SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

GENERAL WARNINGS AND NOTES

WARNING

1. Before operating the machine, thoroughly check the entered data. Operating the machine with incorrect data may result in the machine behaving unexpectedly, possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or machine itself, or injury to the user.

2. Never attempt to perform a production run, such as actually machining a workpiece, without first checking the operation of the machine. a production run, ensure that the program command values, offsets, current position, external signals, and other settings are suitable for the operation to be performed. Also check that the machine operates correctly by performing a trial run using, for example, the single block,

feedrate override, or machine lock function or by operating the machine with neither a tool nor workpiece mounted.

3. Ensure that the specified feedrate is appropriate for the

intended operation. a maximum allowable feedrate. feedrate varies with the intended operation. manual provided with the machine to determine the maximum allowable feedrate. than the correct speed, it may behave unexpectedly, possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or machine itself, or injury to the user.

4. When using a tool compensation function, thoroughly check the direction and amount of compensation. Operating the machine with incorrectly specified data may result in the machine behaving unexpectedly, possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or machine itself, or injury to the user.

5. The parameters for the CNC and PMC are factory-set. Usually, there is not need to change them. When, however, there is not alternative other than to change a parameter, ensure that you fully understand the function of the parameter before making any change. Failure to set a parameter correctly may result in the machine behaving unexpectedly, possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or machine itself, or injury to the user.

WARNING

Immediately after switching on the power, do not touch any of the keys on the MDI panel until the position display or alarm screen appears on the CNC unit. Some of the keys on the MDI panel are dedicated to maintenance or other special operations.

Pressing any of these keys may cause the machine to behave unexpectedly.

The operator’s manual supplied with a CNC unit provide an overall description of the machine’s functions, including any optional functions. will vary from one machine model to another.

Note that the optional functions

Check the

specification of the machine if in doubt.

Some machine operations and screen functions may have been implemented at the request of the machinetool builder. When using such functions, refer to the manual supplied by the machine-tool builder for details of their use and any related cautions.

NOTE

1. Command programs, parameters, and variables are stored in nonvolatile memory in the CNC unit. Usually, they are retained even if the power is turned off. Such data may be deleted inadvertently, however, or it may prove necessary to delete all data from nonvolatile memory as part of error recovery.

To guard against the occurrence of the above, and assure

quick restoration of deleted data, backup all vital data, and keep the backup copy in a safe place.

CONNECTION WITH NETWORK

In this chapter, we describe the information about the

connection to the Ethernet.

CAUTION

Before connect or disconnect the cable to Data Server board, cut the power supply of CNC unit and confirm that

the power is off.

NOTE

Please inquire of each maker about the construction of network or the condition of using the equipment except the Data Server (transceiver and cable etc.) . To construct the network, it is necessary not to be influenced by the noise. Separate the network line electrically from the noise source

Procedure

How to Save Modified Data

The setting data of the Data Server are different from other CNC parameters. They are saved in the HDD. Therefore you must save the setting data by the following operation after inputting or changing these data. If you only set the data on the screen and don’t save them, then the Ethernet communication is not effected. And if you change the CNC’s screen without saving modified data, then modified data are lost. So, if you display the setting screen again, then the old data are displayed.

(1)Press the softkey [ SET ] after you finish inputting all data. (z)The blinking ‘SETTING” is displayed on the right and low

of the screen when saving modified data.

[Reference]

If the item is changed, then the name of the item is

blinking. And if you operate the above, then it becomes

normal display.

CAUTION

1 When the data are saved, the form of data is checked. If

there is a mistake in the data, the error message is displayed and no part of the data is saved into the HDD.

In this case, “SETTING ERROR” message is displayed on

the left and low of the screen. Confirm the problem by

referring to the section “1 .l 1 ERROR MESSAGE”, then set

the correct data.

2 In case of changing the setting data for Host Computer

(DATA SERVER SETTING-l), these saved data are available without turning off the power. But in case of changing the setting data for Data Server (DATA SERVER

SETTING-2), these saved data are not available before turning off the power.

3 The setting screen consists of two screens, but the setting

data are saved together. Therefore, you must save these data after setting all data in two screens.

If you save the data after setting data only in one screen, the error occurs by the reason of 1.

If you don’t save the data, the setting data aren’t available.

1.3.9

A Format of List-File

A List-File that is used by List-Get, List-Put, List-Delete

functions must be composed as follows.

% ;

OOOOl(COMMENT) ; Nlll ; N222 ; N333 ;

N999 ;

(l)The top of List-File must always be a “%“.

‘I;” means EOB(End Of Block). LF, CR-LF and LF-CR-

( CR can be used as EOB code. But use the same EOB

code in one List-File.)

(2)The next block must be an O-number. Please write the

same O-number as the file name.

And you can write a comment only latter than this O-

number up to EOB.

(3)Specify the O-number of NC program that you want to

operate. But in this case, the top of the file name “0”

must be changed into “N”.

In the above case, the NC programs of 00111, 00222,

00333,...,and 00999 are transferred or deleted in order.

On the O-number in the List-File, NC program number

shorter than 4 digits is compensated for 4 digits

automatically by the Data Server’s software.

(4)The end of List-File must always be a “Oh”.

These List-Get, List-Put and List-Delete functions are useful

for managing NC programs as a group.

And the place where the List-File is prepared is different

according to each function. In case of the List-Get function, the List-File is prepared in the Host Computer because the NC programs that you want

to transfer exist in the Host Computer.

In case of List-Put and List-Delete functions, the List-File is prepared in the HDD because the NC programs that you want to transfer or delete exist in the HDD.

A Format of NC Program

A format of NC program prepared in the Host Computer obeys the format described in the CNC’s manual.

Describe it briefly as follows.

OPERATION

% TITLE ;

00001 (COMMENT) ;

M30 ;

B-62694ENi03

(l)The top of NC program must be “%“(Tape start).

And if necessary, you can enter a comment up to first EOB code(Program start).

(2)Tbe next block is an O-number.

When you register this NC program into the HDD, please surely name the same O-number as the file name. If the O-number in the NC program is different from the

O-number of the file name, the O-number of the file

name will be used.

(3)“;” placed on the end of each line means EOB (End Of

Block). This EOB code is LF(hexadecima1 code:OA) or LF-CR-CR

(hexadecimal code:OA-OD-OD).

(4)The end of NC program always must end with a “M-

code ; %“.

(5)If you want to operate “binary input operation”, please

insert binary data for “binary input operation” in “:” parts of the above figure. About the detail of “binary input operation”, please refer to the each CNC’s operator’s manual.

WARNING

If you prepare the NC program contrary to the above format in the Host Computer, the CNC may run unexpectly when this NC program is running. So, you prepare the NC program in the Host Computer most carefully.

CALLING A SUBPROGRAM WITH Ml98

When the subprogram is called by Ml98 code in main program stored in the memory of CNC, the CNC reads the

subprogram from the HDD.

NOTE

You must set “5” on the NC parameter of I/O Channel

(No.0020) in order to use this function.

You can not execute this function together with “1.5

REGISTERING A NC PROGRAM”, “1.6 OUTPUTTING A
