OPERATING PRECAUTIONS Safety Precautions This NC equipment is provided with various safety interlocks to protect men and machinery from unexpected accidents and machine failures. Those who are to operate the NC equipment, however, should strictly observe the following precautions without relying completely on such safety interlocks: 1. Carefully read the operating manuals and the programming manual to obtain a through understanding of the functions of the NC equipment, and to operate the equipment correctly. 2. After turning on the power switch on the operating panel, do not carry out any other operations before the l READY (ready for operation) lamp comes on. 3. Immediately turn off the main circuit breaker in the event of a power failure. 4. Before actuating a key or switch on the operating panel, be sure to make a visual check to ensure that the key or switch is the correct one. 5. Do not touch any keys or switches with wet hands or with gloves being worn. 6. Before changing a parameter, make sure of its type and value. 7. Parameters are one of the most important factors in providing proper control of the machines. A machine malfunction may result from tampering with a parameter setting key or switch. To Ensure Smooth Operation Always keep the following in mind to ensure smooth operation. 1. Before connecting or disconnecting the transmission cable of the terminal equipment for data I/O to or from the NC equipment, be sure to unplug the power cable of the terminal equipment from the receptable. 2. If the power of the NC equipment is remained off for over about two months, or if it no longer becomes possible for the battery to back up the power because of the expiry of the battery life, erroneous operations, or other contingencies, stored data such as programs, parameters, etc. may be erased. You should therefore save the entire necessary machining program data, tool data, and parameter data into external output units. Also, beware that in the following cases, it becomes necessary to reload data such as machining program data: (1) If battery alarms occur (2) If the CPU card is replaced

3

(3) If the memory card containing the machining programs is replaced See section 4-9 DATA IN/OUT Display for data saving procedures. Note: The contents of the memory must be deleted to expand the machining program data capacity. Reloading of the machining program data and other data is also required in that case. 3. - If the NC power is to be left turned off for a long period, remove the lead storage battery (or disconnect the recharger from the load) and store the battery or recharger in a cold, dry place. They do not need be stored into a refrigerator, however. - During the storage period, recharge the battery at least once every six months. - Beware that the battery deteriorates even during the storage period. - If the storage battery is to be stored for an extended period, fully recharge the battery and store it in a dry, cold place (temperatures from 20 to +40 degrees C).

Of the menu, the TEACH, TOOL ASSIGN, and T-DATA MOVE menu items have already been described. (See screen operations 2., 3., and 4., respectively.) The functions and usage of the other menu data indicated on the TOOL DATA display are described below. In the description given below, it is to be assumed that the TOOL DATA display is already on the screen and that menu the menu display area.

is currently being displayed in

(1) INCR. INCR. (Incremental) can be used only when changing the data that has been input to the ACT-z or LENGTH item on the TOOL DATA display. After the menu key INCR. has been pressed, the data that has already been input can be overridden simply by keying-in the increment (or decrement) that is appropriate to that data. [1] Assume that the cursor already remains in a blinking state in the position of the ACT-z or LENGTH item. [2] Press the menu key INCR. - This will cause the display status of INCR. to reverse and the message LENGTH TO ADD? to present. [3] Using the numeric keys, specify the increment (or decrement) that corresponds to the data already input. After that, press the input key

.

1) To change the ACT-z data of the end-mill from 10 mm (0.39 in) to 10.02 ,

mm (0.39 in), first press the menu key INCR. and then press the ,

, and

keys, in that order.

2) To change the ACT-z data of the end-mill from 10 mm (0.39 in) to 9.9 ,

mm (0.39 in), first press the menu key INCR. and then press the ,

, and

keys in this order.

- The results of the addition (or subtraction) will then be displayed. - In addition, the reverse-display status of INCR. will be released automatically. Note: INCR. is quite useful for correcting tool data if a work has been overcut or undercut during a machining operation. (2) TOOL SEARCH This menu item should be used to search for a tool name that is registered on the TOOL DATA display. [1] Press the menu key TOOL SEARCH. - This will cause the message TOOL NAME TO SEARCH ? to display and, in the menu display area, the following menu to present: ENDMILL FACEMILL

This shows that the tool name to be searched for is registered under pocket number 4. [4] If the input key

is pressed following this, the NC equipment will check

whether the corresponding tool name exists in subsequent lines to that in which the cursor is blinking. - If the corresponding tool name exists, the cursor will move to the TOOL item of that tool. - If the corresponding tool name does not exist, the alarm message 407 RELEVANT DATA NOT FOUND will be displayed. Note: It is also possible to search for the corresponding tool name just by specifying TOOL item. In this case, press only the input key

in procedural step [3]

Tool data“GROUP NO. ASSIGNMENT” (Option) 1. Overview The tool data option “GROUP NO. ASSIGNMENT” allows you to assign group numbers and ID (identification) numbers to your MAZATROL tool data. With this option, you can perform EIA/ISO program tool selection and tool life management using the MAZATROL tool data. Selection of the data of the TOOL LIFE INDEX display or the data of the TOOL DATA display can be made using a parameter. 2.

Screen display (TOOL DATA display) Group numbers (GROUP NO.) and ID numbers (ID NO.) are displayed in the same position as that of tool name (TOOL) and nominal diameter (NOM-z) display. Use menu keys to select between EIA/ISO data display and MAZATROL data display.

TOOL DATA display 3. Description of group numbers and ID numbers (1) Group number (GROUP NO.) Description: A group number identifies a tool group. Tools with the same number as a group number are handled as spare tools of that group number. Setting range: Eight decimal digits (0 to 99999999) (2) ID number (ID NO.) Description: An ID number identifies a tool. Use ID numbers for machines having a tool identification feature. (For machines not having a tool identification feature, ID numbers become insignificant. In this case, these numbers can be used to identify tools.) Setting range: There are the following two ranges of ID number setting. Which is to be applied depends on the type of tool ID: 1) Eight decimal digits (0 to 99999999) 2) Seven hexadecimal digits (0 to FFFFFFF) Use method 2) for machines not having a tool identification feature.

TOOL DATA display “TNO. 3” is selected.

