Changing CNC Parameters:
Place the NC in MDI mode
Press the SETTING function key until the "SETTING (HANDY)" page is displayed.
Position the cursor on "PARAMETER WRITE" field. Set to 1 by pressing the "ON:1" softkey.
(If the screen changes to an alarm message, press SETTING to return)
Cursor down to TV Check. Set to Off (0) by pressing the "OFF:0" softkey.
Cursor down to Punch Code. Set to ISO (1) by pressing the "ON:1" softkey.
Cursor down to I/O Channel. Set to 0 by pressing the "OFF:0" softkey.
Press the SYSTEM key once, then the PARAM softkey.
Find and input the following parameters. Be sure to remember that bit 7 is the leftmost bit and bit 0 is the rightmost bit on parameters where individual bits are entered.
Description of general communication parameters:
20 = 0 (Channel 1) - this is a duplicate of the I/O Channel field on the SETTING(HANDY) screen.
100 bit 7 = 1 (NULL is ignored)
100 bit 6 = 0 (RESET can stop operation)
100 bit 5 = 1 (DNC mode fills buffer)
100 bit 3 = 1 (LF)
100 bit 2 = 0 (LF)
100 bit 1 = 0 (no TV parity checking)
101 bit 7 = 1 (no NULL feed before/after program)
101 bit 3 = 0 (EIA or ISO automatically detected/7 data bits)
101 bit 0 = 1 (2 stop bit)
102 = 0 (RS232 DC code control)
103 = 11 (9600 baud rate)
110 bit 0 = 0 (unified control of IO channels)
When done, press the SETTING key to return to the "SETTING(HANDY)" screen. Select the "PARAMETER WRITE" field and set to 0.
Press RESET to clear alarms.
Outputting CNC Programs:
To output a program, set the CNC to "edit" mode. Press the PROG key on the control panel. Display the program you wish to send on the screen by keying in the program number then pressing the down-arrow (next line) button. Press the Operate (OPRT) softkey. Use the right arrow keys (in softkey row under LCD screen) until PUNCH appears. Press PUNCH, EXECUTE.
Inputting CNC Programs:
To input a program, set the CNC to "edit" mode. Press the PROG key on the control panel. Press the Operate (OPRT) softkey. Use the right arrow keys (in softkey row under LCD screen) until READ appears. Press READ, EXECUTE.
Pinout includes RTS/CTS Handshaking
