III. Safety suggestions for programming
1) Setting a coordinate system
Incorrect coordinate system may cause the machine not to work as expected even if the
program is correct, which may injure the operator, and damage the machine as well as its
tool and workpiece.
2) Rapid traverse (positioning)
When G00 rapid traverse performs the positioning (nonlinear motion to position between
its starting point and end point), make sure that the path for the tool is safe before
programming. The positioning is to perform the rapid traverse, and when the tool and the
workpiece are interfered, the tool, the machine and the workpiece may be damaged, and
even the operator injured.

IV. Notes and Safety Suggestions for Operating Machine
1) Before parts processing
Test the machine without workpiece or tools. Make sure that the machine runs well before it
starts to work.
2) Before operating the machine
Check the input data of the system carefully before operating the machine. Incorrect input
data may cause the machine to work improperly, and damage the workpiece and the tool,
as well as injure the operator.
3) Adaptations between appointed federate and machine operations
Make sure that the input feedrate of the system is suitable for the expected operation.
Feedrate has a maximum for each machine, and the amount of the feed rate is subject to
change with operation. Choose the maximum according to the instructions of the machine.
Improper feedrate leads the machine to work wrongly, and damage the workpiece and the
tool, as well as injure the operator.
4) Compensation function
When offset is needed, check the direction and the amount of the compensation.
Improper compensation causes the machine to work wrongly, and damage the workpiece
and the tool, as well as injure the operator.
5) Manual operation
If the machine is to run in JOG working mode, check the current position of the tool and the
workpiece, and correctly specify the moving axis, moving direction and the feedrate. MPG
(Hand wheel) control with great override, such as 100%, rotate MPG (used to call electric
hand wheel), then the tools and workbench will move fast, which may lead the stop of the
MPG. However, the tools and workbench will not stop immediately. The high override of
MPG movement may damage the machine and its tool, even injure the operator.
6) MPG returns to the reference point
If the tool is return to the reference point, make sure that the machine has been equipped
with the device to detect the reference point; otherwise, the tool cannot reach the reference