Program T01T00M06;

(3) Tool offsetting If tool management using the TOOL DATA display is selected (by setting bit 7 of user parameter F94 to “0”), the following user parameters must be set to make tool diameter (ACT-z) and length (LENGTH) offset data valid: (See the Programming manual for MAZATROL M-32 EIA/ISO for further details.) User parameter F92, bit 7 User parameter F93, bit 3 User parameter F94, bit 2

1: Tool diameter data (ACT-z) is made valid. 1: Length data (LENGTH) is made valid. 1: Length (LENGTH) offset data is not cancelled by execution of a reference-point return command.

Note: During offsetting based on the tool diameter and length data of the TOOL DATA display, these two types of data will be added to tool diameter and length offset data you are to set in the program using commands G41 to G44. Example: For tool length offsetting, if you set: G43Z0. H01; Length = 100., H01 = 50. then the offset data becomes 150. 6. Precautions Tool life management (spare tool search) is not performed for tool path check. 4-6-2

Tool data “INVALIDATION” (Option) 1. Overview “INVALIDATION” is an option that makes registered tool data on the TOOL DATA display invalid before the program is executed. On the invalidated tool data line, tool names (TOOL) and nominal diameters (NOM-z), (and as data options, group numbers (GROUP NO.) and ID numbers (ID NO.)) are highlighted purple for distinction from valid tool data. Using this option, you can select tools from all those of the same type or set the tools not to be used without deleting the tool data before executing the program.

(1) When automatic operation is selected The machine action differs as follows between MAZATROL program automatic operation and EIA/ISO program automatic operation: 1) MAZATROL program operation Invalid tools are excluded from a list of usable tools. An alarm 626 NO TOOL IN MAGAZINE will be displayed if an alternative, usable tool of the same type is not present. 2) EIA/ISO program operation The MAZATROL tool data invalidation option is inoperative for automatic operation using EIA/ISO programs, since the option normally operates independently of MAZATROL tool data. Only if MAZATROL tool length and diameter offset data is valid, however, does this option become operative. In this case, if the MAZATROL tool data of the selected tool number is invalid, operation will stop with the display of an alarm 653 ILLEGAL TOOL DESIGNATED after tool change has been done.

MAZATROL tool data — If MAZATROL tool length and diameter offset data is valid (that is, if tool

diameter data is made valid using bit 7 of user parameter F92 and tool length data is made valid using bit 3 of user parameter F93): Operation will stop with the display of an alarm 653 ILLEGAL TOOL DESIGNATED. “ If MAZATROL tool length and diameter offset data is invalid: Normal operation continues. Note: Operation will also stop with an alarm display, if a block that contains a command for tool change with an invalid tool is found during EIA/ISO search associated with restart. (2) When tool path check is to be performed The machine action differs as follows between tool path check using a MAZATROL program and tool path check using an EIA/ISO program: 1) During tool path check using a MAZATROL program Invalid tools are not selected. If an alternative, usable tool of the same type is not present, a tool path will be drawn in the absence of a tool (diameter offsetting will use the tool nominal diameter data existing in the program). 2) During tool path check using an EIA/ISO program The machine act becomes similar to that existing during automatic operation.

EIA/ISO data display mode

(2) Machine action When the MAZATROL tool data option “GROUP NO. ASSIGNMENT” is used, tool commands in an EIA/ISO program are executed according to the group number data of the MAZATROL tool data display. The machine action during automatic operation (or tool path check) based on an EIA/ISO program, therefore, differs from that occurring with the tool data option “GROUP NO. ASSIGNMENT” not being used. The machine acts as follows according to the particular method of selecting tools: 1) Group number scheme (User parameter F94, bit 4 = 0) - The machine will stop with the display of an alarm 653 ILLEGAL TOOL DESIGNATED if the tools of the selected group number are all invalid ones. - If the tools of the selected group number include valid ones (life-expired or broken tools included), then these valid tools will be searched for a spare tool. 2) Tool number scheme (User parameter F92, bit 4 = 1) - When the tool of the selected tool number is invalid: — If a group number has been set, a spare tool search will be made

using that group number. The machine action after the search has been made is the same as that described for the group number scheme above. “ If a group number has not been set, an alarm 653 ILLEGAL TOOL DESIGNATED will result. Examples of action: TNO.GROUP NO. ID NO. 1

TOOL LAYOUT Display Function: - This display should be called on the screen when assigning pocket numbers to the tools to be used for machining. (The operation of assigning pocket numbers to the tools to be used is referred to as tool layout.) - This display consists of two subdisplays: a CURRENT display (left half of the screen display) and a NEXT display (right half of the screen display). The CURRENT display indicates the names and nominal diameters of the tools which already are each assigned a pocket number. That is, the CURRENT display indicates the same status of tool registration as with the TOOL DATA display. The NEXT display indicates the names and nominal diameters of all the tools necessary to execute the specified machining program. - A tool name(s) that has already been registered can be erased on the CURRENT display. - The two component display can be used only when executing a MAZATROL program.

Display operations: 1. Tool layout procedure To execute a machining program, the tools necessary for machining must be mounted in each pocket of a tool drum in advance. The operation of assigning pocket numbers to the tools to be used for machining is referred to as tool layout, and its operating procedure is described below. [1] First, call up the TOOL LAYOUT display on the screen. - The names and nominal diameters of the tools which have already been registered will be indicated on the CURRENT display. (No display will be presented if no tools have been registered.) - After that, the following menu will be indicated in the menu display area: WORK NO. DRUM NO.

This will have already been placed in a reverse-display status by the time that the display is called on the screen.

- The message WORKPIECE PROGRAM NUMBER? will be displayed. [2] Using the appropriate numeric key(s), specify the workpiece number of the machining program to be executed. Then, press the input key

.

Example: When laying out the tools to be used under the program whose workpiece number is 123: Press the

,

,

, and

keys, in this order.

- This will cause the reverse-display status of WORK NO. to clear and the input workpiece number to display in the WORK NO. item (data portion ‘). - The names and nominal diameters of all the tools to be used under the program whose workpiece number has been input will be indicated on the NEXT display. Under the PKNO. item, 0 will be displayed for any tool name. - The message PKNO. SHIFT OR ASSIGN ? will be displayed.

