Preface
10 Series CNC WinPLUS Application Manual
PREFACE
The 10 Series numerical control introduces many new Technical concepts. One of the most
important of these concepts is the concept of information exchange between the CNC and the
integrated PLC (Programmable Logic Controller).
Conventional controls use a window with a large amount of fixed flags, which are continuously
scanned and updated by both CNC and programmable logic control.
The concept of 10 Series by-passes this general conception with a simple but unique solution: both
CNC and PLC use function calls to alert each other, to pass information or to request a certain
action. These function calls need only be executed on event, thus freeing up CPU capacity and
increasing the general system performance.
This manual explains the new concept and shows how applications can use its power.
ABOUT THIS MANUAL
This manual is intended to be used by the OEM personnel in charge of the programming of the
machine tool interface. It gives an overview of the software architecture to be used to develop the
programmable logic.
• it does NOT explain the WinPLUS programming language and the use of any of its language
elements.

SYSTEM - APPLICATION LOGIC HANDSHAKE
Logic Buffer Interface
Chapter 1
Fig. 1-1 System - Application Logic Handshake
THE LOGIC INTERFACE BUFFER – THE M RACK
The system communicates with the logic through a logic interface. This interface is a data buffer in
which the system writes the data to send to the machine logic program.
The data buffer is divided according to its functions in different parts called RACKS.
They are always active.
M Rack
10 Series CNC WinPLUS Application Manual (00) 1-1
Chapter 1
System - Application Logic Handshake
SYSTEM FUNCTION CALLS
The logic from its part communicates with the system through a set of function calls which can
include a parameter exchange between the two parties. There are two types of function calls:
• NO WAIT functions pass a command (with parameters) to the system without waiting for an
answer (the application program execution is not suspended).
• WAIT functions pass a command to the system and wait for a response ( the logic execution is
suspended until the response arrives)
COMMON DATA AREAS
The third communication channel between the logic and the system are the common data areas in
the battery buffered dual ported memory of the I/O processor board. These areas can be divided
in:
• System area. This is a group of 500 variables of the type short (16 bit integer word) containing
the status of the system and/or the processes.
• Global variables. These variables are referred to as "G" variables. They have two formats;
short and double (precision floating point). They can be read and written by both part program
and logic program. The G variables are retentive, i.e. they are not cleared after powering up the
system.
• Tables. Tables are retentive memory areas in the dual port of the I/O processor module. They
can be commonly accessed by the system and by the logic programs. The data contained in
tables includes:
− tool data
− tool offset data
− axes origin data
− axes offsets

Chapter 2
ORGANIZATION OF THE MACHINE LOGIC PROGRAM
The logic program is organised in independent routines. All these routines run on the I/O processor
module and have different priorities depending on their use.
The various routines are activated by the operating system of the PLC following specific events, or
at given times, or may also be run continuously (in loops).
AVAILABLE ROUTINES
Routines activated on time (foreground)
This routine (only one can be present) will be executed on each clock tick of the I/O processor
module. This clock tick is currently set at 10 ms. If the foreground routine execution time exceeds
the available time (max. 10 ms), the system will generate an "overrun error" and go into emergency
status. The routine must have the shortest execution time possible (<5 ms) because the remaining
TICK time is used by routines with a lower priority.
The primary use of the foreground routine is to "latch" events to be executed with fast, precise
timing such as read/write physical I/O device status or handling of security/emergency devices.
Requested name for the routine :fore.
Continuously executed routines (background routines)
A background routine executes continuously in a loop like a program in a standard PLC. The I/O
processor can run up to 12 background routines in parallel.
Each background routine can execute functions of the WAIT type, which will suspend the
execution of that background routine until arrival of the response. In the meantime the other
background routines will continue executing. In reality, when one routine is suspended, control
passes to the next one.
The logic programmer has to optimise the performance of the I/O processor by distributing the
logic in the available background routines. Requested name for the routine : back1 …back12.
10 Series CNC WinPLUS Application Manual (03) 2-1
Chapter 2
Organisation of the Machine Logic Program
Routine activated in an emergency
This routine can be recalled whenever an emergency condition occurs. It can be activated only if it
has been loaded. In an emergency, the logic application may have to execute logic sequences in
parallel with the actions performed by the system. Mandatory name for the routine:
EventTaskEmg.
Routine activated by pressing a softkey (OEM softkey routine)
This routine is called whenever an OEM softkey is pressed (or released).It can be activated only if
it has been loaded.
The OEM softkeys are defined in AMP, enabling the OEM to provide its application with the same
appearance and operability as are typical of the standard system (AMP configuration manual). The
management routine of an OEM softkey works at a very low priority level. Mandatory name for this
routine: EventTaskHum.
Routines activated by part program events (part program interface)
Specific routines (one for each process configured) are called whenever a part program block
contains functions relating to the logic (e.g., M codes, S and T functions, and all the other functions
that can be grouped under the heading of ancillary logic functions). These routines can be
activated only if they have been loaded. Mandatory name for these routines: EventTaskPPX,
where X stands for the name of the associated process.
Routines activated from the console (request for enable signal)
Specific routines (one for each process configured) are called whenever a command is imparted to
the system (e.g., cycle start, reset, etc.), enabling the logic to read and/or suspend the commands
imparted to the system by the operator. These routines can be activated only if they have been
loaded.
These routines are provided for most of the commands that can be entered via softkeys and/or
from the MTB panel. Mandatory name for these routines: EventTaskConX, where X stands for the
name of the associated process.
Routines activated when requested by the logic
Specific routines (from 1 to 39) will be called whenever the logic notifies an event through the
SetEventTask function. Once activated, these tasks will be completed through the end.
Mandatory name for these routines: EventTaskLogX, where X stands for the task number.