【Note】
1) The system should be checked itself and initialized when it is turned on at first (it is
completed by the machine manufacturer, and the operator cannot execute the operation,
otherwise, the parameter set by the machine manufacture will lose).
2) Operations related to turn off the machine power supply are referred to the operator manual
machine manufacturer.
4.1.3 System, program initial and modal
4.1.3.1 the initial state and modal of the system
The initial mode of the system is defined to be a special initial state of all functions set by itself when
the system is turned on; all auxiliary functions do not execute the actual output.
The modal of the system is defined to be their kept states after the system executes all functions.
Initial mode and modal of the system:
4.1.3.2 Initial mode and modal of program
The initial mode is the automatic initialization setting state before the system executes the machining
program; i.e. the initial default state of the default programming word and speed word.
Program initialization state of the system:
G command:G00, G97, G98;
Cutting speed:30mm/min;
Miscellaneous function: current state;
System coordinates: current coordinates are those of the last automatic executing
program or manual operation
G modal is always valid till it is changed by other modal commands in the same group after the
word is set. After the modal meaning is set, the G command may not be input again when the
GSK96 Multi-function Position Control System User Manual
10
same function is used in the later block.
There are three groups of G command with modal characteristics, and there is only one
command in the modal state:
Group 1:G00, G01; (initial mode:G00 ) ;
Group 2:G96, G97; (initial mode:G97 ) ;
Group 3:G98, G99; (initial mode:G98 F30 ) ;
The command without modal characteristics has effect in the block and must be defined to use every
time.
【Note】
In AUTO working mode, the system automatically recovers to the program initial mode when it
executes the first command of workpiece program or executes the first block command after M20, or
selects the middle block as the first command.
4.1.4 Safe protection
The CNC system sets a perfect protection measure to prevent the operator from danger and the
machine from being damaged.
4.1.4.1 Hardware limit protection
The system can check the travel limit switch installed on the machined. When the machine slide
moves to press the travel limit switch, the system stops feeding instead of closing other
miscellaneous functions, and the program stops running and the system displays the hardware limit
alarm information of corresponding axis.
After the travel limit switch alarms, the system can select JOG working mode, the key for axis
movement which is reversed to the limited direction is pressed, i.e. the system exits the travel limit
and the travel limit switch alarm automatically disappears on the screen.
【Explanation】
1) X, Y, Z positive limit check shares one pin LT+, and their negative limit check shares one pin
LT-; when the positive limit alarms, all axes cannot move positively but move negatively; and
vice versa.
2) When the travel limit switch runs across the limit block, the limit signal appears; the valid
length of limit block signal is more than 30mm or more to avoid rush out the valid area of the
signal.
3)When the parameter is set to ―limit emergency stop‖ mode (bit parameter P402_d7=1), and
the system runs across the limit block, there may be great deviation between the coordinates
displayed by the system and the actual position. Adjust the machine coordinates.
【Relative parameters】
Bit parameters: P402_d7, P404_d6, P404_d1.
Bit parameter P402_d7 sets the hardware limit alarm mode;
Bit parameter P402_d6 sets whether the hardware limit alarm checks;
Operation Chapter Four System Operation
11
Bit parameter P402_d1 sets the hardware limit alarm level of each axis;
When P404_d1=1 is high level alarm, the positive limit switch +X, +Y, +Z of each axis are normally
closed contact, are connected to X/Z/Y positive limit input interface +LT (they are open and the
system alarms) in serial; the negative limit switch -X, -Y, -Z of each axis are normally closed contact,
are connected to X/Z/Y negative limit input interface -LT (it is off and the system alarms) in serial; it is
suggested that the operator should select in prior the hardware limit to the normally closed contact of
each axis as follows:
When P404_d1=0 is low level alarm, the positive limit switch +X, +Y, +Z of each axis are normally
open contact, are connected to X/Z/Y positive limit input interface LT+ (they are closed and the
system alarms) in serial; the negative limit switch -X, -Y, -Z of each axis are normally open contact,
are connected to X/Z/Y negative limit input interface LT- (it is off and the system alarms) in serial; the
connection is as follows:
4.1.4.2 Software limit safe protection
1) Mechanical software limit safe protection
The mechanical software limit safe protection is to limit machine coordinate motion range to
avoid slide to exceed the motion range. The mechanical software limit alarms when the machine
position (machine coordinates) exceeds the range.
Releasing overtravel alarm methods: reversely movement in JOG working mode (negatively
moves for positive overtravel; positively moves for negative overtravel).
2) Tool nose software limit safe protection
The tool nose software limit safe protection is to limit tool nose coordinate motion range to avoid
the tool nose to exceed the motion range. The tool nose software limit alarms when the machine
position (tool nose coordinates) exceeds the range.
Releasing overtravel alarm methods: reversely movement in JOG working mode (negatively
moves for positive overtravel; positively moves for negative overtravel).
【Explanation】
1) The coordinate axis decelerates to stop when the coordinates exceed the software limit range
during the motion.
【Relative parameters】

4.1.4.3 Emergency stop alarm (emergently stopping the system)
When there is the external emergency stop input terminal ESP in the system input interface, the
operator should connect the emergency stop button Normally closed contact on the machine panel
with the emergency stop input terminal. Press Emergency stop button and the system enters the
emergency stop state. The system stops all feed and sets the output of all the switch value control
such as the spindle and the cooling to be invalid, disaplying ―Emergency Stop Alarm‖.
After the emergency stop condition is released, the operator should rotate the emergency stop
button clockwise based on the up arrow, the button automatically releases to cancel the emergency
stop signal.
When the system is in the emergency stop alarm state and the external emergency stop signal is
cancelled, you can press the ―RESET‖ key to return the previous working mode.
When the system is in the emergency stop state, if the external emergency stop signal is not
cancelled, it is forbidden to operate the system in Manual, Auto and Diagnosis operations; but the
user can press RESET key to remove the alarm window, and switch the control to Edit, Parameter or
Tool Offset operation mode.
If the emergency signal is not cancelled in Edit, Parameter or Tool Compensation operation,
press RESET key to remove the alarm window, then it is available to operate system.
There is the Emergency stop in the movement, there may be great deviation between the
coordinates displayed the system and the actual position, and the operator must correct the machine
coordinates.
When emergency button is pressed, there are a series of procedures to be handled:
1) During emergency stop, the system stops all feed, and terminates program execution; the
spindle stops rotating; cooling and lubricating function is turned OFF.
2) During emergency stop, the system automatically sets the internal stored chuck and tailstock
states to M11 and M79. After the emergency is released, when the foot switch of chuck or
tailstock is pressed for the first time, the states become M10, M78.
3) During emergency stop, if such commands as tool exchanging, tailstock, chuck, gear
changing is being executed, the execution should be stopped immediately (cancel the tool
post CCW/CW signal; tailstock signal and chuck signal are depends on parameter setting); at
this time, the system assumes that the tool post, chuck, tailstock and gear are not in the