4-73

[3] Subsequent operations differ according to several factors such as the registration status of the tools which are already registered on the CURRENT display. However, separate or combined use of the three methods described below makes it possible in any cases to assign pocket numbers to all the tools to be used. Select the most appropriate method according to the particular toolregistration or other status. (A) Pocket-number shift (B) Automatic pocket-number assignment (C) Manual pocket-number assignment (A) Pocket-number shift If there are the same tools as those which are already registered on the CURRENT display among the tools being indicated on the NEXT display then, it is no longer necessary to assign pocket numbers to such tools. That is, the pocket numbers that have already been assigned can be shifted as they are. This method is referred to as pocket-number shift. Once a pocket-number shift operation has been carried out, it suffices just to assign pocket numbers to the tools for which no shift operations have been carried out. Use of this method allows prevention of reassignment of different pocket numbers to a tool or of the same pocket number to more than one tool. It will also save time in assignment. [A-1] Press the menu key PKNO. SHIFT. - This will cause the display status of PKNO. SHIFT to reverse and the message POCKET NO. SHIFT ? to present.

[A-2] Press the input key

.

- If there are the same tools as those which are already registered on the CURRENT display among the tools being indicated on the NEXT display, then the pocket numbers already assigned under PKNO. of the corresponding tool names on the NEXT display will shift automatically and will be indicated in reverse form. Example: If the following data is displayed when the workpiece number of a machining program has been input in the procedural step [2] above: CURRENT

The pocket numbers on the CURRENT display will shift automatically and their display status will be reversed. - Subsequently, the reverse-display status of PKNO. SHIFT will be cleared. Note: In the above example, when pocket numbers are assigned to all the remaining tools (that is, a spot drill with a nominal diameter of 20 mm (0.79 in), a drill with a nominal diameter of 10 mm (0.39 in), and a drill with a nominal diameter of 7 mm (0.28 in)) by method (B) or (C) described below, the pocket-number assignment procedure for all the tools will be completed. (B) Automatic pocket-number assignment This method is one in which, among the tool names being displayed on the NEXT display, all those with pocket numbers of 0 (undetermined) are automatically assigned serial pocket numbers, starting with the top tool name on the display first. [B-1] Press the menu key PKNO. ASSIGN. - This will cause the display status of PKNO. ASSIGN to reverse and the message POCKET NO. ASSIGN ? to present.

DATA IN/OUT Display Function: The DATA IN/OUT display is used to transfer the data prestored within the NC equipment to an external unit or to transfer the data prestored within an external unit to the NC equipment. In the MAZATROL M-32, three types of DATA IN/OUT displays are available according to the external unit to or from which data is to be transferred. 1. DATA IN/OUT (CMT) display This display should be called when transferring data between the NC equipment and a cassette tape unit or a microdisk unit. 2. DATA IN/OUT (DNC) display (Option) This display should be called when transferring data between the NC equipment and a host CPU (central processing unit) or external NC equipment. 3. DATA IN/OUT (TAPE) display This display should be called when transferring data between the NC equipment and a tape reader/puncher or a microdisk unit.

4-87

Note: In this manual, the procedure for data transfer between the NC equipment and a microdisk unit is not described. For details of this procedure, refer to the Operating manual that accompanies your microdisk unit.

[5] Press the menu key START. - The display status of START will reverse and data comparison will begin. - The cursor will blink in the position of the data being compared. - When the reverse-display status of START is released, this indicates coincidence between the two sets of data that have been compared. - If an error has been found to exist in the data being compared, the alarm message DATA ARE NOT COINCIDENT will be displayed and the comparison operation aborted. That is, the data in the position where the cursor is blinking is different from the data prestored within the NC equipment. 4. Precautions on LOAD, SAVE, and COMPARE operations: (1) The maximum number of programs that can be transferred at one time is 16. (2) In the procedural step [4] of a LOAD operation, the alarm message 433 SAME PROGRAM IS DESIGNATED may be displayed if the same workpiece number as that prestored within the NC equipment is designated. If this is the case, then the workpiece number prestored within the NC equipment must be changed. (See the description of “Changing a workpiece number” (screen operation 1.) in PROGRAM FILE display, section 4-4-2.) However, even if the workpiece number of the program to be loaded agrees with that of a program existing in the memory of the NC equipment, the alarm mentioned above will not occur when the value of bit 1 of parameter G9 is 1. In this case, the corresponding program within the NC equipment will be erased and the loaded program will be registered under that workpiece number. Before executing this function, therefore, check if the corresponding program within the NC equipment is an unnecessary one. (Execution of this function erases the program within the NC equipment first.) (3) Data transfer will not be interrupted even if the display is changed over to another after data transfer has started. Modifying the data being transferred, however, is not possible. 5. The entire data that has been input can be erased using the following procedure:

4-94

[1] Press the menu key INPUT CANCEL. - The message ERASE ? will then be displayed. . [2] Press the input key - Values in all parentheses will become 0. This procedure is therefore useful when re-designating the data to be transferred. 6. How to abort data transfer Proceed as follows to abort the particular data transfer operation: [1] Press the menu selector key (green key located to the right of the menu keys) to display the following menu on the screen: CMT

- If the DATA IN/OUT display is on the screen, depression of the menu selector key once or twice causes this menu to present. [2] Press the menu key I/O STOP. - The data transfer operation will then be aborted. If data transfer has been aborted, the transfer operation cannot be restarted from that program position; it must be restarted from the beginning by repeating the LOAD, SAVE, or COMPARE operation. 7. DIRECTORY operation In order to check what type of data is preserved on a cassette tape, the data can be indicated on the DATA IN/OUT (CMT) display. The operating procedure is described below. [1] Set onto the cassette deck the cassette tape whose data is to be checked. [2] Call up the DATA IN/OUT (CMT) display on the screen. [3] Press the menu key DIRECT CMT Æ NC. [4] Press the menu key START. - The display status of START will reverse and the data recorded on the cassette tape will be indicated in parentheses on the display. - After display of the entire data, the reverse-display status of START will be released.

4-95

Notes: 1. The maximum number of programs whose contents can be indicated at one time is 16. 2. A LOAD or COMPARE operation can be carried out after the data recorded on a cassette tape has been indicated on the DATA IN/OUT (CMT) display by a DIRECTORY operation. Therefore, this method becomes effective especially when loading or comparing the entire data recorded on a cassette tape. Example 1: When loading the entire data that has been indicated on the DATA IN/OUT (CMT) display by a DIRECTORY operation: [1] Press the menu key LOAD CMT Æ NC. [2] Press the menu key START. - The entire data being indicated on the DATA IN/OUT (CMT) display will then be transferred to the NC equipment. Example 2: When loading a part of the data which has been indicated on the DATA IN/OUT (CMT) display by a DIRECTORY operation: [1] Press the menu key LOAD CMT Æ NC. [2] Move the cursor to the position in which data that is not to be loaded is being displayed. [3] Specify 0 with the appropriate numeric key, and then press the input key

.

