Fanuc HMC vs. Haas HMC G83 Q issue

[Dustin S.]

I searched the forums because I assumed this would be a common issue and didn't come back with anything useful...

 

The problem Im having is my G83 is out puttng a Q.1 which is fine for my Haas but not my Kitamura I need it to output a Q1000 Im told for it to work?

 

Any suggestions? MPmaster post

[Charlie Pierson]

change the format of the Q in the post by using a trailinng zero - non-decimal format,

 

cp

[Kannon]

in your peck parameters put in a 1000

if you want to try the post edit then:

 

!!!!!!!!! BACK UP YOUR POST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

then:

 

 

From X2MR2's mpfan.pst:

 

these lines from your post are probably the output lines for the Q

 

ppeck$ #Canned Peck Drill Cycle

pdrlcommonb

pcan1, pbld, n$, *sgdrlref, *sgdrill, pxout, pyout, pfzout, pcout,

prdrlout, *peck1$, *feed, strcantext, e$

pcom_movea

 

pchpbrk$ #Canned Chip Break Cycle

pdrlcommonb

pcan1, pbld, n$, *sgdrlref, *sgdrill, pxout, pyout, pfzout, pcout,

prdrlout, *peck1$, *feed, strcantext, e$

pcom_movea

 

peck1$ is the variable you are looking for.

 

 

fmt Q 2 peck1$ #First peck increment (positive)

this line tells the post to output a Q and format the numeric part according to format statement 2

 

This is format statement 2:

fs2 2 0.4 0.3 #Decimal, absolute, 4/3 place

 

You need to add another format statement , say, 23, to your format section

kinda like this:

 

fs2 23 0 4 0 3tn #Trailing, forced, 4/3 place

then change fmt statement to:

fmt Q 23 peck1$ #First peck increment (positive)

Charlie- editing... Ill try that

 

Brian- still puts a decimal and the control doesn't like that either

[Dustin S.]

Thanks Charlie worked great appreciate the help!

ps, you may want to save the altered post as "Kitamura.pst" or sumpin like that and do the machine/control def thing to it sos you have a Kitamura and a Haas machine groups.

 

You probly thought of that already

[Dustin S.]

I have 2 separate post 1 for each machine
