Have you gotten any help yet on this issue? If you have not, I believe I have the original software for this machine as well as the YuYu software required to load it all. The alarms you are getting...

could be a couple of things. need to check the parameters and make sure they are correct. could also adjust the gains on the drive amp to smooth it out. and finally could be a prox switch or drive...

I appreciate your input. I agree there is definately going to be a learning curve with starting up and running a shop. As far as the work goes there is no problem there I have 15 years experience as...

Hello all, I am researching the idea of starting up a small shop in Wichita, KS. I am looking at buying a 3 axis CNC Mill to start with for machining parts for my service company, but also picking up...

this is not a big issue. The check sum error can be fixed rather easy. Call me tomarrow at 316-260-6090 and i'll get you through it. shouldn't take more than 5 min's.

The worst of the alarms you have is the check sum, but it is an easy fix. Contact me by phone or email directly and we can get it taken care of. My contact info is on my website at www.kmtscnc.com....

If read-a-head is turned on then the machine will look ahead on the card and it should be seemless as far as the program goes. I have done this serval times from an applications stand point. trying...

the 4 digits are bits 0-3, or starting on the right and moving left. if you decide to change them make sure you write down what is in your control!! If you can email me the machine model, serial...

I emailed the Micon 8 generic parameter list to you this should give you a good starting point with those. Glad to be of help!!!

Ok guys, not sure what is going on but I'm not getting any emails or anything so here is my new info...

Reboot the machine holding down cancel and p until you hit stand by this should bring z back to life

You can contact me at 316-260-6090 or email me at [email protected].

The machine you have, is it a HC or HG? Micon 8 or Micon 16? This will matter when it comes to setting up the RS232 connection. You have to set this in the Micon control as well as the Fanuc side.

The M198 funtion is an option on the 18i control that must be turned on. Also you have to set the I/O channel, and set the memory to CARD on the F5 key I believe it is. As for the option parameter,...

Sorry I've been away for a bit. My number has changed it is 316-260-6090. Or you can get ahold of me from my new website at www.kmtscnc.com.

if the control is already configured for the replacement tool then you need to look at in the book. there is probably a code already set up to goto replacement tool. if not then yes in the macro tell...

you have if Q199=2 then goto I would have the macro set up to call up next tool or "sister" tool if out of tolerence. you are telling it to goto label 1, i take it this is your "flag" for the tool,...

Yes you do need a macro to run this. now that you have the machine set up to flag the tool it won't be to hard to do. the macro is written the same way i explained in my last post but in the begining...

If you want send me an email and I'll send you an wiring schematic and ladder diagram for a machine. I think that will get you started by showing you how the mechanical and hydrolic parts interact...

Bubbles, macros are not that hard to write. in each control you have program numbers which are protected for example 8000 programs on Fanuc controls. you just write a program telling the machine to...

What alarms are you getting? Probably something that can be fixed very easily. That tool magazine, carrier fingers, and twin arm are pretty basic in both design and in/out signals. Alot of what I see...

Phone number change....[QUOTE=Hitachi_man]Hello all out there lost in the confusion of trying to find support for your Hitachi Seiki machines. I own a CNC Service Company in Wichita Kansas working on...

That machine should have the Micon 16 front end, to reset the tool pot you need to go into the system table and do it there. Press F1 > F4 and that will take you into the AB-Phase table. Change your...

works for me!! I think some of the new user will find it to be alot less intimatating...

What manuals are you looking for? I'll see if I have them.

It's on the edge of the board, it will say micon 8-1 or micon 8-2.
