Max,
its possible there was a 'data' disk for zero-A, but ive never seen one...always stuck with the pig for O-A mods... as far as I know, the zero-A wasnt supported in the USA at least, on the...
Today was a good day- great day actually- we now have a USB emulator working on the old P-G MkII...whew... still one kinda minor issue with drive addressing- it tries to read floppy/emulator both as...
been fighting my pig off and on with failing disc drives for a while, today figured out whats wrong...the 30 year old discs and the drives themselves are fine- except one little tiny issue. if you...
anyone out there tell me how to tweak the analog offset? we have a Romi that had a servo amp replaced, and on boot up it drifts slowly until homed... it has a -0006 displayed when idle and PFM...
if its a fanuc zero, verify parameter 2, 12, 550, and the setting page)tvcheck/eia/iso,,, share on here, maybe someone can shed some light on it/ also, doublecheck on your program- sometimes when...
joey- you dont "need" 3 phase. use at own risk, but its worked for me since 1995 on my bridgeport, speed limited due to my 120 / 240 reverse connected transformer size, and my arcmate runs completely...
likely the zapped cable fried the xx88/xx89 uart chips on the card... a 0-c has two serial ports, think the D does also...will need to resolder as its different pins and merged on the mpg plug, then ...
ever get it running? i got one too- it appeared to be a unused virgin from 1993, 250 bucks...bought manuals off ebay, 400 total in it...jumped it to run single phase, put a transforner in it reverse...
im away on vacation, but can try to talk you thru PG stuff to make a copy...
put pmc i/j disk in the pig
press and hold 'load' till screen flashes...wait for it to load to 'fapt ladder' screen......
the 390 cards are nice- serial, alpha, or quad depending on servo firmware mounted... make sure your motor ID is correct for your drive voltage like a 20S can be a 33 or a 52 (IIRC) depending on 6057...
was about to say the noises sounded like a bad mag sensor in the motor...funny, they 'fail' from the permanent magnets dying...try sticking a screwdriver on a 'bad' one vs a new one- the bad one will...
hi- first off, I'd swap that monitor before doing anything.seriously. ..i dunno, but the xray warnings worry me- when the flyback starts failing the high voltage is crazy high causing the bright...
hardly ever check email or in here anymore, but saw a post to this old thread :) Anyways, you can fudge the drift comp parameter even if auto drift comp is turned off - doing that can recenter your...
you should be able to find transistor modules cheep on ebay, the big block is likely whats giving you the al12, but check the 3 lug transistor for braking too- sometimes chips/crap get into the...
never seen that 'ERRNR' typo before... I'd guess (just guess) a flaky rom card or maybe just a corrupted bubble... 930 is a boot error, i'd lean towards ROM :(
look over the card for...
some power supply pics of the one at home...the two units at work have newer style drives, assume this is older- has the big square eject button instead of the little 'normal' disk eject thing......
you got the ram card too?!!! thats cool. you can upload pg-ram card directly, just be careful with that write switch... we built a 300hp spinner with a 11TTF back in 90, did a lot of modifying as the...
bmi/fs3/fs6 all used different signal list addresses, some of the f/g stuff moved around iirc... biggest difference was spindle control, bmi was actually kind of messy as there was 12bit binary out,...
printable ladder/all ladder data/mnemonics only from above chips...no guarantees data/params were right, showed a error, but no number, seemed odd...didnt notice any $ names on timers- on the pg i...
wow, FS3... bet theres a ladder bit in there- i'll try to look tomorrow- dont think the fs3 book has ever been opened :)
only FS6 ive ever run into was on a hitachi seiki- guess Fanuc offered those...
I did a quick look, couldnt find the ladder bit for a 10/11...*LDSP is the name in a zero series control, at G119.0 - but couldnt find in the BMI manual for a 10/11...didnt look in the FS3/FS6...
theres a G bit you can write in the ladder, that can disable ladder display on most controls- we have a old FA drill that requires freedrate0/mdi/key or some such idiocy to display ladder...do you...
did you ever get this worked out?
just happened upon this post searching online for a copy of the AMROFTRP.DAT file as mine got corrupted along with a few others(hd failing)...printing to file would...
just saw this, havent stopped in much... that code compiled and ran in a old 486 DX4 laptop, compiled with freeware qbasic, dunno why it wouldnt run- but likely to do with computer speed.
post your...
try the robot company in Seville ohio. weve dealt with them on parts, pretty reasonable, lots of stock... bet they have extra books

pg wont do a 6, takes the old 'suitcase'. I posted a basic sourcecode that will decompile a PMC-A, memoryman did one also a lot cleaner than mine- his does both PMC-A and PMC-B... all you need for...
i dont have a book handy, but as far as i remember, only 2 buttons at boot really do anything- 3 might be weird as they are matrixed...look in a 6m operation manual(mightbe maintenance) and in the...
I just put two extra EOBs between blocks that share data.
there is a standard parameter for 'spindle control handled by CNC or PMC' or something like that- I think...if you set that you might be able to do it without the ladder stuff...i'll try to look when...
