Hi all,
We are new to CNC machining and have never drip fed our Fanuc OM controller before. What changes do we have to make to allow MasterCam to drip feed to the OM controller? We have sent small programs from MC to the controller using the RS232 port which were then run from memory.

I was told to drip feed we can use the same port, but need to change several parameters in the controller. Changing these parameters will allow drip feeding, but no longer allow running from memory. What parameters would they be?

We haven't actually tried to drip feed as of yet, so it may work as is, but I wanted to get some more info before we tie up the machine playing around. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Mike
