In this NC unit, the machining programs, param eters and tool compensation data are saved in the memory (mem ory elements). This NC unit's m emory is backed up by lithium batteries, and under normal conditions will last 6 years from the date of m anufacture. However, data contents could be lost under the conditions described below. To prevent data loss, output important programs, parameters, etc., to a serial input/output device and save them. Refer to Section " how to do this.

Data in the memory can be lost under these kinds of conditions.

< Important Usage Notes >

III

-8 Maintenance Functions" in this manual f or inform ation on

(1) Incorrect operation

Data can be lost if the operator inadvertently changes data while editing a program or setting parameters. (This is not really a data loss, but it is a loss from the standpoint that the original data is gone.)

Data can be lost if the operator inadvertently deletes data or initializes NC unit.

(2) Battery life expires

When the battery life expires and there is not enough voltage to store the data in the memory, data can be lost by turning the power OFF.

(3) Faults

Data can be lost when faults occur and the control unit must be replaced.

Precautions for Safety

Always read the specifications issued by the machine maker, this manual, related manuals and attached documents before installation, operation, programming, maintenance or inspection to ensure correct use. Understand this numerical controller, safety items and cautions before using the unit. This manual ranks the safety precautions into "DANGER", "WARNING" and "CAUTION".

DANGER

When the user may be subject to imminent fatalities or major injuries if handling is mistaken.

WARNING

When the user may be subject to fatalities or major injuries if handling is mistaken.

CAUTION

When the user may be subject to bodily injury or when physical damage may occur if handling is mistaken.

Note that even items ranked as "

CAUTION", may lead to major results depending on the situation. In any case, important information that must always be observed is described.

DANGER

Not applicable in this manual.

WARNING

1. Items related to operation

If the operation start position is set in a block which is in the middle of the program and

the program is started, the program before the set block is not executed. Please confirm that G and F modal and coordinate values are appropriate. If there are coordinate system shift commands or M, S, T and B commands before the block set as the start position, carry out the required commands using the MDI, etc. If the program is run from the set block without carrying out these operations, there is a danger of interference with the machine or of machine operation at an unexpected speed, which may result in breakage of tools or machine tool or may cause damage to the operators. Under the constant surface speed control (during G96 modal), if the axis targeted for the constant surface speed control moves toward the spindle center, the spindle rotation speed will increase and may exceed the allowable speed of the workpiece or chuck, etc. In this case, the workpiece, etc. may jump out during machining, which may result in breakage of tools or machine tool or may cause damage to the operators.

1. Items related to product and manual

For items described as "Restrictions" or "Usable State" in this manual, the instruction

manual issued by the machine maker takes precedence over this manual.

Items not described in this manual must be interpreted as "not possible". This manual is written on the assumption that all option functions are added. Confirm

with the specifications issued by the machine maker before starting use.

Refer to the Instruction Manual issued by each machine maker for details on each

machine tool.

Some screens and functions may differ depending on the NC system (or its version),

and some functions may not be possible. Please confirm the specifications before use.

2. Items related to installation and assembly

Ground the signal cables to ensure stable system operation. Also ground the NC unit

main frame, power distribution panel and machine to one point, so they all have the same potential.

If the control unit's rotary switch is set to "7", all data in the NC will be erased and the

system will not start up.

CAUTION

3. Items related to preparation before use

Always set the stored stroke limit. Failure to set this could result in collision with the

machine end.

Always turn the power OFF before connecting/disconnecting the I/O device cable.

Failure to do so could damage the I/O device and NC unit.

4. Items related to screen operation If the tool offset and workpiece coordinate system offset are changed during automatic

operation (including during single block stop), they are validated from the command of the next block or blocks onwards.

When forcibly setting (forcibly outputting) data on the I/F diagnosis screen during

machine operation, pay careful attention to the sequence operation.

All of the various data in the NC memory is erased when formatting. Be sure to use

the transfer function to transfer all necessary data to another storage device before formatting.

Even if the tool compensation amount write command, parameter write command or

variable data write command is executed with graphic check, the data will be actually written in, and the original data will be overwritten.

To prevent influence from data omission and data transformation in the communication

circuit, always verify the data after inputting and outputting machining programs.

Do not change setup parameters without prior approval from the machine maker.

5. Items related to programming Because of key chattering, etc., during editing, "NO NOS. FOLLOWING G" commands

become a "G00" operation during running.

" ; " "EOB" and " % " "EOR" are explanatory notations. The actual codes are "Line

feed" and "%" for ISO, and "End of Block" and "End of Record" for EIA.

