Sorry Dale, forgot to mention you there! Thanks for your help, truly appreciated!
All OK now! Jim Lewis of CNC USA, LLC - Home helped me solved this. Great guy!
Problem was twofold:
1. The service guy doing the install didn't put a jumper cable in CXA20 port, instead he put...
OK, Jim, just sent you an e-mail. Thanks!
Thanks for the encouragement! I am not quite sure what you asked, so I set 3003 bit 0=0 and bit 2=0. Then I turned off the keep relay K0,5 (set to 0). I then got G0008 =1. I could not jog the axis. I...
I don't know, try to ask Dell.
Best regards

drdos, here are some pics, but I am in my depths here, I have no experience with this. Is this what you are after? If not, could you please post a pic similar to what you are after....
Dale, it's a Beta iS 8/3000. Parameter 2020 is set to 259, so should be OK!
drdos, I have looked into this. G8.0 is on G130.3 is not (B.IT4). Do I turn G130.3 on in parameter 3003, and should 0 & 2 be set to 1 or 0? When I try to jog, coil G100.3 & G102.3 does not respond...
Dale, thanks for this! Unfortunately there it still doesn't move!
Thanks a lot, Dale! I will try this out now. About your point 76 (carry out page 4 of axis parameters in blue book 13610/11695), I don't have this page! Only got 1,2 & 3. Any chance you may scan it...
Thanks for your response! I figured it out, all OK now.
The USB to RS232 didn't work for my Heidenhain controller (tried two different types) so I just bought a Dell Rugged Extreme on Ebay. It has a native RS232 and it works well. A bit pricy, about...
Hello drdos, thanks for your response! I'll have a look at it and see if that is the cure.
Hello Dale, thanks for your response! This parameter (Keep Relay 8 bit 5) is already OK! As are the other 4th axis PMC parameters in the blue Doosan book.
Hello all, I am having some problems with my 4th axis installation. The rotary does not move!. I have checked the cables and there are no alarms on the controller. All 4th parameters from Doosan and...
Hello all,
I am trying to modify SprutCAM standard Fanuc postprocessor downloadable from their website. I have managed to modify some, but need some help to get further.
What I have is the...
Hello all!
I have bought a new 4th axis for my machine, and the machine itself is prewired for 4th axis. I have talked to Fanuc, and I know what extra hardware to get to have it installed. I think I...
Hello all, I am looking to buy a used CNC lathe. I find that some machines have very low run hours. Is it possible to change hour settings? The controllers are Fanuc of different types.
Do you zero...
Hello all,
I was setting the tool length and before doing so I wrote this line (as usual): G30G91Z0.
Normally the machine returns to zero, but not this time, it went in opposite direction into the...
Hello all,
the Fanudc guy came here in a few days ago. He couldn't find any errors, but there was a small proplem with one of my programs. I used G17 when it should have been G19. But the second...
Hello Alex,
to your question about absolute/incremental and arc format, I must say I don't know.....G05 is not available in my machine configuration, but I do have G08, but haven't tried it. I'll...
Hello Bill,
thanks for your reply. If I was to run my programs from the machinememory, I would have to divide the into unreasonably many smaller programs, and that would just be to cumbersome. All...
Hello Bill,
the program is quite large, but the problem is not consistent. I ran the program from the card, and there was a problem. I turned off the machine and ran the same program again 2 minutes...
Hello Bill,
I just checked the parameters in 1004, and they were all 0. The output from the CAM postprocessor is x.xxx, so that should be fine. There is a box called "machine state parameters"...
Hello Bill, thanks for your response, how do I find out the accuracy of the machine control? I'm looking in the manuals, but can't find anything.
Best regards
John
Hello Alex, I just sent you a PM. No, the code shown in the graphics (CNC display) are the same as the program. The machine performs movements that are different from what is shown on the display. I...
Hello Alex, thanks for your reply. I can't use DNC as I have no ethernet option and no adapter for RS232/USB. I don't think it's the memory card, the first time this fault occured I used a non Fanuc...
Thanks for your reply,
there weren't any Fanuc alarms. I stood by the machine and observed as it was in the beginning of the program and wanted to see if all went well. After a short while into the...
Hello all,
I bought a new Doosan DNM400 last year, with Fanuc 0i-MC controller. It has now run 340 hours. At 140 hours this thing happened: I was running from a PMCIA card, milling waterline, hence...
Hello all,
I bought a new Doosan DNM400 last year. It has now run 340 hours. At 140 hours this thing happened: I was running from a PMCIA card, milling waterline, hence the z value is constant, at...
