1.DISPLAY AND OPERATION

1.10.6 Overview of the History Function

It is possible to record history of operations performed by the operator, alarms that occurred, external

operator messages, etc. in order to check the history or output history data.

1

Conditions under which history is recorded

a

Display screen

History is recorded when a screen other than the operation history screen is displayed.

b Signal selection

Up to 60 input/output signals for which history is recorded can be selected.

c

Parameter setting

It is possible to set parameters in order to specify individually whether to record data change

history such as operation history of the MDI key, history of external operator messages,

addition of external alarms/messages, parameters/tool offset, workpiece offset (workpiece shift

amount)/custom macro common variable, operation history of input/output signals.

d Storage capacity

When the storage capacity is exhausted, data is deleted in the chronological order, oldest first.

A maximum of approximately 8000 history items can be recorded when, for example, only the

operation history of the MDI key is stored.

2

Data output

All the history data items stored can be output to an external input/output unit (see the section about

outputting of all history data).

3

Deletion of history

When bit 7 (EKE) of parameter No. 3195 is 1, soft key [ALL CLEAR] appears, which can be used

to delete history data.

#7 EKE The [ALL CLEAR] soft key for clearing all history data is:

0: Not displayed.

1: Displayed.

NOTE

1 History data is not cleared even after power-off.

If memory clear operation is performed, however, history data is also deleted.

2 The correct date and time need to be set on the setting screen.

3 All history data items including alarms, external operator messages, operations,

and input/output signals are integrated into one and stored in a single storage

area. Therefore, when the storage capacity is exhausted, data is deleted in the

chronological order, oldest first, regardless of the type of history.

The deletion of history data deletes all history data, so care should be executed

before performing deletion.

Delete operation cannot be performed on a per-history-type basis.

- 135 -

1.DISPLAY AND OPERATION

B-64485EN/01

1.10.6.1 Alarm history

Only alarm history is extracted from all history data recorded and displayed on the screen. When the

amount of history data exceeds the storage capacity, data is automatically deleted in the chronological

order, oldest first.

Fig. 1.10.6.1 (a) Alarm history screen

Screen display

The alarms that occurred are displayed in the chronological order, most recent first.

The following items are indicated for each alarm.

Path name (only for multi-path operation)

Date and time of alarm issuance

Alarm type and number

Alarm message

NOTE

To record external alarm and macro alarm messages as history data, set bit 3

(EAH) of parameter No. 3112 to 1 and bit 7 (HAL) of parameter No. 3196 to 0.

If the path name, axis name, or spindle name is changed after occurrence of an alarm, the new name is

displayed on the alarm history screen.

For modal 'O' data, only the first five characters are output in the case of the program name.

Deleting history data on the alarm history screen

-

Procedure

1

Display the alarm history screen.

2

Press the soft key [(OPRT)].

3

If soft key [(CLEAR)] is pressed, all history data is deleted.

NOTE

The delete operation deletes not only alarm history, but also external operator

message history, operation history, and other history data. Delete operation

cannot be performed on a per-history-type basis.

Holding alarm history

Alarm history is held in the same storage area as in other history data such as key operation history and

signal change history. Therefore, alarm history is deleted when the storage capacity is fully exhausted by

other history data.

When bit 2 (SAH) of parameter No. 11354 is set to 1, alarm history data is stored in the area specific to

alarm history and recorded in the storage area for operation history. Accordingly, up to 50 alarm history

items can be held even if the storage capacity is fully exhausted by other history data.

However, additional information (modal data, absolute coordinates, and machine coordinates during

occurrence of an alarm) is not recorded in the area specific to alarm history. (The additional information

is recorded in the storage area of operation history.)

Deleting alarm history

If history is deleted on the alarm history screen when bit 2 (SAH) of parameter No. 11354 is set to 1, only

the alarm history is deleted. Even if history is deleted on the operation history screen or external operator

message screen, alarm history is not deleted.

NOTE

1 Since alarms, operations, external operator messages, and data

change history are held in the same storage area, alarm history

may be deleted if the storage capacity is fully exhausted by other

history data.

2 The maximum number of history items that can be recorded is

shown below (when the history items are alarms).

When bit 7 (HAL) of parameter No. 3196 is 1, the maximum

number is approximately 4000.

When bit 7 (HAL) of parameter No. 3196 is 0, the maximum

number depends on the system because the modal information

and coordinates during occurrence of an alarm are also recorded.

