Thanks so much. I will try it when I get to work today.
I am running a fanuc 15m controller on a Toyoda FA550 machine. I am loading programs through the RS232 port using Gibbscam software. Each time I re-process a program in Gibbs, it assigns it the same...
I am using taper with fillets, as I have a .125 radius at the top. I think I am using swept shape, but will have to look when I get to work tonight
I am using Gibbs cam to 3d surface on a Johnford VMC with a Fanuc OM controller and am having a problem. I am trying to cut a round tapered hole 1.5 inches deep 3.75 dia. with an 8 degree taper. When...
Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure that I can adjust the machine home position because I may be too close to the hard limit to be able to move that far in the direction I need to go.
Hi; I am trying to help get a Johnford vertical machining center up and running that has been setting for quite a while. The batteries were dead and the 1815 axis home parameters had to be reset....
yes it is the location of the laser. I was thrown into this deal after the guy who originally was involved refused to have any more to do with it, and the guy on the other end (who wrote the macro...
Sorry it took so long to reply. I got called out of town unexpectedly. Should have stated up front that the program is metric, so the z 43.5 is millimeters not inches
Hi; I've got a problem with a haas machining center that I have been tasked to edit some code on. At the risk of sounding like a total newbie, I don't know at this minute what model the machine is,...
Thanks for the reply. I checked parameter 16 and it already appears to be set at 0. I was going to try to put a value in to see if it acted differently, but I couldn't figure out how to enable PWE....
Hi;
I'm running a Toyoda F550A machining center with a Fanuc 15-M controller. Every couple of minutes the display screen goes blank and I have to hit one of the buttons to bring it back up. I...
I think Timlkallam may have answered my question. I am setting the work offset by moving to the location, and then going to MDI and typing G92 x0yo. If I understand correctly, that method will be...
yes I have replaced the batteries. It didn't make a difference.
no, I'm losing my g54 absolute coordinates
I've been working on a machine with a fanuc o-m controller for about a week trying to get it up and running. We got this machine from another plant in our corporation, and nobody in house really knew...
I have been struggling with the same problem for a couple of days, and had been reading everything I could find on this forum pertaining to this issue, until I read your post last night.
I went...
I finally had a chance to try it again today, and it worked! It now zero returns perfectly. Thanks so much for the help.
I've got a couple of other problems with the machine, but I'm hopeful to...
Ok, I tried the power up while holding the two buttons. After doing it, I tried to zero return with the console button. It didn't throw an error this time, but it over traveled on both the X and Y...

I'm hoping someone will be able to help...