Do not change the fixed cycle program without prior approval from the machine maker.

(Continued on next page)

Page 9

CAUTION

6. Items related to operation

Stay out of the moveable range of the machine during automatic operation. During rotation, keep hands, feet and face away from the spindle.

Carry out dry operation before actually machining, and confirm the machining program, tool offset and workpiece coordinate system offset.

If the operation start position is set from a block in the program and the program is started, the program before the set block is not executed. If there are coordinate system shift commands or M, S, T, and B commands before the block set as the starting position, carry out the required commands using the MDI, etc. There is a danger of interference with the machine if the operation is started from the set starting position block without carrying out these operations.

Program so the mirror image function is turned ON/OFF at the mirror image center. The mirror image center will deviate if the function is turned ON/OFF at a position other than the mirror image center.

7. Items related to faults and abnormalities

If a BATTERY FAULT alarm is issued, save the machining program, tool data and parameters before replacing the battery.

If the axis overruns or emits an abnormal noise, immediately press the emergency stop button and stop the axis movement.

8. Items related to maintenance

Incorrect connections may damage the devices, so connect the cables to the

specified connectors.

Do not apply voltages other than those indicated in this manual on the connector.

Doing so may lead to destruction or damage.

Do not connect or disconnect the connection cables between each unit while the

power is ON.

Do not connect or disconnect the PCBs while the power is ON.

Do not connect the cable by pulling on the cable wire. Do not short circuit, charge, overheat, incinerate or disassemble the battery. Dispose the spent battery according to local laws. Do not replace the control unit while the power is ON. Do not replace the base I/O unit while the power is ON. Do not replace the control section power supply PCB while the power is ON. Do not replace the expansion PCB while the power is ON. Do not replace the memory cassette while the power is ON. Be careful that metal cutting chips, etc., do not come into contact with the connector

contacts of the memory cassette. Do not replace the high-speed program server unit while the power is ON.

2.2.1 Correcting the Buffer

(1) Outline

During automatic operation (memory or tape operation) or MDI operation, a block stop can be applied, and the next command can be corrected or changed. When a program error occurs, the block in which the error occurred can be corrected without resetting the NC, and operation can be continued.

(Note) When running a machining program from the external memory, even if the buffer is

corrected, the revisions are not reflected on the original program.

(2) Details

(a) The next command can be corrected in the following two cases.

• When single block stop is applied, and there is a machining program containing a next command to be corrected.

• During automatic operation, there is an error (program error) in the next command's machining program, and the program is stopped.

(b) During memory or MDI operation, not only the displayed buffer data but also the memory and

MDI contents are corrected with the buffer corrections.

(Note) The buffers on the second and third pages of the COORDINATE screen cannot be

corrected.

(l) The buffer cannot be corrected during IC card operation with M198. The message "CAN'T BUF.

EDIT" will appear.

(m) Cases in which buffer cannot be corrected The subprogram call command (M98) and return command (M99 ) will execute the next blo ck to

be executed (subprogram head and return designation) with one automatic start. Thus, the buffer for the subprogram's head and return destination blocks cannot be corrected.

(Example 1)

O10 G28 XYZ : N10 G0 X50.; M98 P100;

O100 N100 G01 Y10. F5000.; N110 G01 Z10.; M99;

% N11 G0 X100.; N12 G0 X150.; M02; %

If automatic start is executed when the block is stopped with N10, the N100 block will be executed and will stop with N110. Thus, the buffer for N100 cannot be corrected. If automatic start is executed when the block is stopped with N110, the N11 block will be executed and will stop with N12. Thus, the buffer for N11 cannot be corrected. (Note that if the buffer is corrected when the block is stopped before N10, then N11 can be corrected.)

Normal buffer correction of the subprogram's head is not possible, as shown in the above example. Note that if there is a G0/G1 command in the M98 block, the block will stop at that block. (Example: G0M98P100;) If a block containing only the sequence No. is created at the head of the subprogram, the program will stop at that block, so buffer correction of the following blocks is possible.

program numbers 9000 to 9999 is not possible. The "E16 EDIT LOCK C" error will occur.

When the base specification parameter #1122 pglk_c=1/2, buffer correction of program

Upon completion of the restart search, the M, S, T or B f unction, restart distance to go and restart position are displayed.

"RP" is displayed when the axes have finished moving to the restart position and the subsequent axes do not move in either the "+" or "-" direction.

