Preface
IMPORTANT
Introduction
This quick start provides step by step instructions for using the CNC
Machining Accelerator Toolkit to help you design, install, operate, and
maintain a CNC work cell incorporating a GuardLogix Supervisory
Controller and FANUC Series 30i-B, 31i-B, 32i-B, or 35i-B CNC System.
Included are selection tools, layout and wiring drawings, and
pre-configured logic and HMI files to assist you in creating an Integrated
Architecture™ solution for your application requirements.
All the supporting files are included on the CNC Machining Accelerator
Toolkit DVD, publication IASIMP-SP018. The DVD provides PLC and
CNC selection tools; CAD drawings for panel layout and wiring; basic
status, control, and diagnostic logic files; FactoryTalk View ME faceplates,
and more. For a copy of the DVD, contact your local Rockwell
Automation distributor or sales representative. With these tools and the
built-in best-practices design, the system designer is free to focus on the
design of their machine control and not on design overhead tasks.
You can also download these same supporting files from the
Rockwell Automation® Integrated Architecture Tools website,

Logic Configuration
In this chapter you use the preconfigured PMC logic files and edit them specifically for your application. The
toolkit provides a preconfigured PMC file with application and device modules that significantly speed-up your
application logic development. An initial I/O configuration is provided as well, as an example only.
To assist you in understanding how to best use the preconfigured logic files, the CNC Work Cell application is
used as an example in all of the logic configuration steps.
The overall machine CNC functionality and configuration is not being detailed or explained here. The CNC Machining
Accelerator Toolkit, and this quick start, provide the framework to communicate with the Rockwell Automation
GuardLogix supervisory controller.
In this example, there is a supervisory PLC that manages an entire work cell consisting of a gantry, and two machining
centers. This PMC program is for one of the machining centers, but could be used interchangeably as a starting point.
In this example, the PLC is controlling the machining centers, sending commands over the EtherNet/IP network
to the FANUC CNC devices.
68 Rockwell Automation Publication IASIMP-QS034A-EN-P - October 2012
FANUC CNC Configuration Chapter 3
The CNC architecture consists of two central processing units (CPUs), one specifically for the coordinated
machine motion (CNC), and one for the machine I/O and peripheral functions (PMC).
The CNC is the machine module in this example. It consists of proprietary software from FANUC, and is a layer
that is not accessible for modifications. FANUC provides a means to interface with a CNC by using pre-defined
system data table address registers. Refer to the FANUC documentation provided with your CNC for more
information.
Within the PMC, there are application modules and device modules. The modules are described below:
• Application Modules – The application modules execute the machine commands and provide the more
specific application commands for the CNCs functions. These modules must be defined, edited, and
completed for your specific application prior to final commissioning on a CNC machine. To complete the
proper handshaking between the PLC and CNC for the example project, these application modules have
been programmed with timers to simulate a response. Add the custom application code as necessary to
complete the programming for the specific application in these areas.
• Device Modules – The device modules translate the overall machine and application commands, and
provide uniform status and diagnostics from/to the very specific EtherNet/IP device tags. This reduces
much of the non-inventive code required to control and monitor the EtherNet/IP device.

GuardLogix Configuration
In this chapter you will use RSLogix5000 to configure your GuardLogix controller, add and configure the
FANUC CNC AOP, import preconfigured logic modules, and edit them specifically for your application. In
addition, the logic modules include control, status, and diagnostic code that provide information to
preconfigured operator interface faceplates that you can run on personal computers or PanelView Plus terminals.
Figure 8 - Logic Modules
The machine module provides a state machine model that coordinates multiple devices and application logic for
coordinated CNC applications. It provides overall machine commands, for example start, stop, abort, clear, and
reset to the application modules and the individual device modules based on the status of the applications and
devices.
The application modules execute the machine commands and provide the more specific application commands
to the CNCs and devices. They also coordinate the machine and application status, and execute the application
fault commands. In addition, the toolkit includes control logic examples to help you create your specific
application logic.
Rockwell Automation Publication IASIMP-QS034A-EN-P - October 2012 81
Chapter 4 GuardLogix Configuration
The device modules translate the uniform machine and application commands and provide uniform status and
diagnostics from the very specific device tags and parameters. This reduces much of the non-inventive code