[4] Press the menu key START. - All data will then be transferred to the NC equipment, with the exception of 0 that has been input in procedural step [2] and [3] above. Use of a similar procedure to that of example 1 or example 2 above makes it possible to carry out a COMPARE operation on all or part of the data which is currently being indicated on the DATA IN/OUT (CMT) display. 8. Functions of other menu data The left half portion of the DATA IN/OUT (CMT) display indicates workpiece numbers and other data of the programs prestored within the NC equipment. - Pressing the menu key NEXT PAGE changes the current page of the display in this portion over to the next page. - Pressing the menu key PREVIOUS PAGE changes the current page of the display in this portion over to the preceding page.

Precautions on LOAD and SAVE operations: (1) The maximum number of programs whose contents can be transferred at one time is 16. However, a larger volume of data than the memory capacity of the source device cannot be transferred. (2) If the programs to be transferred include programs whose workpiece numbers overlap those of the program prestored within the memory of the destination device, then such programs cannot be transferred. In such cases, change the workpiece number of the program prestored within the memory of either one of the two devices. (See the description of screen operation 1. in section 4-4-2 PROGRAM FILE display.) Similarly, if the data to be transferred includes values that are assigned the same file number as the data prestored within the memory of the destination device, then those values cannot be transferred.

(4) The left half portion of the DATA IN/OUT (TAPE) display indicates workpiece numbers and other data of the programs prestored within the NC equipment. Pressing the menu key NEXT PAGE changes the current page of the display in this portion over to the next page. Pressing the menu key PREVIOUS PAGE changes the current page of the display in this portion over to the preceding page. (5) During step [4] of LOAD operation, when the value of bit 1 of parameter G9 is 1, alarm will not occur even if the workpiece number of the program to be loaded agrees with that of a program existing in the memory of the NC equipment. In this case, the corresponding program within the NC equipment will be erased and the loaded program will be registered under that workpiece number. Before executing this function, therefore, check if the corresponding program within the NC equipment is an unnecessary one. (Execution of this function erases the program within the NC equipment first.) (6) During ALL LOAD operation, the alarm message 536 SAME PROGRAM APPOINT may be displayed if the same workpiece number as that prestored within the NC equipment is designated. If this is the case, then the workpiece number prestored within the NC equipment must be changed. (See the description of “Changing a workpiece number” (screen operation 1.) in PROGRAM FILE display, section 4-4-2.) However, even if the work number of the program to be loaded agrees with that of a program existing in the memory of the NC equipment, the alarm mentioned above will not occur when the value of bit 1 of parameter G9 is 1. In this case, the corresponding program within the NC equipment will be erased and the loaded program will be registered under that workpiece number. Before executing this function, therefore, check if the corresponding program within the NC equipment is an unnecessary one. (Execution of this function erases the program within the NC equipment first).

Use of the TEACH function of the display makes it possible to automatically set the coordinate values, in the machine coordinate system, of the zero-point of each workpiece coordinate system (G54 to G59) that is to be used under an EIA/ISO program. The operating procedures are as follows: 1. Setting X-Coordinate values [1] Manually move the X-axis until the tool comes into contact with the workpiece or reference block. Example: If the workpiece zero-point is at the position shown below: Coordinate position

Machine zero-point

Workpiece zero-point Procedural step [1]

+Z

Workpiece +X 5

Distance to the work zero-point (Radius of the tool) M3S035

- See the Operating manual for machine for details of axis movement. [2] Call up the WORK OFFSET DATA display on the screen. - This will cause the following menu to display in the menu display area: TEACH

INCR.

[3] Call up the cursor on the screen, and then move it to the position of X in the workpiece coordinate system to be set. - If the cursor key

or

is pressed, the cursor will appear in the

position of X of the G54 item. - If the cursor key

or

is pressed, the cursor will appear in the

position of 4 of the G59 item.

4-120

[4] Press the menu key TEACH. - This will cause the display status of TEACH to reverse and the message EDGE CENTER POSITION IN WORK? to present. [5] Using the appropriate numeric key(s), specify the distance from the centerline of the tool (coordinate position) to the workpiece zero-point. Then, press the input key

.

- Normally, the radius of the tool is to be input. In the example shown above, however, the radius must be input with a plus sign because the workpiece zero-point is in the plus direction from the coordinate position. That is, press the

and

keys, in that order.

- The NC equipment will then calculate the X-coordinate values of the workpiece zero-point in the machine coordinate system, and the calculated values will be automatically set in the position where the cursor was blinking. - Subsequently, the reverse-display status of TEACH will be released. 2. Setting Y-coordinate values and Z-coordinate values The Y-coordinate values and Z-coordinate values can be automatically set using a similar procedure to that mentioned above. For the Z-axis, however, the distance from the tool tip to the workpiece zeropoint is to be set in procedural step [5]. Note: Use of INCR. allows the coordinate values of the workpiece zero-point already registered to be changed simply by setting an increment (or decrement). For further details, see the description of INCR. (screen operation 5.-(1)) that is given in section 4-6 TOOL DATA Display.

MACRO VARIABLE display Function: This display should be called on the screen when setting data for the macro variable(s) that is to be used in a user macro program. There are two types of macro variables: common variables that can be used in common to the main program and macro programs called from it, and local variables that can be used only in macro programs. The MACRO VARIABLE display consists of the following four sections: 1. COMMON VARIABLE display The common variables that have been set on this display are used when executing a user macro program in the automatic-operation mode. 2. COMMON VARIABLE (CHECK) display The common variables that have been set on this display are used when carrying out a tool-path check. 3. LOCAL VARIABLE display The local variables that have been set on this display are used when executing a user macro program in the automatic-operation mode. 4. LOCAL VARIABLE (CHECK) display The local variables that have been set on this display are used when carrying out a tool-path check. Note: The LOCAL VARIABLE display and the LOCAL VARIABLE (CHECK) display present an indication of the variables that have been set thereon; neither display allows variables to be changed. For details of user macro programs, refer to the separate EIA/ISO Programming manual. Procedure for calling up each display: When the MACRO VARIABLE display is called up on the screen, the COMMON VARIABLE display will be indicated automatically. In the menu display area, the following menu will be displayed: COMMON

Notes: 1. Either a tool-length compensation number or a tool-length compensation value can be set for one tool. 2. Either a tool-diameter compensation number or a tool-diameter compensation value can be set for one tool. Display operations: The TOOL LIFE INDEX display is used to set three types of data: tool group numbers, tool compensation data, and tool-life control data. 1. Setting tool group numbers

[1] Call up the cursor on the screen by pressing the cursor key - If the key

or

.

is pressed, the cursor will appear in the uppermost position of

the GROUP NO. item on the screen. - If the key

is pressed, the cursor will appear in the lowermost position of

the GROUP NO. item on the screen.

