Introduction
This manual is the alarm/parameter guide required to use the MITSUBISHI CNC700/70 Series.
This manual is prepared on the assumption that your machine is provided with all of the MITSUBISHI
CNC700/70 Series functions. Confirm the functions available for your NC before proceeding to operation
by referring to the specification issued by the machine tool builder.
Notes on Reading This Manual
(1) This manual explains general parameters as viewed from the NC.
For information about each machine tool, refer to manuals issued from the machine tool builder.
If the descriptions relating to "restrictions" and "allowable conditions" conflict between this manual
and the machine tool builder's instruction manual, the later has priority over the former.
(2) This manual is intended to contain as much descriptions as possible even about special operations.
The operations to which no reference is made in this manual should be considered impossible.
(3) The "special display unit" explained in this manual is the display unit incorporated by the machine
tool builder, and is not the MITSUBISHI standard display unit.
Caution
If the descriptions relating to the "restrictions" and "allowable conditions" conflict between this
manual and the machine tool builder’s instruction manual‚ the latter has priority over the former.
The operations to which no reference is made in this manual should be considered
"impossible".
This manual is complied on the assumption that your machine is provided with all optional
functions. Confirm the functions available for your machine before proceeding to operation by
referring to the specification issued by the machine tool builder.
In some NC system versions‚ there may be cases that different pictures appear on the screen‚
the machine operates in a different way or some function is not activated.
Precautions for Safety
Always read the specifications issued by the machine tool builder, 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
CAUTION
Note that even items ranked as "

WARNING
1. Items related to product and manual
If the descriptions relating to the "restrictions" and "allowable conditions" conflict between this
manual and the machine tool builder's instruction manual‚ the latter has priority over the former.
The operations to which no reference is made in this manual should be considered impossible.
This manual is complied on the assumption that your machine is provided with all optional
functions. Confirm the functions available for your machine before proceeding to operation by
referring to the specification issued by the machine tool builder.
In some NC system versions‚ there may be cases that different pictures appear on the screen‚
the machine operates in a different way on some function is not activated.
2. Items related to faults and abnormalities
If the battery low alarm is output, save the machining programs, tool data and parameters to an
input/output device, and then replace the battery. If the BATTERY alarm occurs, the machining
programs, tool data and parameters may be damaged. After replacing the battery, reload each
data item.
CAUTION
[Continued on next page]
CAUTION
3. Items related to maintenance
Do not replace the battery while the power is ON.
Do not short-circuit, charge, heat, incinerate or disassemble the battery.
Dispose of the spent battery according to local laws.
Do not connect or disconnect the connection cables between each unit while the power is ON.
Do not pull the cables when connecting/disconnecting it.
Do not replace cooling fan while the power is ON.
Dispose of the replaced cooling fan according to the local laws.
Do not replace backlight while the power is ON.
Dispose of the spent backlights according to the local laws.
Do not touch backlight while the power is ON. Failure to observe this could result in electric shocks
due to high voltage.
Do not touch backlight while LCD panel is in use. Failure to observe this could result in burns.
LCD panel and backlight are made of glass, so do not apply impacts or pressure on them. Failure to
observe this could result in breakage.
Incorrect connections could cause the devices to damage. Connect the cable to the designated
connector.
[Continued]
Do not replace control units while the power is ON.
Do not replace display units while the power is ON.
Do not replace keyboard units while the power is ON.
Do not replace DX units while the power is ON.
Do not replace hard disk units while the power is ON.
Dispose of the replaced hard disk unit according to the local laws.
Hard disk unit is a precision device, so do not drop or apply strong impacts on it.
4. Items related to servo parameters and spindle parameters
Do not adjust or change the parameter settings greatly as operation could become unstable.
In the explanation on bits, set all bits not used, including blank bits, to "0".

If there is no parameter file (ALL.PRM), input the parameters with system setup or by manual input operation.
(1) Parameter input with system setup
With the system setup function, various setups necessary for the NC to initially startup are available by
simply entering the minimum required items. File formatting can be done at the same time.
Items required for setting with system setup are as follows.
● Display language, number of spindle connections, number of auxiliary axis connections
(for 700 Series only)
● Number of axes and command type for each part system
● Servo I/F connection channel and rotary switch setting for each spindle.
Also, type of converter connected with each spindle drive.
● Servo I/F connection channel and rotary switch setting for each servo axis.
Also, type of converter connected with each servo drive.
For details, refer to the section "system setup screen" in the instruction manual.
→ "Param", and set the various parameters such as the base
specifications parameters and axis specification parameters according to the machi ne configuration.
The minimum required parameters are listed below. Refer to "III Explanation of Parameters" for
details on each parameter.
