does anyone have the initialization procedure for the mazatrol T2 control ,
we have had a problem after the machine has been switched off for a while
we have the parameters but can't input them , i presume ,until the machine has been initialized.
#
any help would be gratefully accepted.

What's the control (Brand and model)?

[sneakym8]

hi botha.y
its a mazatrol cam T2

[sneakym8]

I think its called the Mazak Service Bulletin 0989-002

Additional Notes

Note: The transfer of Mazatrol programs with CMT IO requires
PC-DNC plus 3.3.1 or later.
When transferring to / from this CNC, it is recommended that
you use a hardware handshake cable. Diagram:

PC(3) to CNC(3)
PC(7) to CNC(5)
RS232 Support
PC(8) to CNC(4)
PC(5) to CNC(7)
Jumper 6,8,20 on CNC side only
Attach cable shield to pin 1 on CNC side only
PC 25-pin to CNC 25-pin:
PC(2) to CNC(3)
PC(3) to CNC(2)

Steps for transferring CNC to PC (EIA programs):
EIA.1 Press PROGRAM softkey
EIA.2 Press PROGRAM FILE softkey
EIA.3 Press DATA IN OUT softkey
EIA.4 Press TAPE I/O softkey
EIA.5 Press PUNCH NC TAPE softkey
EIA.6 Enter work #
EIA.7 Press INPUT
EIA.8 Repeat 6/7 for addl. Work #'s
EIA.9 Press START
Steps for transferring CNC to PC (Mazatrol programs):
MAZ.1 Press PROGRAM softkey
MAZ.2 Press PROGRAM FILE softkey
MAZ.3 Press DATA IN OUT softkey
MAZ.4 Press CMT I/O softkey
MAZ.5 Press SAVE CMT softkey
MAZ.6 Enter work #
MAZ.7 Press INPUT
MAZ.8 Repeat 6/7 for addl. Work #'s
MAZ.9 Press START
Steps for transferring PC to CNC (EIA programs):
EIA.1 Press PROGRAM softkey
EIA.2 Press PROGRAM FILE softkey
EIA.3 Press DATA IN OUT softkey
EIA.4 Press TAPE I/O softkey
EIA.5 Press ALL LOAD NC<-TAPE
EIA.6 Press START
Steps for transferring PC to CNC (Mazatrol programs):
MAZ.1 Press PROGRAM softkey

MAZ.2 Press PROGRAM FILE softkey
MAZ.3 Press DATA IN OUT softkey
MAZ.4 Press CMT I/O softkey
MAZ.5 Press LOAD CMT softkey
MAZ.6 Enter work #
MAZ.7 Press INPUT
MAZ.8 Press START
Tip: To avoid keying in program #'s for Mazatrol input, use the
DATA IO -> CMT -> CMT CONTENTS function to load file
contents onto the screen. Then select LOAD NC <- CMT and
click START. Values will remain filled in for you.
Steps for setting parameters in the CNC:
1 Press LEFT PAGE key
2 Press PARAM softkey
3 Cursor to parameter
4 Key in new value
5 Press INPUT
6 POWER DOWN CNC

Hi
There is an initialization pocedure to do ( Mazak Service Bulletin 0989-002) to clear the memory before i can do any of the inputting of parameters.
this is what i need to re-initialize the machine, without this, the memory and parameter table is full of garbage which throws erronious error messages
and stops the input of parameters.

[botha.y]

Well I would enter everything manually at first, look at the parameters table and see if there are any parameters with the wrong value or the asterisks (*) instead of a value, then insert the value that it is supposed to be. I would also delete all non-macros programs from memory and macros as well if they are all well backed up for reloading.
If that does not work then you could look at this thread: http://www.cnczone.com/forums/mazak_...2_nmi23-2.html
Although in my opinion clearing memory by removing battery and waiting might not be the idea of the year but I wouldn't know what other methods there could be (there would be DIP switch you might find in your books their different functions). For any more info try asking MrMazak or MemoryMan I don't really work with Mazaks.
Cheers.

Hello guy, do you have the parameters for this machine? I have a Mazak SQT-10 with mazatrol T32-B and batery died. Thanks a lot!
