Fanuc 16-T Control Question

[Camgal_59]

Hello,

 

We have a CNC Studer Grinder that has a Fanuc 16-T Control.

The oil filter on this machine needs to be changed every 2000 hours of operation.

 

My question:

Is there a way to reset the hours of operation on this control back to zero, WITHOUT .. having to turn off Peewee and then physically change the internal parameter?

 

Is there maybe a macro that I could write and upload into the control that would be able to reset the parameter?

 

Thanks for any help you can offer!!

Hopefully you have macro B option. Be weally weally carefull

O1000 NC Program number G10L50; (Parameter input mode ON) N1320 P1 R50; (1320 is parameter number, P1-is for the 1st axis within the parameter or X-axis) (R25=value to “25”). G11; (Parameter input mode OFF)

Example G10 Program to change a parameter with 8 bits

O1000 NC Program number G10L50; (Parameter input mode ON) N0012R11001100 (0012 is parameter number, 11001100=bit 0 to bit8). G11; (Parameter input mode OFF)

Thank you!

 

That is what I was looking for.

 

I don't think that will be an uploaded program.

I will probably key it in MDI to reset the parameter when neccessary.

Might consider making it a 9000 program number locked down and you could even assign a g code to it.

just a thought, one typo in mdi could set an arbitrary parameter and get you in some trouble that you might not realize till possible crash??

9000 program .. AWESOME idea!

[Why DIDN'T I think of that?!] ... WHY didn't I think of that?

Thank you very much!!

Or you could asign an M number to the 9000 prog - such as M999

boy i've got some fanuc learning to do...

 

how can a person set a G code or an M code to a 9000 program?

[RaiderX]

Its setup in the settings page or parameter page? cant remember which. you can assign g or m codes to 9000 series programs. #6050 rings a bell but it has been a looong time for me. Be carefull with these their are usually some in use and could cause a multitude of ? problems if you walk on something existing.

 

Newbeee is correct an M code (misc code) for this case would be more appropriate.

Dig out the yellow books.

6071 > 6079 = M Codes to call subs 9001, 9002 etc
