OPERATION

8. DATA INPUT/OUTPUT

Explanations

D Registering the same file

When a file is output to the memory card, another file having the same

name

name may already exist in the memory card. Bit 6 (OWM) of parameter

No. 0138 can be used to select whether to overwrite the existing file

unconditionally or display a message confirming the overwriting.

A message appears when OWM is 0; overwriting occurs unconditionally

when OWM is 1. Even when OWM is 0, however, file overwriting occurs

unconditionally if the overwriting is specified by the screen hardcopy

function or an operation on the maintenance information screen or PMC

screen.

D Writing all programs

To write all programs, set program number = -9999. If no file name is

specified in this case, file name PROGRAM.ALL is used for registration.

D File name restrictions

The following restrictions are imposed on file name setting:

VVV

Not longer than 8

Extension not longer

characters

than 3 characters

OPERATION

8. DATA INPUT/OUTPUT

File format and error messages

Format

All files that are read from and written to a memory card are of text format.

The format is described below.

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

with %. In a read 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 read, those letters and

characters are ignored.

Example:

O0001(MEMORY CARD SAMPLE FILE)

G17 G49 G97

G92 X-11.3 Y2.33

⋅

M30

⋅

ASCII code is used for input/output, regardless of the setting

parameter (ISO/EIA).

⋅

Bit 3 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.”

Error messages

If an error occurs during memory card input/output, a corresponding error

message is displayed.

General

This chapter describes how to edit programs registered in the CNC.

Editing includes the insertion, modification, deletion, and replacement of

words. Editing also includes deletion of the entire program and automatic

insertion of sequence numbers. The extended part program editing

function can copy, move, and merge programs. This chapter also

describes program number search, sequence number search, word search,

and address search, which are performed before editing the program.

Procedure for inserting, altering and deleting a word

Select EDIT mode.

Press

PROG

Select a program to be edited.

If a program to be edited is selected, perform the operation 4.

If a program to be edited is not selected, search for the program

number.

Search for a word to be modified.

⋅ Scan method

⋅ Word search method

Perform an operation such as altering, inserting, or deleting a word.

Explanation

D Concept of word and

A word is an address followed by a number. With a custom macro, the

editing unit

concept of word is ambiguous.

So the editing unit is considered here.

The editing unit is a unit subject to alteration or deletion in one operation.

In one scan operation, the cursor indicates the start of an editing unit.

An insertion is made after an editing unit.

Definition of editing unit

(i) Program portion from an address to immediately before the next

address

(ii)An address is an alphabet, IF, WHILE, GOTO, END, DO=,or ; (EOB).

According to this definition, a word is an editing unit.

The word “word,” when used in the description of editing, means an

editing unit according to the precise definition.

WARNING

The user cannot continue program execution after altering, inserting, or deleting data of the

program by suspending machining in progress by means of an operation such as a single block

stop or feed hold operation during program execution. If such a modification is made, the

program may not be executed exactly according to the contents of the program displayed on

the screen after machining is resumed. So, when the contents of memory are to be modified

by part program editing, be sure to enter the reset state or reset the system upon completion

of editing before executing the program.

OPERATION

9. EDITING PROGRAMS

9.1.1

A word can be searched for by merely moving the cursor through the text

Word Search

Procedure for scanning a program

Press the cursor key

The cursor moves forward word by word on the screen; the cursor is

displayed at a selected word.

Press the cursor key

The cursor moves backward word by word on the screen; the cursor is

displayed at a selected word.

scans words

continuously.

The first word of the next block is searched for when the cursor key

is pressed.

The first word of the previous block is searched for when the cursor

key

is pressed.

Holding down the cursor key

moves the cursor to the

head of a block continuously.

Pressing the page key ^PAGE

displays the next page and searches for

the first word of the page.

Pressing the page key

displays the previous page and searches

Key in address

Key in a program number to be searched for.

Press the [O SRH] key.

Upon completion of search operation, the program number searched

Method 2

Select EDIT or MEMORY mode.

Press

Press the [O SRH] key.

In this case, the next program in the memory is searched for .

Method 3

This method searches for the program number (0001 to 0015)

corresponding to a signal on the machine tool side to start automatic

operation. Refer to the relevant manual prepared by the machine tool

builder for detailed information on operation.

Select MEMORY mode.

Set the reset state(*1)

⋅ The reset state is the state where the LED for indicating that

automatic operation is in progress is off.

(Refer to the relevant

manual of the machine tool builder.)

Set the program number selection signal on the machine tool side to a

number from 01 to 15.

⋅ If the program corresponding to a signal on the machine tool

side is not registered, P/S alarm (No. 059) is raised.

Press the cycle start button.

⋅ When the signal on the machine tool side represents 00,

program number search operation is not performed.

If the specified sequence number is not found in the program currently

selected, P/S alarm No. 060 occurs.

OPERATION

9. EDITING PROGRAMS

Explanations

Those blocks that are skipped do not affect the CNC. This means that the

D Operation during Search

data in the skipped blocks such as coordinates and M, S, and T codes does

not alter the CNC coordinates and modal values.

So, in the first block where execution is to be started or restarted by using

a sequence number search command, be sure to enter required M, S, and

T codes and coordinates. A block searched for by sequence number

search usually represents a point of shifting from one process to another.

When a block in the middle of a process must be searched for to restart

execution at the block, specify M, S, and T codes, G codes, coordinates,

and so forth as required from the MDI after closely checking the machine

tool and NC states at that point.

D Checking during search

During search operation, the following checks are made:

⋅ Optional block skip

Limitations

D Searching in

During sequence number search operation, M98Pxxxx (subprogram call)

is not executed. So a P/S alarm (No.060) is raised if an attempt is made

to search for a sequence number in a subprogram called by the program

currently selected.
