1 Hardware concept

The HEIDENHAIN-contouring controls TNC 407 and TNC 415 are designed for use with drilling and milling machines.

The HEIDENHAIN-TNCs consist of several units. The principal subassembly is the logic unit. The logic unit is joined to the other units and the TNC accessories by connecting cables.

PLC outputs

The logic unit contains the electronics for both the NC and the PLC sections of the control. The common data area contains the machine parameters and the PLC markers and words. The machine parameters define the hardware configuration of the machine (ranges of travel, acceleration, number of axes etc.). The PLC markers and words are used for the exchange of information between the NC and the PLC.

3 Software

The logic unit contains separate software for the NC section and the PLC section. The software is identified by an 8-figure number.

After switching on the control, the NC, PLC and Software-Options software numbers are displayed on the screen. The software number can also be directly requested with the aid of the MOD function.

3.1 NC-Software

3.1.1 NC-Software number

The 8-figure NC software number identifies the type of control, the dialog language (language of the country) and the version of the software.

259 96 0 01

Software type

National language

0 = German 1 = Czech 2 = French 3 = Italian 4 = Spanish 6 = Swedish 7 = Danish 8 = Finnish 9 = Dutch

Software version

In addition to the above-listed languages, the TNC can always use English, which may be selected via the machine parameter MP7230.

3.1.2 Software types

Due to restrictions on the export of the TNC 415 B, HEIDENHAIN can also deliver a special export version. This export version is differentiated from the standard control through the installed software type. With this software type, the control offers different features in respect of linear interpolation and the entry/display resolutions.

Linear interpolation Entry/Display

Resolution

TNC 415 B (Standard) 5 of 5 axes up to 0.1 µm TNC 415 F (Export) 4 of 5 axes up to 1 µm

The TNC 407 does not fall under the export restrictions, therefore no export version is necessary.

01.98 TNC 407/TNC 415/TNC 425 3 Software 2-7

New functions will be introduced only in the following software types:

TNC 415B / TNC 425: 280 54 TNC 415F / TNC 425 E: 280 56 TNC 407: 280 58

These software types are therefore supplied as standard.

3.1.3 Software option

HEIDENHAIN offers the "Digitising with TS 120" function as a software option (see chapter "Machine integration"). An additional software protection module is installed in controls supplied with this software option. The Id.-Nr. of the logic unit indicates another version. If the software module is installed, the option is indicated on the screen under the NC and PLC software numbers.

Logic units that have already been delivered can be retrofitted with the software protection module. Please contact HEIDENHAIN if you wish to buy this option for your existing control. The proper component model must be ordered for a specific hardware model.

3.2 PLC-Software

The PLC software is produced by the manufacturer of the machine. Either HEIDENHAIN or the manufacturer of the machine can store this software in EPROMs. HEIDENHAIN assigns PLC software numbers to the machine manufacturers on request. HEIDENHAIN can archive the specific PLC programs in a data bank, so that the installation of the correct PLC program is assured if a control has to be exchanged.

The PLC EPROM must be written in the format of the corresponding software type! Beginning with software types 280 54, 280 56 and 280 58, either a 1 MB or a 2 MB EPROM can be used for the PLC.

3.4 Software replacement

Before replacing the software on a TNC the data of all file types, the machine parameter list, the nonlinear axis error compensation table and the PLC program (if in the RAM) must be backed up.

You can use the TNC BACKUP routine to do this. In the "Machine Parameter Editor" mode (code number 95 148) press the MOD key to display the menu for configuring the data interface. The "BACKUP DATA" and "RESTORE DATA" soft keys will be offered.

Use "BACKUP DATA" to transmit all operating parameters and the data of all file types across the data interface and store them in the $BACKUP.ANC file. When software replacement is complete, use "RESTORE DATA" to download the data to the TNC again.

New functions:

PLC module 9033 has been introduced. This module allows the user to select a particular machine

−

parameter file in a SUBMIT job and then execute a Reset so the control system boots up with this MP file.

If the PLC simultaneously issues two commands from memory areas PLC positioning (M2704 to

from word processing to TNC 355 mode) has the value 0, the same checks will be run with the corresponding TNC 355 strobes.

The offset for a variable-speed spindle is now adjusted with a new algorithm. A single offset

−

adjustment is made two seconds after the nominal value has reached target position. Every second thereafter the offset voltage is increased by 0.152 mV or decreased by 0.152 mV when servo lag is greater or less than zero respectively, and if the voltage computed from the product of servo lag and Kv factor is greater than 0.152 mV. This means that the offset voltage changes by 1 mV in 7 seconds approx.

New functions:

– A “PLC” column was added to the tool table. As in the pocket table, relevant PLC data can be

entered here. This column is activated with machine parameter MP7266.17. – A datum, tool, or pocket table can be searched for to certain values using Module 9092. – The PLC can activate the geometry data of the tool from W264 with the new marker M2717. – The elements “Number of cutting edges“, ”Tolerance for tool length”, “Tolerance for tool

radius”, “Cutting direction of the tool” and “PLC status” were added to Modules 9093 and 9094. – During feed pre-control, the positioning window is not evaluated until the current velocity is less

than MP1525. In the previous software versions, the positioning window was not evaluated until

the velocity fell below 0.5 mm/min. Increasing the input value in MP1525 increases the block

processing time. – Feed pre-control can be activated for all modes of operation with machine parameter MP1391.

This becomes necessary when stiction compensation is to be active in the manual modes of

operation. – The maximum permissible positional difference between the two gantry axes is defined in

MP855. When this value is exceeded, the blinking error message GROSS POSITIONING ERROR

<AXIS> # A appears. The current positional deviation appears in the LAG display of the slave

axis. – Module 9171 makes it possible to orient the spindle at a rotational speed defined by the PLC. – Modules 9040 and 9041 make it possible to read coordinates referenced to a shifted coordinate

system. – The jog increment can now be limited with Module 9036. – With the new marker M2827 an EMERGENCY STOP (control-is-ready PLC input signal) can be

suppressed and, instead, all control loops opened and an NC stop executed. – The new marker M2830 opens all control loops and stops the NC. – In a digitized data file that has been produced with the TM 110 touch probe, the BLK FORM is

enlarged in the working plane by double the value of the deflection depth (MP6310). – The radius compensation in the working plane is now also effective in NC blocks with 5-axis

interpolation. The NC block can contain, besides the three non-parallel linear axes, also two rotary

axes. – Tool measurement with the TT 110 is possible only on machines with controlled spindle

(Spindle orientation).

New functions:

− To make changes to the tool table it is no longer necessary to transfer the entire tool table. It now

suffices to transfer only those tool data that have changed. These partial data can be transferred in the Program Run mode of operation

− For a rotary table display that is set to modulo 360°, the M function M 126 positions the table by

the shortest path. M 127 positions the table, as before, by the path that does not cross over the 0° position.

The function for automatic tool measurement was expanded with the TT 110. The new fields L-OFFS, R-OFFS, LBREAK and RBREAK were introduced to the tool table (MP7266.19 to MP7266.21). In addition, in Cycle 31 the radius is no longer entered and the fields L-OFFS, R-OFFS, LBREAK and RBREAK were added to the modules 9092, 9093 and 9094. The new marker M2393 is set whenever the break tolerance is exceeded.
