    First...are the cables and jumpers the same on both machines? If not, match them. Next check your parameters on the LB 15 to make sure they match the LB-10. If you are not even getting garbage,...

    Re: Help with transfer - Macturn250W OSP200

    You've got a timing issue of when the W move is occurring. Depending on parameter settings, your G140 and M01's can work like P-codes, so with the M01 it may not be reading ahead as much as with it...

    Re: LNS bar feeder alarm

    The lathe also needs to send the Barfeeder an “ok” signal. It is usually labeled “Auto from lathe” or similar. The lathe must be in auto or MDI with link ON and have no alarm in order to generate the...

    Re: LNS bar feeder alarm

    Yes it is most likely caused by the lathe and it is missing a normally closed contact in the E-stop circuit that opens when the lathe goes into the e-stop or non ready condition. This is sometimes...
  12. Re: Can anyone help with Load monitor on Genos Lathe

    The variables work on your machine. Look carefully at the code and remove the code for axes that you do not need. (Like is shown for the Y axis) Now I’m assuming that you have added the needed code...

    Re: LB45 II M, OSP U100L, wear offsets

    The U100 control only had geometry offsets and wear offsets were a very rare option. Most likely not on your control.
  14. Re: OKUMA LT15-M (rack U100L) all axis zero zet + set limit procedure.

    There should be a Management Data card in your electrical cabinet with Stroke end limits and X zero sets recorded. Enter those numbers in the appropriate registers.

    Re: Changing MC-4VA from 480 to 220V

    You are correct that moving the taps to the required voltage indicated will work.

    Phase can be confirmed by checking for hydraulic pressure. If that builds then phases are correct.

  17. Re: OKUMA OSP U100L - language, manual , file step

    It requires a software reload on that machine. Kurmay may be able to help you out. It is not a parameter setting until you get to the P100 and later controls.

    In your System Parameters, you need to go to the PR Zero Offset and shift the encoder position by the amount that you are off. It will give you a "Power on effective parameter set" alarm which...

    Re: C-Axis Orientation / Lock

    I think the only way is to turn on the spindle orientation function and use the M19. It is software only and requires no hardware.

    Maybe Kurmay can grant your wish?

    Re: 15331 Touch sensor retract LS is not On

    There is normally a proximity switch that detects when the arm is fully up. It may may require a little adjustment. There should be an indicator light on the prox showing when it is retracted.

  27. Re: Bypass/Disable ATC on a Okuma MX 45 VAE/OSP 700M

    It appears that you may be able to "shut it off" by changing the spec code in a few places:
    EC spec code:
    With ATC =0
    With TS axis =0
    Without TS-axis drive motor =1
    They should be in the spec...

    Re: M axis orient function

    Typically it is used for a boring operation so that you can retract without dragging your boring bar. Orient, shift away from orientation, retract.