(Example: 280 for 5-axis systems and 200 for 10-axis systems)

When bit 3 (EAH) of parameter No. 3112 is 1, however, messages

for macro alarms and external alarms are also recorded, the

maximum number is further reduced.

1.10.6.2 External operator message history

Only external operator message history and macro message history are extracted from all history data

recorded and displayed on the screen. When the amount of history data exceeds the storage capacity, data

is automatically deleted in the chronological order, oldest first.

The delete operation deletes not only external operator message history, but

also operation history, alarm history, and other history data. Delete operation

cannot be performed on a per-history-type basis.

Holding external operator message history

External operator message history is held in the same storage area as in other history data such as key

operation history and signal change history. Therefore, external operator message history is deleted when

the storage capacity is fully exhausted by other history data.

1.DISPLAY AND OPERATION

B-64485EN/01

When bit 3 (SOH) of parameter No. 11354 is set to 1, external operator message history data is stored in

the area specific to external operator message history and recorded in the storage area for operation

history. Accordingly, external operator message history items can be held even if the storage capacity is

fully exhausted by other history data.

Deleting external operator message history

If history is deleted on the external operator message history screen when bit 3 (SOH) of parameter No.

11354 is set to 1, only the external operator message history is deleted. Even if history is deleted on the

operation history screen or alarm history screen, external operator message history is not deleted.

Number of characters in external operator message history and number of

external operator messages

When bit 3 (SOH) of parameter No. 11354 is set to 1, the number of characters in external operator

message history and the number of external operator messages are set by bit 6 (MS0) and bit 7 (MS1) of

parameter No. 3113. The correspondence between the settings, the number of characters, and the number

of messages is shown in Table 1.10.6.2 (a).

1.DISPLAY AND OPERATION

1

Detailed data during occurrence of an alarm

When bit 7 (HAL) of parameter No. 3196 is 0, 10 G code modals of the block that was being

executed during occurrence of an alarm, the second auxiliary function codes D, E, F, H, M, N, O, S,

and T, absolute values, and machine coordinates are recorded together with the alarm number and

the time of occurrence.

The group numbers of 10 G code modals to be recorded are set in parameters Nos. 12990 to 12999.

If they are not set, the G code modals of groups 01 to 10 are recorded.

NOTE

For modal 'O' data, only the first five characters are recorded in the case of the

program name.

To increase the number as compared with detailed data on occurrence of an

alarm, set bit 7 (HAL) of parameter No. 3196 to 1.

2

External alarm message and macro alarm message

When bit 3 (EAH) of parameter No. 3112 is 1, external alarm messages and macro alarm messages

can be recorded as history data. However, only the first 64 characters are recorded.

NOTE

To record external alarm messages and macro alarm messages as history data,

set bit 3 (EAH) of parameter No. 3112 to 1 and bit 7 (HAL) of parameter No.

3196 to 0.

3

Changing the tool offset data

When bit 0 (HTO) of parameter No. 3196 is 1, changing the tool offset data records the changed

offset number and type, the changed tool offset data, the new tool offset data, and the change time.

4

Changing the workpiece offset, extended workpiece offset, or workpiece shift (T series) data

When bit 1 (HWO) of parameter No. 3196 is 1, changing the workpiece offset data records the

changed offset number, the changed workpiece offset data, the new workpiece offset data, and the

change time. These items are also recorded when the extended workpiece offset or workpiece shift

amount (for the T series) is changed.

5

Changing a parameter

When bit 2 (HPM) of parameter No. 3196 is 1, changing a parameter records the changed parameter

number, type (axis type, spindle type, path type, and machine group type), the changed parameter

data, the new parameter data, and the change time.

NOTE

History concerning changes during power-on and changes of the password and

keys is not recorded.

6

Changing custom macro common variables (#100 to #999)

When bit 3 (HMV) of parameter No. 3196 is 1, changing a custom macro common variable records

the changed common variable number, the changed common variable value, the new common

variable value, and the change time.

Selection by the parameter

When bit 4 (PHS) of parameter No. 3206 is 1, an input/output signal for which history is recorded can be

set by the parameter.

When a signal is selected or deselected on the operation history signal selection screen in this case, the

value of the corresponding parameter automatically changes. When the value of the parameter is changed

on the parameter screen, the display of the operation history signal selection screen changes.

This is the same as in input operations. When operation history signal selection data is input on the

operation history signal selection screen, the value of the corresponding parameter automatically changes.

When the value of parameter is input on the parameter screen, the display of the operation history signal

selection screen changes.