An operation error results even if there is one axis which is not at the restart posit ion for automatic start (cycle start). Note that if program restart automatic return (#1302 AutoRp) is turned ON, all axes will simultaneously return to the restart position when the cycle is started. Machining will restart after all axes have returned.

(Note) Restart type 3 is valid only with the lathe system.

2.5.3 Restart Position Return System

Selection can be made by parameter setting as to whether the restart position return after th e restart search is to be performed either manually or automatically.

(1) Manual restart position return

Set the program restart switch to ON and mode the axes manually to the restart position.

• Set the restart switch to ON.

• Set operation to the manual

(JOG/rapid traverse) mode.

• Move the axes in the restart return

[RESTART- (G54)] [RESTART-R] X -130.000 RP X 0.000 Y -10.000 RP Y 0.000 Z 0.000 RP Z 0.000 C 0.000 RP C 0.000

direction.

fter the axes have finished returning to the restart position, the [RESTART-R] values on the program restart screen are set to zero and "RP" appears by the side of the [RESTART-P] values.

Set the restart switch to OFF.

(Note 1) When the restart switch is ON, the axes cannot be moved in the reverse direction to the

restart direction. An operation error (0003) will occur if the axis is moved in the opposite direction. When a tool bumps into the workpiece and must be retracted, set the restart switch to OFF and retract the tool manually.

(Note 2) After returning to the restart position, the axes cannot be moved with the restart switch ON.

An operation error (0111) will occur if the axis is moved.

(Note 3) If, during cycle start, there is even one axis which has not returned to the restart position, an

operation error (0112) (there is an axis which has not returned to the restart position) will result. However, and operation error will not result with an axis which has been returned to the restart position but which is no longer at that position.

(Note 4) If the restart position return axis is a machine lock axis, an operation error (0126) will occur.

Release the machine lock before starting the return to the restart position.

(2) Automatic restart position return

If the program restart automatic return (#1302 AutoRP) is set to 1 and the cy cle is started, the axes will return to the restart position with dry run in the order designated with the restart position return order (#2082 a_rstax). Machining will restart after the axes have returned.

(Note 1) Proceed with cycle start after the axes have been moved by manual means to positions

where the tools do not make contact with the workpieces. If the axis has been moved with MDI, restart search will be invalidated. (Note 2) Even if the "#1302 AutoRP" is set to 1, the axes can be returned manually to the restart

position by turning the restart switch ON. In this case, move the axes in the order of manual restart position return → automatic restart

position return. The restart operation is completed when the automatic restart position return is completed.

Thus, after completing automatic restart position return, if the operation is stopped

temporarily and the restart switch is turned ON, an operation error will occur. (Note 3) When any axis, which has already been returned manually to the restart position, is

subsequently moved from the restart position, it will not return to that position even with the

automatic restart position return. (Note 4) The axis for which "#2082 a_rstax" is set to 0 will not return to the restart position. Note that

if "#2082 a_rstax" is set to 0 for all axes, all axes will simultaneously return to the restart

position. If the axis for which "#2082 a_rstax" is set to 0 has not completed manual restart

position return when automatic restart position return is started, the error "T01 CAN'T

CYCLE ST 112" (restart position return incomplete) will occur.

2.5.4 Manual Numeric Commands with Program Restart

If restart search is completed, the M, S, T and B codes used for machining will appea r on th e secon d pa ge of the PROGRAM RESTART screen. The M, S, T and B functions can be set in the time between the completion of the restart search and the resetting or start. The maximum numbers of the codes that can be displayed are 35 for the M functions, 3 for the S functions, 3 for the T functions and 3 for the B functions. If these numbers of codes used for the machining are exceeded, the codes used first are not displayed. The codes that ar e not di splayed can not be comm and ed on this screen, and so manual numeric commands are executed on the POSITION screen. The 2nd miscellaneous function code can be changed by setting the parameters. Even if the miscellaneous function M is designated in the same block, these will appear in the commanded order.

Select page 2 of the PROGRAM RESTART screen.

1) The M, S, T and B commands used for machining appear.

2.5.5 Checkpoints for Program Restart

(1) Set the tool offset amounts and parameters before proceeding with the program restart search. If the

conditions for such are not set beforehand, it will not be possible for the axes to return to the proper machining start position.

(2) Do not conduct automatic operations during program restart.

It will not be possible for the axes to return to the proper machining start position if either operation is conducted during program restart. ("During program restart" means the period from the p rogram restart search to the start of the searched program.)

(3) It will not be possible for the axes to return to the proper machining start position if a program using user

macro external signal input, machine coordinate readout or external mirror image commands is the object of the restart search.