[2] Press the cursor key

or

to move the cursor to the GROUP NO.

item line on which data is to be set. - The message SAME TOOL GROUP NO.? will then be displayed.

[3] Input a tool group number and then press the input key

.

- Any number from 0 to 99999999 can be input as a tool group number. However, if the particular tool has the same shape and same dimensions as those of a tool already registered, then the same group number must be input to register the former tool as a spare for the latter. - The input number will be displayed on the selected line of the GROUP NO. item. After each of the tools to be used with an EIA/ISO program has been assigned a group number in this manner, the spare tool to be next used is automatically selected from among the tools assigned the same group number. There are two methods of spare-tool selection, as described below. Thus, one of the two methods must be specified before automatic spare-tool selection can be executed.

4-127

(1) Selection in order of tool registration number (when 0 is set in bit 5 of parameter F94): If 0 is set in bit 5 of parameter F94 which appears on the USER PARAMETER NO.1 display, tools that have neither reached their lives nor have become damaged will be automatically selected in descending order of tool number from among the tools assigned the same group number. (If all the tools with the same group number have reached their lives or have become damaged, then the tool with the largest tool number among all those tools that have reached their lives will be selected. Or, if all the tools with the same group number have become damaged, then the tool with the largest tool number will be selected.) (2) Selection in order of length of life (when 1 is set in bit 5 of parameter F94): If 1 is set in bit 5 of parameter F94 which appears on the USER PARAMETER NO.1 display, the tool that has the least operation time will be automatically selected from among the tools assigned the same group number. If there are two or more tools that have the same operation time, the tool with the smallest tool number among those tools will be selected. (If all tools with the same group number have reached their lives or have become damaged, then the tool with the largest tool number among all those tools that have reached their lives will be selected. Or, if all the tools with the same group number have become damaged, then the tool with the largest tool number will be selected.) In addition, there are two methods of setting tool numbers during use of a program—group number setting and individual tool number setting. These two methods of tool number setting are described in detail below, together with the toollife filing and spare-tool changing manners. (1) Designation by means of the group number (when bit 4 of parameter F94 is set to 0): When 0 is entered in bit 4 of parameter F94 displayed on the USER PARAMETER NO. 1 display, the command number T in the program will be considered as the group number and the spare tool will be selected according to the group number recorded on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display. (If there are several tools with the same group number, the spare tool will be selected according to the selection types mentioned above.) (2) Designation by means of the tool number (when bit 4 of parameter F94 is set to 1): When 1 is entered in bit 4 of parameter F94 displayed on the USER PARAMETER NO. 1 display, the command number T in the program will be considered as the tool number and the spare tool will be selected accroding to the tool number recorded on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display. (If there are several tools with the same group number, the spare tool will be selected according to the selection types mentioned above.)

Tool command number T01 that has been specified in the program is handled as GROUP NO.1, and an automatic search is made for the TNOs to which GROUP NO.1 has been assigned on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display. In the example shown in the diagram above, there are two such TNOs—TNO.2 and TNO.3. However, since TNO.2 is for the tool that has reached its life, TNO.3 will be selected. Example 2: Individual tool number setting Program T01

Tool command number T01 that has been specified in the program is handled as TNO. 1, and the TOOL LIFE INDEX display is searched for TNO.1. The above example shows that TNO. 1 on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display is for the tool that has reached its life. Thus, TNO. 4, which has the same group number as that of TNO. 1, will be automatically selected instead.

2. Setting tool-compensation data Tool-length compensation data and tool-diameter compensation data for the individual tools which are to be used with an EIA/ISO program can be set on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display. There are two methods of setting the two types of data. One method is by using the compensation numbers that correspond to the offset values which have been set on the TOOL OFFSET display, and the other method is by setting the desired offset values directly.

4-129

(1) When using compensation numbers: The procedures for setting tool-length compensation data and tool-diameter compensation data using compensation numbers are described below. The descriptions given below assume that the cursor is already called on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display.

[1] Using the cursor keys (

,

,

,

), move the cursor to that line

of the H.NO. item on which data is to be set. - The message OFFSET H.NO.? will then be displayed. [2] Input the appropriate compensation number for the particular offset value, and then press the input key

.

- If the relationship between each offset value and compensation number is to be checked, call the TOOL OFFSET display on the screen by pressing the menu key TOOL OFFSET. - The input compensation number will be displayed in the H.NO. item position, and the cursor will move on to the D NO. item. - Subsequently, the message OFFSET D NO.? will be displayed. [3] Input the appropriate compensation number for the particular offset value, and then press the input key . - If the relationship between each offset value and compensation number is to be checked, call the TOOL OFFSET display on the screen by pressing the menu key TOOL OFFSET. - The input compensation number will be displayed in the D NO. item position. If compensation numbers are set on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display using this method, these numbers take priority over any such number settings in the program. Example: Program Tool-length compensation number

H1 ;

Tool-diameter compensation

D2 ;

TOOL OFFSET display TNO. 1

OFFSET 10.1

2 3 4

10.2 10.3 10.4

T01T0M06;

For execution of the EIA/ISO program shown above: If the following values are set in the H.NO. and D NO. items on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display;

4-130

TOOL LIFE INDEX display TNO. 1

GROUP NO. 1

2

2

H.NO. 3

D NO. 4

OFFSET D LIFE (M) 0

TIME (M) 0

then the program will be executed with the tool-length compensation value (No.3= 10.3) and tool-diameter compensation value (No.4 = 10.4) that have been set on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display, not with the tool-length compensation value (H1= 10.1) and tool-diameter compensation value (D2 = 10.2) that have been specified in the program. (2) Direct setting of compensation data: The procedures for setting tool-length compensation data and tool-diameter compensation data directly are described below.

