mori seiki SH400 programing

[thundercat]

Have a new to me SH400 horizontal mill.MSC 518 control. I want to program the machine to identify the pallet in machine and index the pallet out at the end of a program,any ideas?M30 will rotate out only if staging light is on,then gives error warning program not found.

Thanks

On your setting page, you assign programs to pallets. You WANT that button pushed to cycle the pallets. If not, severe injury could result.

 

Also, there s a MACRO variable that keeps track of what pallet is in the machine, I believe it's either #147 or #148. If it's a 1 Pallet A is in. If it's a 0 pallet B is in.
