Introduction

This manual is a guide of the parameters used with the CNC MELDAS C6/C64/C64T. This manual is written on the assumption that all machine parameters of the MELDAS

C6/C64/C64T are provided. However, the CNC may not necessarily be provided with all of the options. When the system is used, therefore, reference should be made to the

Specifications Manual issued by the machine maker.

Points to be observed when reading this manual

(1)This manual contains general descriptions as seen from the standpoint of NC (numerical control) and thus refer to the Instruction Manual issued by the machine maker for descriptions of individual machine tools.

The Instruction Manual issued by the machine maker takes precedence over this manual when any mention of "restrictions", "usable states" or such details are mentioned.

(2)As much information as possible on special procedures has been included in this manual, and it may be considered that any procedures not mentioned cannot be undertaken.

(3)Also refer to the following manuals.

CAUTION

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 that are not described must be interpreted as "not possible".

This manual is written on the assumption that all option functions are added. Refer to the Specifications Manual issued by the machine maker before starting use.

Refer to the manuals issued by the machine manufacturer for each machine tool explanation.

Some screens and functions may differ or may not be usable depending on the NC system version.

Precautions for Safety

Always read the Specifications Manual 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.
			When the user may be subject to fatalities or major injuries if
		WARNING
			handling is mistaken.
			When the user may be subject to injuries or when physical damage
		CAUTION
			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

Not applicable in this manual.

CAUTION

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 that are not described must be interpreted as "not possible".

This manual is written on the assumption that all option functions are added. Refer to the Specifications Manual issued by the machine maker before starting use.

Refer to the manuals issued by the machine manufacturer for each machine tool explanation.

Some screens and functions may differ or may not be usable depending on the NC system version.

CAUTION

2. Items related to servo/spindle parameters

To change the control mode to the High-gain amp (MDS-B-V14/V24) mode after replacement of the Standard amp (MDS-B-V1/V2), it is need to change the parameters and to adjust the servo parameters to fit to the High-gain amp.

Mode change between the Standard amp mode and the High-gain amp mode is actually performed when the power (200V) is turned ON. Thus, when changing some parameters unique to each amp, an alarm “7F” occurs and requests to turn the power ON again.

Note that the alarm “7F” may occur when the amp is mounted on the machine for the first time.

When the alarm “7F” occurs, turn the power ON again.

The alarm “7F” may not occur at second turning ON or later unless the above-mentioned parameters are changed.

With MDS-C1 series, only the serial encoder is applied as the motor end detector. Thus, OHE/OHA type detector cannot be used as the motor end detector.

Do not make remarkable adjustments or changes of the parameters as the operation may became unstable.

3. Items related to the other parameters

When setting the parameter (#6449/bit6, 7) not to check the overheat, the control unit and the communication terminal may not be controlled because of overheat.

In such case, axis runaway may cause a machine breakage, an accident resulting in injury or death, or device breakage.

To prevent the serious results, ordinarily set the parameters so that the overheat check is valid.
