    FANUC 6M Control

    Where does one find how to operate from the MDI screen, the 6M seems to be much differant than later controls.
    Anyone know where I can find a 6M operators manual?
    I have a older machine I need to get running.
    thanks

    Turn knob to MDI position, then push CMD button and page down to next page. You should be able to enter almost all commands. Press start button to enact.

    6M is too old to run

    6M is too old to run, and if there is some part broken, not easy to find and the part is expensive. better change to a new CNC with similar operation.
