Parameters were changed and I lost the tool change macro. How do I get the macro back in since I cannot type in any [ ] brackets and machine wont accept programs with [ ]?

[sld4121]

Is Custom Macro B turned on in the machine or are you dealing with Custom Macro A?

Since you specifically call out a 0M-D, I am assuming it is not a 0I control. That control would have parameters to change from round to square brackets.

this custom macro a ,b thing is all new to me. i dont have a clue how to turn on off or where its even at! i just want to make a ****ing tool change (curse you fanuc controller) why couldnt it just be a HAAS !

Check to see if 913 bit #7 is set.

[Toddxmann]

should #913 look like this 10000000 , because it looks like this now 01111011 like i said im a virgin at this fanuc stuff , HAAS please

[Al_The_Man]

It looks to me that 913 has been changed to something odd ball, what or how were the parameters changed?.
If you had Macro B before the 913 MSB would be set as you show it.
Sorry, can't convert it to HAAS. :tired:

Here is the Tool Change Macro from our Yang VMC 1000 with an OM-D.

Our #913 parameter is 11110110.

Good Luck,

Hi Todd,
change parameter 10 bit 4 to zero then you can load the tool change macro back to control, after that you should change 10 bit 4 back to 1 for just in case operator accidently delete the program

Todd,
This is only for your machine.
Parameter 932 = 10101001
Parameter 913 = 11110110
after that you can upload the tool change macro it should work

Ahn Vuong , thanks for all your help everything worked well , now my tool change program isnt working properly . after tool carosel comes out , machine dosent go to G28 Z0. , It just sits there !!!!! Im pretty much gonna take out the .50 caliber machine gun and fix this thing once & for-all !!!!

[avtechmachine]

After tool carosel comes out and it stop, list of DGN need to check
X0017 bit 1 = 0 Carosel home position
X0017 bit 0 = 1 Carosel out position
X0020 bit 3 = 1 ATC position
X0016 bit 3 = 1 Spindle tool unclamp
X0016 bit 2 = 0 Spindle tool clamp
X0017 bit 3 = 1 Carosel pin down position
X0017 bit 2 = 0 Carosel pin up position

i went to do a tool change and these are what DGNS changed to

X0017 10101000
X0020 00001000

this is where carousel stopped (arm out) head didnt go to G28 Z0.

We can't tell what's wrong with the machine after zero out then check DGN, you have to check DGN when tool change hung up

This is what you should do.
1. in MDI position call a tool change, but do not press cycle start yet.
2. go to DGN page then press cycle start
3. soon the tool change hung up then you need to look at the list of DGN I provide you yesterday, then we can tell which switch is not making contact

Ahn Vuong

[avtechmachine]

Going by DGN X0017 bit 0 it should be = 1 but it did not.
mean your "Magazine out" micro switch is not made, that is why tool change can't continute.
The Carousel out micro switch is locate on top of the Tool Disk but under the cover, need to check the switch problem or broken wire

Ahn ,
Long time no talk to each other . 1st , I want to thank you for all your help !!! I never would of got it fixed without your help !!! So thanks . It appears the only 2 , problems I've got now is #1 feed rate is not adjustable F10. is F10. you cant use over-ride handle at all . #2 feed hold button doesn't work , do you have any solutions for these problems ???
once again thank you , TODDXMANN

[avtechmachine]

1. I think your machine Feed rate overite switch need to replace or check any loose wire in the back.
2. Feed Hold switch is DGN X002 bit 0 and it should = 1
press on the switch if DGN doesn't change then order another switch from us
we have most of the parts in stock

Thanks
Ahn Vuong
