coordinate system G53 in this parameter, is established according to the machine
reference point, can modify the offset of machine coordinate system G53 from original status, can be
applied to adjust tool setting error. If want to return to original status, only set the offset of G53 to be 0.
this offset is cleared after system reboot or return to zero; all the work coordinates will offset
correspondingly after this parameter is set.
2. generally, work coordinate system is established in the manual mode at first time and modify it under
“PARAM” menu if some offset when machining. For example: tool moves to certain point and select
corresponding coordinate system, and input your intent value, system will automatically calculate the
coordinates value of original point of current coordinate system in the machine coordinate system,
and save in the parameter. If there is deviation after machining, modify the coordinate value of
corresponding coordinate system in “PARAM”
