File Format

Explanation

File format

All files output to or input from external I/O devices are text files. The format is described below.

A file starts with % or LF, followed by the actual data. A file always ends with %. In an input

operation, data between the first % and the next LF is skipped. Each block ends with an LF, not a

semicolon (;).

• LF:

0A (hexadecimal) of ASCII code

• When a file containing lowercase letters, kana characters, and several special characters (such as $, \,

and !) is written, those letters and characters are ignored.

Example)

O0001(MEMORY CARD SAMPLE FILE)

G17 G49 G97

G92 X-11.3 Y2.33

M30

• ASCII codes are always used when data is input to or output from a memory card regardless of the

setting parameter (ISO/EIA).

• Bit 3 (NCR) of parameter No. 0100 can be used to specify whether the end of block code (EOB) is

output as "LF" only, or as "LF, CR, CR."

SCREEN HARD COPY FUNCTION

Overview

This function converts screen information displayed on the CNC into bit map format data and output it to

a memory card. Once output, bit map format data can be displayed and edited on a personal computer.

Explanation

Start/cancellation methods

The screen hard copy function is started by pressing and holding down key

for five seconds. The

function can be canceled by pressing key

or by changing the hard copy cancellation request signal

HCABT<G067.6> to "1".

While the screen hard copy function is in progress, the hard copy execution status signal

HCEXE<F061.3> is "1", and upon completion, it is set to "0". When a screen hard copy cancellation

request is received, the hard copy cancellation request reception signal HCAB2<F061.2> is set to "1" and

remains in the "1" state until the hard copy function is started again or a reset is made.

Acquisition and output of screen data

When started, the screen hard copy function starts acquiring screen data. As soon as it has acquired it, the

function outputs bit map format data to the memory card inserted into the LCD unit. While screen data is

being acquired, the screen remains stationary for a few seconds. Acquired screen data can be output from

the memory card screen. Also, while screen data is being output, "OUTPUT" blinks in the status display.

Screen data file names

Bit map format screen data files created by this function are assigned the names below, starting with the

one created after the power is turned on.

"HDCPY000.BMP" (name of the first file output to the memory card after the power is turned on)

"HDCPY001.BMP" (name of the second file output to the memory card after the power is turned on)

"HDCPY999.BMP" (name of the 1000th file output to the memory card after the power is turned on)

If, after a file with "HDCPY999.BMP" is output, the screen hard copy function is executed, the file name

returns to "HDCPY000.BMP". If, however, a file with the same file name as the one to be output when

the screen hard copy function is executed exists on the memory card, alarm SR1973 is issued. If the

capacity of the memory card is exceeded, alarm SR1962 is issued.

Since no screen data in output in both cases, rename or delete the file or replace the memory card with a

new one.

Limitation

- Screens whose hard copies cannot be made

Hard copies of the BOOT screen, the IPL screen, and the system alarm screen cannot be made.

- Foreground I/O devices

During DNC operation, for example, screen data cannot be output while a foreground I/O device is in use.

OPERATION

9.CREATING PROGRAMS

Explanation

Comments in a program

Comments can be written in a program using the control in/out codes.

Example) O0001 (TEST PROGRAM) ;

M08 (COOLANT ON) ;

• When the

key is pressed after the control-out code "(", comments, and control-in code ")"

have been typed, the typed comments are registered.

• When the

key is pressed midway through comments, to enter the rest of comments later, the

data typed before the

key is pressed may not be correctly registered (not entered, modified, or

lost) because the data is subject to an entry check which is performed in normal editing.

• Control-out code "(" or Control-in code ")" cannot be registered by itself.

9.2

AUTOMATIC INSERTION OF SEQUENCE NUMBERS

Sequence numbers can be automatically inserted in each block when a program is created using the MDI

keys in the EDIT mode.

Set the increment for sequence numbers in parameter No. 3216.

Procedure for automatic insertion of sequence numbers

Procedure

Enter 1 in response to the prompt for "SEQUENCE NO." in setting data. (see III-12.3.1).

Enter the EDIT mode.

Press

key to display the program screen.

Search for or register the number of a program to be edited and move the cursor to the EOB (;) of the

block after which automatic insertion of sequence numbers is started.

When a program number is registered and an EOB (;) is entered with the

key, sequence

numbers are automatically inserted starting with 0. Change the initial value, if required, according to

step 10, then skip to step 7.

Press address key

and enter the initial value of N.

Press

key.

Enter each word of a block.

Press

key.

- 479 -

9.CREATING PROGRAMS

OPERATION

B-64304EN/02

Press

key. The EOB is registered in memory and sequence numbers are automatically

inserted. For example, if the initial value of N is 10 and the parameter for the increment is set to 2,

N12 inserted and displayed below the line where a new block is specified.

10 In the example above, if N12 is not necessary in the next block, pressing the

key after N12 is

displayed deletes N12.

If wishing to insert N100, not N12, into the next block, type N100 immediately after N12 is

displayed, and press

This causes N100 to be registered and the initial value to be changed

to 100.

9.3

CREATING PROGRAMS IN TEACH IN MODE

(PLAYBACK)

In the TEACH IN JOG or TEACH IN HANDLE mode, you can create a program while inserting the

coordinate of the current position along each axis in the absolute coordinate system when the tool is

moved by manual operation into the program.

Explanation

Registering a position with compensation

When an axis name and a numeric value are keyed in and the

key is pressed, the value keyed in is

added to the absolute coordinate of the current position and the coordinate is inserted. This operation

allows insertion of a corrected value for the absolute coordinate position.

Registering commands other than position commands

Commands to be entered before and after a position command must be entered before and after the

machine position is registered, by using the same operation as program editing in EDIT mode.

Pocket calculator type input

When the pocket calculator type input format is disabled (bit 0 (DPI) of parameter No. 3401 is set to 0),

the coordinate of the current position is inserted into the program in least input increments. When the

pocket calculator type input format is enabled (the bit is set to 1), the coordinate is inserted with a decimal

point.
