2.1.2 Setting up without Connecting to the Motor/ Drive unit

When connecting the motor or drive unit after setting up the system, set the axis data beforehand to enable the operation without the motor or drive unit. The following shows the procedures.

Setting up without Connecting to the Motor

The axis detach function can be used for servo axis. The detach function cannot be used for spindle.

(1) Set the drive unit rotary switch and "#1021 mcp_no" for the axis that is not connected to the motor. (2) Set "1" to the parameter "#1070 axoff" for the axis that is not connected to the motor. (3) Do (a) or (b).

(a) Set "1" to parameter "#8201 AX. RELEASE" for the axis that is not connected to the motor. (b) Turn ON the control axis detach signal (Y780) for the axis that is not connected to the motor.

Setting up without Connecting to the Drive unit

Set the following parameters.

(1) Set "#1021 mcp_no" (for the servo axis) or "#3031 smcp_n o" (for the spindle axis) to th e axis that is no t

connected to the drive unit.

(2) Set the following parameters to the axis that is not connected to the drive unit.

For the servo axis: Set "1" to "#2018 no_srv". For the spindle axis: Set "0" to "#3024 sout".

After connecting to the drive unit, make sure to set "#2018 no_srv" to "0" and "#3024 sout" to "1".

4.1 Outline of HMI Integrated Installer

"HMI integrated installer" is a function to install and upgrade "Custom release applications" with the data in the memory card.

The integrated installer has two methods to install and upgrade the applications:

- Starting an installer (EXE file) which has been prepared to install the applications (This method is called "Installer start method".)

- Copying, deleting and setting the registry of the specified file (directory) with the integrated installer to install the applications (This method is called "File copy method".)

Both methods require the following files in the memory card to install or upgrade the applications.

- Installation environment for each application (EXE file, a file to copy, etc.)

- A setting file which collects the information on installation for applications (The setting file is called

"setup application list".)

4.2 Memory Card for Upgrade

The directory configuration of the memo ry card for th e up gr a de is as follow s.

(A) Directory for custom release applications (The name is fixed to "CustomInstall".) (B) Setup application list for custom release applications (The name is fixed to "Setuplst.ini".) (C) Directories in which installation environment is stored for each custom release application (Set any

name.) Files required for the installation are stored in the directories.

M700VW Series Setup Manual

4.3 Operation Methods

(Note 1) To change just the basic machine coordinate zero point, set "#0 Absolute posn set" and "#2 Zero-

P", and then turn the power OFF and ON.

(Note 2) If aligning to the marked point is attempted without passing the grid point even once after turning

the power ON, the operation message "Not Passed on grid" will appear. Return to a point before the last grid, and then repeat from the step of aligning the axis on the marked point.

(Note 3) If the first grid point is covered by the grid mask ("#2028 grmask") as a result of return to the electric

basic position, the axis stops at the next grid point. Note that the zero point shift ("#202 7 G28sft") is invalid.

MITSUBISHI CNC

Following functions are available for setting a tool entry prohibited range to detect over travels (OT).

(1) (1)(2)(2)

WARNING

(1) Stroke end (H/W OT)

The limit switch signal will detect the stroke end and limit the movement of the axis.

(2) Stored stroke limit (S/W OT)

Prohibited ranges are set with parameters.

When stroke end (H/W OT) is set, the axis will move the distance required to decelerate and stop after H/W OT is activated. When stored stroke limit (S/W OT) is set, the axis will stop before the prohibited range of S/W OT including the deceleration distance. For safety, set the stroke end (H/W OT) and also, the stored stroke limit (S/W OT).

Stroke end (H/W OT) and stored stroke limit (S/W OT) must always be set. If not, the tool may hit the machine end.

8.1 Stroke End (H/W OT)

The axis movement is controlled by the limit switch which detects the stroke end. Signal device No. is allocated by the following par ame te rs. Parameter "#2074" and "#2075" will be valid only when "#1226 aux10/bit" is set to "1".

#1226 aux10/bit5: Set to "1" (assigning the signal is valid). #2074 H/W OT+: Set the input device for assigning the OT (+) signal. (Setting range 0000 to 02FF

(Hexadecimal))

#2075 H/W OT-: Set the input device for assigning the OT (-) signal. (Setting range 0000 to 02FF

(Hexadecimal))

(Note 1) When "OT IGNORED" (R248) signal is set to ON, the stroke end signal associated with a specific

control axis can be ignored.

