G18 will also need to be active prior to this line.

Then i dont believe it is possible to fire in the offsets on their own.

My solution would be to fire them over as a sub program, with g10 in it.

What you need to do is transfer the information using the ethernet function. Its the only way. You then need to write some software to do it too.

What model fanuc control have you got?

I can...

What control is it?

The 0i-C series doesn't have embedded ethernet function on it, only the 0i-D has it.

Best option, like Mystic Monkey says is fast ethernet board.

In the Uk it is a £1400 optional board and...

The easiest way would be to store the offset in the program being transferred, with:

Or if you need a macro way of doing it then:

#5222 = Y G54 Pos...

Is there a safety relay in the machine? If there is, test it.

Hello, sorry i sent the answer to this to your inbox.

Hello.

What you are trying to do is not possible on an 18 (i believe). I just tried it and got the same alarm - even without decimals.

I do exactly the same for offsets.

T2M6

Obviously only works if the offset number is the same as the tool number.

Hola.

Sorry no Spanish.

This might help.

Yeah i've done a few with RS-232 in the past and found the same thing.

Using ethernet or wireless, it handles it fine.

Hello.

You can simulate any Fanuc program with it. Normal G-code, MGi code, macro b etc.

It will show tool paths and a 3d model for all of the above.

NC guide is used for more than program...

It's the G54 - G59 offset page.

This is an option, you need to purchase from Fanuc.

It's not very good for 3D work. 2D and 2.5D it's ok.

For 3D work i used vericut to test programs.

There are tooling forms on it.
