I am looking to find the parameter that will let me address the right axis switch signal for the proper axis movement, similar to image MPG1 attached.

As of right now my machine uses a future life technology mpg which has a strangely mapped internal rotary switch, and the output are as seen on MPG2 picture also attached.

I was not able to find these parameter on the machine. The only occurence of axis selection I found in the ladder is F0102.0 and right now only the X axis will work. I can manually jump my machine I/O board to have the axis changed with different combination and everything else on the new mpg work.

The machine is a First MCV-300 with a Fanuc Oi Mate-MD controller. MPG is connected to the I/O card mounted on the operator panel, which is connected to the Fanuc board via ribbon cable. On the Mate MD manual my model of MPG is listed, it is a Tosoku HC115.

It is not suggest to change to a different brand MPG, which will cause compatibility problems.
If the original MPG is Tosoku HC115, then better use the same one, so no need to change parameters.

There is no parameter to select axis
As far as i know,the selection of an axis and also the increment to use is done in the PMC.
Also the =5v signal for the direction is done in the PMC

Maybe the axis selection is handled by the machine PLC before the fanuc side of things ? I was able to get X1, X10 and X100 as well as the pulse generator working, just can't get to change axis as the rotary switch on my new MPG has a different logic output than the old one.

It is strange that you suggest I should not be changing model of MPG, Fanuc controller can be set to use any type of MPG. And that's pretty much the base of any CNC, to be able to set parameter to run any hardware present.

yes,you are corect
Fanuc can manage any kind of MPG
The confusion you make is that ,like i said,is not done in parmaters ,but in the build of the PMC(Ladder)where you assign the inputs of the adress from your MPG nad hook up one based on the inputs signals you have already set up in the PMC

The HC115 can be configured
Many different ways for axis select and speed Multiplication.

You may have not ordered the correct configuration for axis select.
