Hi
Can anybody help with Dripfeed on a IMA/BIMA 210 cnc. It has a NUM 1060 controller and runs IMATronik 231 with NUM GR_PC on OS/2 ver 3.
I have setup everything correctly in terms of NUM side (not my first time drip feeding a num controller) - Parameters setup, Serial Line setup, Comm port Setup.etc
Problem is the following
I put NUM in drip feed mode and load program on pc side with a NC editor.
As soon as I press start on CNC - I can see the program loading on PC side, but nothing happens on CNC side.
I have gone through the LADDER logic of the control and you can see NUM going into PPR mode, but then stops at some kind of prog_aktiv function.
I have an idea that IMATronik is the culprit, but not sure how to bypass.
Anybody have an idea of how to drip feed IMA Machines?
Thanks
PS !!!
Anybody have software for IMA cnc that runs on Microsoft Windows???
