Additional Notes

Optional RS232 connection:

Changing CNC Parameters:

To change parameters on any 6-series control, you must first turn on a parameter write-enable toggle switch on the CNCs main (mother) board. This switch is clearly marked on the board, and must not confused with the bubble memory free-mode (BMU) switch, also on the main mother board. When you turn on the Parameter Write/Enable switch, the CNC will display the alarm page. An alarm #100 is displayed until the Parameter Write/Enable switch is turned off and the RESET button is pressed. Automatic operation is inhibited while the Parameter switch is on. 

With the Parameter Write/Enable switch turned on, and the mode-select switch in MDI mode, press the PARAM button, and page down to parameter 24. The settings shown here are for 4800 baud, 1 stop-bit, DC codes enabled (Xon/Xoff). The bits marked "x" are for another purpose, or not assigned. Don't change these. 
002 x x 1 x x x x x
024 x x x x x x x 0 (0 = 1 stop bit, 1 = 2 stop bits) 
025 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 (4800 baud. See chart in Maintenance. Manual) 
026 0 x x x x x x x (0 = use DC codes, 1 = don't use DC codes)


To change any of these parameters, first key in the letter "P", then enter your new data, then press INPUT. Binary parameters are keyed in left-to-right as shown. 

Once these parameters are entered, turn off the Parameter Write/Enable toggle switch, and press the RESET button to clear the Alarm #100. Also check the settings on the first SETTING screen, and be sure they are set as shown below. Display the settings by pressing the SET key.


Outputting CNC Programs:

To output a program, set the CNC to "edit" mode. Press the PROG key on the control panel. Type in Oxxxx, then press PUNCH.


Inputting CNC Programs:

To input a program, set the CNC to "edit" mode. Press the PROG key on the control panel. Type in the Oxxx number, then press READ.