Organisation of the Machine Logic Program
ANALISYS OF RACK M
The data supplied from CNC to the logic is written in RACK M every time that the data is
memorised in the interface buffer interrupting the execution of the Background routine for the
necessary time that it takes to be written.
TASK SYNCRONISATION
The background routines can be synchronised with a set of semaphores (32) with the WAIT and
SEND instructions. With the WAIT instruction and a semaphore number (from 0 to 31) it is possible
to suspend the execution of a routine (task) until one of the other routines executes the SEND
instruction with the same semaphore number . In this way it is possible to synchronise the
execution of a task with another event in another task.
Fig. 2-1 Task synchronisation
The instruction WAIT (3) suspends the execution of the BackProgram1 task until the command
SEND (3) in the BackProgram2 task executes. Naturally the exact point (in time) of task resume
depends on its priority.

NOTE:
If a SEND on a semaphore is issued without a task waiting for this semaphore. The SEND
instruction will be ignored. Any routine in WAIT status can only be released by the equivalent
SEND instruction. The routine containing the SEND instruction must be synchronised with the
routine containing the WAIT status request.

When low priority events occur, like consent request calls, part program Interface calls or even

2-8 10 Series CNC WinPLUS - Application Manual (03)
Chapter 2
Organisation of the Machine Logic Program
BACKGROUND EXECUTION
There can be up to 12 background routines. The background routines are those with the lowest
priorities among the routines making up the application logic and are executed in turn every 10 ms
(WinPlus Tick) for 1 ms.
At each WinPlus Tick the integrated PLC updates the I/O's and the foreground routines.
Consent routines, part program interfaces and OEM softkeys are enabled at system request and
interrupt background execution.
After enabling all high priority routines at each WinPlus Tick, the system enables one of the
background routines and lets it run for 1 ms.
At each WinPlus Tick the system enables a different background routine. The sequence of
activation is determined by the number associated with the routine name. At the first WinPlus Tick
the background routine 1 (BACK1) is enabled, at the second the background routine 2 (BACK2)
and so on.
Once the last background routine has been enabled, the system starts again with the first.
Therefore, an individual background routine is executed over several WinPlus Ticks, alternating
part of its code with that of other background routines in time slicing. If a background routine
suspends its execution voluntarily by calling a function such as WAIT or DELAY or indirectly by
calling system functions of the WAIT type, the remaining time up to the end of the millisecond is
available for other system operations (processing a part program, displaying, etc).
If a background routine is shorter than 1 ms, it will execute several times during the WinPlus Tick.
If the background task to be enabled is suspended at a new WinPlus Tick, no other background
routine is executed and the millisecond reserved for it is used by the system.
Fig. 2-6 Background logic execution
Fig. 2.6 shows 3 background loops with total execution times of 3, of 0.5 and 2 ms respectively.

Supposing after foreground execution + I/O ring management the remaining time for each
sampling is constant at 5 mSec, the above routine are executed in the following sequence:
2-10 10 Series CNC WinPLUS - Application Manual (03)
Chapter 2
Organisation of the Machine Logic Program
As can be seen, at each cycle a different background routine is started, which means that a short
background routine is executed more often than a long one.
Referring to the example, the repeat frequency of the 3 loops will be:
$BACK 1 90 ms
$BACK 2 30 ms
$BACK 3 60 ms
The formula for calculating the frequency of a background routine is:
duration of the background routine x number of background routines x 10
IMPORTANT
In this example it is assumed, that there are no interrupts (fast inputs, OEM
softkey, requests form a part program or from the operator)

I/O PROCESSOR /SYSTEM DATA AREAS
The I/O processor and the system share a data area in the dual port memory of the I/O processor
module. This data area contains an I/O image, global retentive variables (G), system status
variables and 4 retentive tables with machine tool related data. Fig. 3-1 gives a detailed overview
of all data areas on the I/O processor, which are available to the application logic.

I/O Processor /System Data Areas
SYSTEM STATUS FLAGS
There are 500 system variables. They all have the short format. The first 20 variables (SW 00SW 19) are used to exchange some general system information between the logic program and
the system. Since the purpose of these variables is predefined, they have predefined symbolic
names. Most of the variables are read only by the logic (R/O). Only SW 03, SW4 , SW7 and SW12
can be written and read by the logic (R/W). SW Variables can be managed as words (I) or as
single bits (B) or both (B/I).:
WORD MNEMONIC TITLE ACCESS PROT
SW 00 S_CTRL Activation status B R/W
SW 01 S_SECURLEV Active security level I R/O
SW 02 S_CNINFO NC state information B R/O

SW 06 E_STOP E_STOP status B R/O
SW 07 S_DELAY_BOOT WINPLUS logic activation delay I R/W
SW 08 reserved for future use
SW 09 S_PROCSEL Selected process I R/O

The system temperature has reached 45° C.
If the temperature goes higher, the controller switches off (50° C)
This signal is only valid for systems equipped with temperature
sensors
This indicates that the axes boards are ready to receive commands
from the logic
Flag correlated to OSWire. Shows that the CNC has shifted to
TUNING modality for setup of OS3 drives.
