hi, im new to this forum but ive had a search and i cant find the specific information i need. ive recently purchased an older hitachi vk45 with a fanuc om-d controller. when i try to run a helical program either milling or threading the controller runs all the z feed first then trys to run the g02. threading causes an alarm and does not feed at all.the manual i have for the om controller says the om-d series-1 controller did not have a helical option, the other 2 series did.the operator manual for the vk45 does not list the series,in fact it is not very specific about which controller its using. it is in fact close to the worst manual ive ever seen. the maintenance manual does not seem to list a parameter for helical motion, but it also does not list any parameters between about 300-500. i notice other people have had similar problems, is there a solution? also where would i find a complete list of parameters? hope some one can help. thanks