(Note 2) When parameter "#1226 aux10/bit5" is set to "1", do not set the same device No. to #2073 to

#2075. Setting the same device No. may cause the emergency stop. However, the device number will not be checked for the axis which is set the signal to ignore (R248,R272).

Valid Conditions of Stored Stroke Limit

CAUTION

When using the relative position detection system, the stored stroke limit is invalid until the reference position return is completed after the power is turned ON. The stored stroke limit can be validated even if the reference position return is not yet completed, by setting "#2049 type (Absolute position detection method)" to "9".

(Note) If the absolute position detection is valid when using the absolute position detection system,

the stored stroke limit will be validated immediately after the power is turned ON.

Stored Stroke Limit Coordinates

The stored stroke limit check is carried out in the basic machine coordinate system established by the reference position return. When the stored stroke limit has been validated while the reference position return has not been completed, the stored stroke limit check is executed with the basic machine coordinate system at the time of last power-OFF as temporary one. When the 1st dog-type reference position return is completed after the power is turned ON, the proper coordinate system is established.

(Note) While the reference position return has not been completed, only the manual and handle feed

mode allow the axis movement. Automatic operation is validated after the reference position return is completed.

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

M700VW Series Setup Manual

8.2 Stored stroke limit (S/W OT)

8.2.2 Detailed Explanation

The stored stroke limit sets a prohibited range with the parameters or pro gram command. The minim um and maximum values of the prohibited range are set as the coordinate value (radius value) on the machine coordinate system for each axis.

- The stroke check will not be executed when both maximum and minimum value are set to the same value.

- This function is valid after the reference position return if the system does not apply the absolute position detection system.

- Before the machine enters the prohibited range, an error "M01 Operation error 0007" (S/W stroke end) will occur, and the machine movement will stop. The alarm can be reset by moving the erroneous axis in the opposite direction.

- During automatic operation, if an alarm occurs with even one axis, all axes will decelerate to a stop.

- During manual operation, only the axis that caused the alarm will decelerate to a stop.

- The axis will always stop at a position before the prohibited range.

- The distance between the prohibited range and stop position will depend on the feedrate, etc.

The stored stroke limits I, II, IIB, IB and IC are handled as follows.

8.2.2.5 Movable Range during Inclined Axis Control

By setting "#2063 OT_1Btype" to "3", the inclined axis control axis can be checked with the program coordinates using the stored stroke limit IB/IC range setting ("#2061" and "#2062"). The stored stroke limit IB and IC cannot be used together at this time. By using this function with stored stroke limit I, the check can be carried out simultaneously with the actual axis and program coordinate value. In this case, the range that does not fit into either of the following two prohibited ranges will be the movable range.

: Moveable range : Prohibited range

Point 3: "#2062 OT_1B+ (Soft limit IB+)" and Point 4: "#2061 OT_1B- (Soft limit IB-)" are set with the coordinate values in th e basic machine coordinate system. Points 1 and 2 are the prohibited range set with stored stroke limit I.

8.2.2.6 Stored Stroke Limit for Rotation Axis

Stored stroke limits I and II are used as the stored stroke limit for the rotation axis. The area between the maximum and minimum values of the prohibited range's parameters, which does not contain the 0 point of the basic machine coordinate system, is the entry prohibited range. The prohibited range parameters for the rotation axis can be set to establish "maximum value < minimum value". This will be handled in the same manner as if "maximum value > minimum value".

(Example)Stored stroke limit I (maximum value and minimum value of prohibited range parameter)

#2013 OT -: -70.000° #2014 OT +: 60.000° Stored stroke limit II (maximum value and minimum value of prohibited range parameter) #8204 OT-CHECK-N: 30.000° #8205 OT-CHECK-P: 80.000°

(A): Moveable range (B): Prohibited range by stored stroke limit I (C): Prohibited range by stored stroke limit II

8.2.2.7 Precautions

(1) If the maximum value and minimum value of the stored stroke limit's prohibited range are set to the

same value, the following will occur. (a) When the maximum value and minimum value are set to "0", if the outside is the prohibited range,

the entire range will be prohibited. If the inside is the prohibited range, the entire range will be the moveable range.

(b) If data other than 0 is set for the maximum value and minimum value, the entire range will be the

moveable range.

(2) The stored stroke limit IC is valid when the axis parameter #2063 is changed. If changed during

automatic operation, the function will be validated after the smoothing for all axes reaches 0.

(3) Make sure that the lower limit value of the stored stroke limit IC setting value is "smaller than the upper

limit value".

(4) When using the peripheral axis, inside of the specified range will be prohibited if the "#2013 OT -" value

is larger than that of "#2014 OT +".
