Does anyone have procedures for backing up the ladder and PMC for a Fanuc 15MF and 18M series controls? I also have a password protect for the ladder turned on for one of my 15MF controls that I can't get by. It won't even let me view it.

I am also trying to get around some operator alarms. The ladder is built to alarm out when you tool call the current tool in the spindle. Why the MTB did this is beyond me because there is a tool change macro in the machine that could have handled that. Were are the operator alarm messages located? Can they be bypassed or changed without changing the ladder? I do not have any ladder software.

I want to make sure that I have everything backup before I start expading memory, program numbers, variables ect.

Thanks,
Stevo
