Hi everyone. I've been trying to program to move the steady rest but the M code M58/M59 just don't work in this machine.
Can you please share your experience programming this?
TIA

Serial number?
Electrical Edition number?
Ladder version?
From that, I can answer anything about why or why not something is happening.
I found this label behind the machine.Quote:

What is the ladder version?
Press the <SYSTEM> hard key
Press the <PMC> softkey (depending on Fanuc model)
Press the <PMCPRM> or <PMCCONFIG> (depending on Fanuc model)
Press the <TITLE> softkey
There is a field: PROGRAM DRAWING NUMBER (it is in the middle of the page)
It contains a LONG alphanumeric sequence, separated by a comma or colon...and then another alphanumeric sequence
I need the WHOLE code...everything in that field.
From this information, I can see why the machine does anything and everything related to IO
Per your electrical manual:
The option, if purchased, has a right/left independent open-ability, and a separate m-code to clamp/unclamp its brake bar.
see the m-code list in the first part of your electrical manual.
If you want to know the output, and the sequence on actions that enable it, I would need the ladder version.
Thank you for the M code chart. M36-39 work just fine.Quote:

I NEED THE LADDER VERSION.
