Key Input and Input Buffer 

 
When an address and a numeric key are pressed, the character 
corresponding to that key is input once into the key input buffer. The 
contents of the key input buffer is displayed at the bottom of the 
screen. 
In order to indicate that it is key input data, a ">" symbol is displayed 
immediately in front of it.    A "_" is displayed at the end of the key 
input data indicating the input position of the next character. 

 

Fig. 2.3.4 (a)    Key input buffer display 

 

  - Switching between upper and lower key characters 

To input the lower character of the keys that have two characters 
inscribed on them, first press the 

 key and then the key in 

question. 
When the 

 key is pressed, "_" indicating the next character 

input position changes to "^". Now lowercase characters can be 
entered (shift state). 
When a character is input in shift status the shift status is canceled.  
Furthermore, if the 

  key is pressed in shift status, the shift status 

is canceled. 
It is possible to input up to 128 characters at a time in the key input 
buffer. 
Press the 

  key to cancel a character or symbol input in the key 

input buffer. 
 
(Example) 
 

When the key input buffer displays 

 >N001X100Z_ 
 

and the cancel 

  key is pressed, Z is canceled and 

 >N001X100_ 
 is 

displayed.

  - Switching between uppercase and lowercase alphabetic characters 

When entering alphabetic characters, the user can switch between 
uppercase and lowercase. 
By pressing the uppercase/lowercase switch key 

, the display of 

the key input buffer changes to enable uppercase or lowercase 
alphabetic characters to be entered as described below. 
Example) 

  A> A B C _

 a>  a b c _ 
 

State enabling lowercase input

Warning Messages 

 
After a character or number has been input from the MDI panel, a data 
check is executed when 

  key or a soft key is pressed.    In the 

case of incorrect input data or the wrong operation a flashing warning 
message will be displayed on the status display line.

EXTERNAL I/O DEVICES 

 
External I/O devices such as a memory card are available. 
By using an external I/O device such as a memory card, the following 
data can be input or output: 
1.  

Programs 

2. Offset 

data 

3. Parameters 
4.  Custom macro common variables 
For how to input or output data and input data from or output it to a 
memory card, see III-8. 
 

 - Parameter setting 

Before an external input/output device can be used, parameters must 
be set as follows.

CNC

 

 
This CNC has a total of two channels of reader/puncher interfaces.    It 
also has a memory card interface. The input/output device to be used 
is specified by setting the channel (interface) connected to that device 
in setting parameter I/O CHANNEL. 
The specified data, such as a baud rate and the number of stop bits, of 
an input/output device connected to a specific channel must be set in 
parameters for that channel in advance. (These settings are not 
required for the memory card interface.) 
For channel 1, two combinations of parameters to specify the 
input/output device data are provided. 
The following shows the interrelation between the reader/puncher 
interface parameters for the channels.

Turning on the Power 

 

Procedure of turning on the power 

 

Procedure 

1 

Check that the appearance of the CNC machine tool is normal.   

 

(For example, check that front door and rear door are closed.) 

2  Turn on the power according to the  manual issued by the 

machine tool builder. 

3 

After the power is turned on, check that the position screen is 
displayed. An alarm screen is displayed if an alarm occurs upon 
power-on.  

 

 

Fig. 2.5.1 (a)    Position screen (for machining center system) 

 
4 

Check that the fan motor is rotating. 

 

 WARNING 

 

Until the positional or alarm screen is displayed at 
the power on, do not touch them.    Some keys are 
used for the maintenance or special operation 
purpose.  When they are pressed, unexpected 
operation may be caused.