[1] Using the cursor keys (

,

,

,

), move the cursor to that line

of the OFFSET H item on which data is to be set. - The message TOOL LENGTH REVISE? will then be displayed.

[2] Input appropriate compensation data and then press the input key

.

- If changes are to be made to tool-length data that are already set, the old data can be overridden with new data simply by setting increments (or decrements) through the use of INCR. For usage of INCR., see the description INCR. that is given in item 5.-(1), screen operations, of section 46 TOOL DATA Display. - The input compensation data will be displayed in the OFFSET H item position, and the cursor will move on to the OFFSET D item. - Subsequently, the message TOOL DIAMETER REVISE? will be displayed.

[3] Input appropriate compensation data and then press the input key

.

- If changes are to be made to tool-diameter data that are already set, the old data can be overridden with new data simply by setting increments (or decrements) through the use of INCR. For usage of INCR., see the description INCR. that is given in item 5.-(1), screen operations, of section 46 TOOL DATA Display. - The input compensation data will be displayed in the OFFSET D item position.

4-131

If compensation values are set on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display using this method, these values take priority over any such value settings in the program. Example: TOOL OFFSET display

Program Tool-length compensation number Tool-diameter compensation number

H1 ;

TNO. 1 2

OFFSET 10.1 10.2

3 4

10.3 10.4

D2 ; T01T0M06;

For execution of the EIA/ISO program shown above: If the following values are set in the OFFSET H and OFFSET D items on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display: TOOL LIFE INDEX display GROUP NO.

D NO.

OFFSET H 10.5

OFFSET D LIFE (M) 10.6

TIME (M) 0 aaaaaaaa aaaaaaaa

TNO.

61

then the program will be executed with the tool-length compensation value (10.5) and tool-diameter compensation value (10.6) that have been set on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display, not with the tool-length compensation value (H1 = 10.1) and tool-diameter compensation value (D2 = 10.2) that have been specified in the program. Notes: 1. Data can be set in either the H.NO. item or the OFFSET H item for one tool. 2. Data can be set in either the D NO. item or the OFFSET D item for one tool. 3. If tool compensation data is not set on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display, the compensation values that correspond to the compensation numbers specified in the program become valid.

3. Setting tool-life control data The procedure for setting tool-life control data on the TOOL LIFE INDEX display is described below. [1] Using the cursor keys (

,

,

,

), move the cursor to that line

of the LIFE (M) item on which data is to be set. - The message TOOL LIFE (MIN)? will then be displayed. [2] Input the tool life (maximum available cutting time) in minutes with the numeric keys, and then press the input key

.

- The input value will be displayed in the LIFE (M) item. - At the same time, this value will also be set in the LIFE (M) item of the corresponding tool number line on the TOOL DATA display. (If no tool data is registered in this tool number line, this value will not be set.)

4-132

Example: TOOL LIFE INDEX display TNO. 1 2 3

LIFE (M)

TIME (M)

0

0

TOOL DATA display TNO. 1

LIFE (M) 0

2 3

60

When 60, for example, is input,

TIME (M) 0

60

the same value will be set automatically.

- The cursor will subsequently move on the TIME (M) item, and the message TOOL CUTTING TIME (MIN)? will be displayed. Note: If data is not set in the LIFE (M) item for a tool (setting data 0 has been remained), then the life information of that tool cannot be controlled automatically. [3] Input the tool operation time (cumulative cutting-feed time) in minutes with the numeric keys, and then press the input key

.

- The input value will be displayed in the TIME (M) item. - At the same time, this value will also be set in the TIME (M) item of the corresponding tool number line on the TOOL DATA display if a tool has already been registered under the corresponding tool number on the TOOL DATA display. (If not, this value will not be set.) Example: TOOL LIFE INDEX display TNO. 1 2 3

LIFE (M) 0 60

TIME (M) 0 5

TOOL DATA display TNO. 1 2

LIFE (M) 0 60

TIME (M) 0 5

3

When 5, for example, is input,

the same value will be set automatically.

- This data need not to be set for an unused tool. (0 is initially set in the TIME (M) item.) - Each time a tool is used for a cutting-feed operation, the tool operation time will be integrated in minutes. - When the operation time reaches the life data set in procedural step [2] above, the display of the data settings in the TIME (M) item will be reversed.

4-133

Note: On tool-life control during execution of MAZATROL and EIA/ISO programs: (1) MAZATROL program During execution of a MAZATROL program, although the data settings in the TIME (M) item of the TOOL DATA display are integrated, those in the TIME (M) item of the TOOL LIFE INDEX display are not integrated. (2) EIA/ISO program During execution of an EIA/ISO program, the data settings in the TIME (M) item of the TOOL LIFE INDEX display are integrated. In addition, the data settings in the TIME (M) item of the TOOL DATA display are also integrated if 1 has been set in parameter F67. (3) MAZATROL and EIA/ISO program In combined use of MAZATROL and EIA/ISO programs as shown in the diagram below, the data settings in the TIME (M) item of the TOOL DATA display are integrated while the MAZATROL program is being executed, and the data settings in the TIME (M) item of the TOOL LIFE INDEX display are integrated while the EIA/ISO program is being executed. If, however, 1 has been set in parameter F67, integration of the data settings in the TIME (M) item of the TOOL DATA display will also occur even during execution of the EIA/ISO program. (1)

4. Erasing the registered tool data The data that has been registered using methods 1., 2. and 3. above can be erased for each tool. In addition, all sets of tool data that have been registered can be erased at one time if required. The procedures for erasing the tool data on a tool basis and for erasing all sets of tool data are described below. (1) Erasing the tool data on a tool basis [1] By pressing the cursor key

or

, move the cursor to the line of the

GROUP NO. item which contains the data to be erased. Example: When erasing the data that has been set on the line of TNO.5 shown in the diagram below: TNO. GROUP NO.

Machining Management Functions (Option) The machining management functions are designed so that machining management information for each pallet can be managed by saving the information into a PALLET MANAGEMENT display area and pallet ID information separate from the machining program data field. This allows the machining program sequence to be changed according to the status of the workpiece without updating the program. These functions are therefore effective for multi-pallet types of machines, in particular, that have recently come into widespread use.

