Hello.
We just purchased a 10hc that came with a hyd lbs barfeeder. The feeder was removed and wires cut without marking them
we are not using the feeder.
we can start the machine up and everything works in manual mode but nothing works at all in mdi or auto mode. It won't run a program.
No alarms from either fanuc or machine.
I have checked the basics in the ladder like cycle start button working.
It is just like the cycle start button is disconnected
After to many hours in the manual I am going round in circles.

I have changed the diagnostic for the barfeeder option and that didn't help.
I have an 8s and have been comparing the 2 diagnostic and ladder but nothing screams at me.

does anyone know what bits are requiem to satisfy running in auto mode?
The cycle start rung G120. 2 from memory goes true when cycle start is pressed so there must be more to it than just the one rung

thanks guys

What is the machine's serial number? (found on the placard, located near the main power switch)
What is the Electrical Hardware version? (found on the placard, located near the main power switch)

What is the ladder version?
Press the <SYSTEM> hard key
Press the <PMC> softkey (depending on Fanuc model)
Press the <PMCPRM> or <PMCCONFIG> (depending on Fanuc model)
Press the <TITLE> softkey
There is a field: PROGRAM DRAWING NUMBER (it is in the middle of the page)
It contains a LONG alphanumeric sequence, separated by a comma or colon...and then another alphanumeric sequence
I need the WHOLE code...everything in that field.


From this information, I can see why the machine does anything and everything related to IO

Thought I had better report back.
The problem was a relay in the control cab that required a 'barfeed ready' signal. As the wires were cut to the feeder and no way to work out what was what I pulled the relay from the socket and hey Presto we are up and running
