    % load - Fanuc 18i controller

    We have Heian routers. On our newer router with a Fanuc 31i controller, we can view the % load that is on the x,y,z,v axes servos. We access that information through the 0750 OVC LEVEL on the diagnostic screen.

    We would like to see the same information on our 18i controllers, but cannot find it. Does anyone know where to find this information on the 18i controllers?

    Wiley1,
    I posted the same response over in the machinetoolhelp forum and will post it here as well incase others find it useful.

    Is it safe to ass u me that you are "CNC Steve" over in the other forum?

    Look at the attached document from the 18i operator manual and see if this gets you to the display that you are looking for.

    Yes, I am on both forums, but only one at a time. (chair)

    Thanks for replying to both.

    I got the same information from our fanuc manual, but when I tried it, the right search arrow did nothing. I tried in numerous modes, but was unsuccessful. I'm not sure what to try next. I may need to contact the machine manufacturer.

    That is odd. It could be possible that it is an option that is not active but I could not find anything in the list to confirm that. The manual also does not reference that it is an option but that is not uncommon. Unless anyone else knows what to check I think you are right about contacting the MTB and see what they say.