(4) When an attempt is made to shift the coordinate systems by manual or MDI interrupt while the previous

machining program is being executed, it will not be possible for the axes to return to the proper machining start position.

(5) If type 1 is used, there is no need to implement the unmodal search for the head of the

program. The operation start block of the previously operated program is stored inside and the type 1 restart search commences the search (modal search) from the previous operation start block and it locates the designated block. Consequently, unmodal searches are invalid even if they are conducte d.

(6) When type 2 is used with type A (standard specifications), the message "E80 TOP SEARCH ERR" will

appear if an unmodal search is not executed and search is directly attempted with type 2. Cond uct the unmodal search first.

(7) If either type 1 or type 2 is used, it is not possible to search blocks with macro statements during the

restart search operation. (This will result in the "E13 NB NOT FOUND" error.)

To initiate a restart search for blo cks wit h macro statements, first set the "#2 MA CRO SINGLE" control

parameter ON and then proceed. However, the tool path may change because of the relationship of the radius compensation, corner rounding/chamfering and geometric read ahead blocks.

(8) When conducting restart with a tape operation, it will not be possible to return to the proper machining

start position if operation is started midway through the tape.

(9) WHILE/GOTO statements cannot be used during tape operations. This means that if such statement s

exist even when restart search is performed by tape, a program error (P29) results.

(10) The program number can not be omitted when conducting a search with type 1 or 2 for type A (standard

specification). If this number setting is omitted, the "E01 SETTING ERROR" message appears and

restart search is not executed. Reset the program number and proceed again with operation. (11) If a type 2 search is executed when using type B, the designated sequence No. and block No. will be

searched for in all programs within the designated program numbers. Note that if the same sequence

No. is found in the main program and subprograms, the No. of appearances designation P will be the

number of times for the entire program. (12) Select type A and type B with the setup parameter "#1278 ext14/bit0". 0: Type A 1: Type B (13) When using multiple systems, carry out restart search for each system. (14) If the axis returning to the restart position is a linear type rotary axis, the axis will return to the workpiece

coordinate position. (15) When using type 3 (T command restart), the N number must be issued before the first T command

block in the program to be searched. (16) When using type 3 (T co mmand restart), there must b e one or more N number within 100 blo cks of the

program. (17) When using type 3 (T command restart), the only T commands that can be searched are the main

program and the subprogram (nesting 1) called from the main program. (18) When u sing type 3 (T com mand restart), if the prog ram is edited b efore restart search and the positio n

of the T command block executed last differs from the execution, the error "E98 CAN'T RESEARCH"

will occur when the search is started.

The local variable numbers and contents are displayed. The alphabetic character preceding each local variable number is argument code. None of G, L, N, O, and P can be used as arguments and are displayed. 33 local variables (#1 to #33) exist for each user macro su bprogram call level of depth. If variable data is "null" (Note), the data display field will be blank. If the number of columns of data is too large (the data contains more than six characters in the integer part or more than four characters in the fraction part), the exponent will be used for display.

(Note) In terms of calculation, a "null" setting is handled in the

same manner as "0". However, it is not handled in the same manner as "0" when using the condition expressions EQ and NE.

ACT. LV. (1) This indicates the level of depth during user macro subprogram

control execution. (0): User macro is not called. (1): User macro call level 1 (2): User macro call level 2 (3): User macro call level 3 (4): User macro call level 4

Display item Explanation

<INVALID> FEED-HOLD OVERRIDE EXACT SNGL-BLOCK MST-FIN

This indicates the modal state of the operation control status by the #3003, #3004 command. FEED-HOLD : Is displayed when command is programmed with

#3004 bit 0 set to 1, indicating that feed hold is invalid.

OVERRIDE : Is displayed when command is programmed with

#3004 bit 1 set to 1, indicating that cutting override is invalid.

EXACT : Is displayed when command is programmed with

#3004 bit 2 set to 1, indicating that the G09 (block deceleration check) command is invalid.

SNGL-BLOCK: Is displayed when command is programmed with

#3003 bit 0 set to 1, indicating that block stop is invalid.

MST-FIN : Is displayed when command is programmed with

#3003 bit 1 set to 1, indicating the state of proceeding to the next block without waiting for the M, S, T command completion signal.

2.8.1 Local Variable Data Display

(1) When local variable #1~#33 command exists in user macro or argument specification is made in user

macro subprogram call, if the block is executed, the execution result is displayed.

(Example)

When the following machining program is executed and user macro subprogram is called, data as shown in the right is displayed on the page of local variable display level (1):