4-143

4-14-1

Function overview 1. Scheduled-operation function Allows the machining sequence to be designated for each pallet on the PALLET MANAGEMENT display. This eliminates the need for program updating. 2. External unit skipping function Allows the MMS unit and subprogram unit of a machining program to be designated on the PALLET MANAGEMENT display as the program units to be skipped. 3. External multi-piece machining function Allows a multi-piece machining process to be included in a machining program by designating that process on the PALLET MANAGEMENT display. 4. Jig offsetting function Allows offsetting data from a reference pallet to be designated on the PALLET MANAGEMENT display. Thus, constant machining accuracy can be achieved even when workpieces of the same type are machined using multiple pallets. Data of the PALLET MANAGEMENT display:

(2) Editing in the scheduled-operation mode Even during scheduled operation, editing can be done on the PALLET MANAGEMENT display, except for the line of 1 under ORDER item (machining now in progress). See subparagraph 2. “Data editing methods”, for further details of editing. If the machining for pallets is finished during EDIT mode, the machine will be stopped. In this case, press the menu key EDIT END, then press start button to continue machining. (3) Restarting in the scheduled-operation mode Restarting in the scheduled-operation mode can be done in the following two cases only. 1) If the workpiece number of 1 under ORDER item is the same as that displayed on the COMMAND display 2) If unit skipping is designated For 2) above, if the unit skipping switch is on, execution of that unit will be skipped and the immediately succeeding unit will be executed.

4-151

4. Other precautions (1) Pressing the RESET key changes CUTTING to UNMADE. If there are pallets to be machined, set READY under STATE. (2) If an alarm occurs during machining, the alarm will be processed as follows: - The alarm number is set under STATE. - ! is displayed under ORDER, and the machining order is updated. - If the alarm is of such a type that machining can be continued, the machining operation will start from the machining program preset for the next process. If machining cannot be continued, it will terminate on occurrence of the alarm. Note: Do not set a multi-process program that enables machining to be done only after the preprocess has been completed. If such a program is set and an alarm occurs, the previous process will remain aborted and the next process will begin. Use a subprogram if such programming is required. (3) The external switch must be turned off when machining is to be done in the normal mode. If machining is done in the scheduled-operation mode, scheduled operation will be carried out with automatically updated workpiece numbers. - Distinction of sheculed-operation and normal-mode operation: If the workpiece numbers on the COMMAND display are displayed red in highlighted form, then scheduled-operation is in effect. If the workpiece numbers on the COMMAND display are not displayed red in highlighted form, then normal-mode operation is in effect. 4-14-3

Notes Strictly observe the following notes when using the jig offsetting function: (1) Data containing the jig offsetting data is displayed in the field of WPC (workpiece coordinates) of the COMMAND display. (2) Set jig offsetting data to 0 if the jig offsetting function is not to be used. (3) Jig offsetting will not be performed if the table is rotated using the B code commands of manual programs or EIA programs. Only the indexing unit will be executed in such a case. (4) Since the jig offsetting function only corrects any offsets in each axis direction, no corrections are performed for any offsets in the rotational direction of each axis. 1) X—Z direction

Description

Machining management data writing macro-program 1. Overview The UNIT SKIP SWITCH data, MULTIPLE SWITCH data, and JIG OFFSET data that are saved within the machining management feature can be updated from macro-programs. Updating uses special system variables. For macroprograms that only require setting of data in those variables, however, special setting is required for updating. This feature becomes valid only when the main program is a MAZATROL program. Updating will not occur if an updating program is executed alone. Make an updating program so that it can be called using a subprogram unit of a MAZATROL program. Main program (MAZATROL)

- Supplementary description The following lists restrictions, and the reasons, as to the making of a calling program: Restriction 1 Reason

The write macro calling subprogram unit must end with an endof-process unit. The NC performs data check and other pre-processing operations on a machining program process basis. If a write macro-program is not separated as one process, therefore, pre-processing will be performed on all subsequent machining units including skipped units before write operations are performed. This will result in an abnormal machine action even if the UNIT SKIP SWITCH data is set to ON.

Restriction 2 Reason

The menu key MEASURE MACRO menu key must be pressed to set a subprogram unit workpiece number. The NC pre-reads the selected machining program. When machining management data is to be written, pre-reading must be stopped immediately. The NC stops the pre-reading operation on execution of the subprogram unit that you have set after pressing the menu key MEASURE MACRO.

Note: Special processing must be done to restart from the stopped status of pre-reading by the NC. Do not use the menu key MEASURE MACRO, except when the usage is clearly indicated.

4-162

Setting

Note: Since UNIT SKIP SWITCH data and MULTI FLAG data are both binary bit data, they must be converted into decimal data when set. Example: To write 0000001111 into the UNIT SKIP SWITCH data area, set the data as follows: #50443=15; (15= 23×1+22×1+2×1+1) System variables for various types of data have been listed above. Writing is not performed just by setting data for these variables. To let the NC perform write operations, system variables for write control must be further set. Write control system variables are listed in the table below. Write control system variables Description

Notes: 1. Since system variables #50467 and #50499 are both decimal data, binary bit data must be converted into decimal data when setting. Example: To write only UNIT SKIP SWITCH data and MULTI FLAG A, set the data as follows: #50467=5 ; (=000000101) 2. Since other features also use it, system variable #50499 must be set as follows for identification: #50499=#50499 OR 2; 3. System variable #50499 must be set at the end of a macro-program. Sample: Write macro-program 9 8 7 6 UNIT SKIP SWITCH (Decimal) ON ! (0 1 0 0 MULTIPLE SWITCH MAIN 0 0 0 0 MULTIPLE SWITCH A 0 0 1 1 JIG OFFSET X 1.234 JIG OFFSET Y 0.123 JIG OFFSET Z

3. Machine action Use the following parameter to select whether the write feature is to be made valid or invalid; Machine parameter L52

Set “0” to make the write feature invalid. Set “1” to make the write feature valid.

Even when the write feature is made valid, writing will be performed only when external CPU operation or scheduled operation (see Note 2) is performed. If the write feature is made invalid or if wrong macro-program data is set, writing will not occur (the machine will stop together with the display of an alarm 192 EXECUTION IMPOSSIBLE). Notes: 1. Even when the alarm occurs and writing is not performed, the machine action will not stop if the menu key MEASURE MACRO was not be pressed when using subprogram unit for calling the write macro-program. 2. External CPU operation and scheduled operation refer to the following types of operation: - External CPU operation Automatic operation with machine parameter L54 set equal to 1 (Pallet-IDbased operation controlled by a CPU external to the NC) - Scheduled operation Schedule-mode-based automatic operation with machine parameter L54 set equal to 2

EIA Program Monitoring Functions (Option)

4-15-1

Function overview The following three functions are available on the PROGRAM MONITOR display: 1. Operational status check Further detailed operational status of the machine is checked. 2. Monitoring The currently active program block is displayed purple in highlighted form on the displayed program list. 3. Program start position designation Any position on the displayed program list where you want to start the program can be designated using the cursor keys. This designation makes the entire previous modal information ineffective. The monitoring and program start position designation functions are valid only for EIA/ISO programs. The monitoring function, however, becomes valid when an EIA/ISO program is called as a subprogram from a MAZATROL program. The program start position designation function cannot be used for subprograms.

Program start position designation function Function: The program start position designation is used to designate any block from which you want to start the program on the PROGRAM MONITOR display. This function, unlike the restart function, ignores all program contents presented before the designated block. Modal information must therefore be set before executing a program using this function. 1.

Notes Use program monitoring function with care to the following. 1. The active block during automatic operation is displayed purple in reverse form on line 2. If, however, the active block is the starting block of the program, that block will be displayed on line 1. 2. During automatic operation, one line of the block data immediately preceding the active block data is displayed and if the preceding block consists of two lines, only the first line of data will be displayed. The preceding block will not be displayed if it consists of three lines or more. 3. The monitoring display of the active program can be made only during memory operation. The active program, therefore, is not displayed during tape operation, MDI operation, or HDLC operation. 4. When a macro statement is displayed, the first space may be automatically deleted and then displayed in left-justified form. 5. When block skip is specified, the skip-specified block will be displayed during execution of the block succeeding that skip-specified block. Example: If block skip 1 is set: PROGRAM G01X-100. F1000 ; Skip-specified block Active block

/1Y100. ; Z-10. ; X100. ; . . .

6. Programs whose display has been inhibited using the program management functions are not displayed. Refer to section 4-22 Program Management Function, for further details of the program management functions. If a display-inhibited program is called up as a subprogram from the main program, block “M98” of the main program will be displayed during execution of the display-inhibited program. Example: PROGRAM G01X-100. F1000 ; M98P9000 ;

On-machine Measurement (Option)

4-17-1

Function overview The MAZATROL M-32 system has three measurement functions: - Automatic alignment—Can be used only for a MAZATROL program. - Measurement print-out—Can be called up with a user macro to measure hole pitches, slopes, etc. and print out the results. This function works only for a machining program. - On-machine measurement—Can be used in the manual mode. Both automatic alignment and measurement print-out work with a program, whereas on-machine measurement allows both dimensional measurement and results display in the manual mode. With on-machine measurement, therefore, you can easily perform measurements without preparing a program when machining setup or dimensional measurement after machining has taken place. Since it presents coordinates display in addition to dimensional display, the on-machine measurement function can also be used for workpiece alignment.

4-17-2

Use of on-machine measurement The on-machine measurement capability is designed for measuring work dimensions and provided with alignment function. 1. Work dimension measurement Items below can be measured. - Diameter of circular shape and center coordinate value - Surface workpiece coordinate value, slope gradient with respect to machine coordinate axis - Surface straightness, slope gradient with respect to machine coordinate axis Measurement will be allowed in combination with the result of three items above. — Center to center distance of circular shape “ Distance between circular shape and surface ” Surface to surface distance, parallelism, straightness, slope gradient

4-176

— Center to center distance

“ Circle center to surface distance

” Surface to surface distance

NM210-00446

2. Alignment function For alignment with other than on-machine measurement capability, MDI•MMS function is provided. This is used to measure X-Y, X-Z, Y-Z plane coordinate values. If work origin is at the center of a hole, measurement is impossible. Further, MDI•MMS is exclusively used for program WPC measurement, and so it is not used to make coordinate confirmation only. Although MAZATROL MMS unit can be used for this measurement procedure, program preparation time is required. For alignement with on-machine measurement capability, coordinate value of measurement point, center coordinate value of circular shape, and slope gradient of surface can be shown, and WPC measurement with work origin at the center of a hole can be accomplished.

4-177

4-17-3

Measurement pattern Measurement patterns are available in five types as below. - Circle measurement . . . . . . . . . . . Diameter and center coordinates of hole/boss - Surface measurement . . . . . . . . . Surface coordinates, slope gradient - Straightness measurement . . . . Straightness between two arbitrary points - One-point measurement . . . . . . . Reference surface coordinate (on the measurement axis) - Two-point measurement . . . . . . . Groove/Step center coordinate (on the measurement axis) In addition, combinations of the leading three measurement patterns above can be used to calculate distance, gradient, parallelism, and straightness. 1. Circle measurement (Three measurement points) (1) Measuring procedure - Measurement points A, B, and C can be positioned arbitrarily. (Three points must be at different positions.) - Measurement direction (touch sensor movement direction) must be one of the axial directions (simultaneous two axes must not be used). In ±Z direction, however, alarm will be made. - Circle measurement is allowed only on X-Y plane. - Z coordinate at points A, B, and C must be identical. If Z coordinate value exceeds set parameter L12, alarm will be indicated, but measurement is possible.

2. Surface measurement For surface measurement, surface to be measured must be parallel to either of X-, Y- or Z-axes. (1) Surface nomenclature If the selected surface is parallel to the X-axis, that surface is referred to as the X-axis surface. Likewise, if the selected surface is parallel to the Y-axis or the Z-axis, that surface is referred to as the Y-axis surface or the Z-axis surface, respectively. Z

(2) Selection of measurement surface Which surface should be measured is determined from measuring JOG direction and coordinates of two points on the surface. The following describes the procedure. 1) Two axial surfaces are determined by JOG direction. 2) Axial surface is determined from comparison of point to point distance in axial component. Example: JOG in X direction Ø Distance component: iz>iy Ø
