Overview of the History Function (15-inch Display Unit) 

 
The history function makes it possible to record a history of 
operations performed by the operator, alarms and external operator 
messages issued, and other history data, check the history, and output 
history data.

 

 

1 

Conditions for recording history 
a Display 

screen 

 

A history of screens other than the operation history screen 
is recorded. 

b Signal 

selection 

 

Up to 60 I/O signals can be selected so that they can be 
recorded in history data. 

c Parameter 

setting 

 

With parameters, it is possible to separately set whether to 
record an MDI key operation history and an external 
operator message history, add external alarms and messages, 
and record data modification histories such as operation 
histories of parameters, tool offsets, workpiece offsets 
(workpiece shift amounts), custom macro common variables, 
and I/O signals. 

d Storage 

capacity 

 

When the storage capacity becomes full, data is deleted in 
order from the oldest data.Up to about 8000 items of history 
data can be recorded if the data consists of history data of 
MDI key operations only. 

 
2 Data 

output 

 

All history data stored can be output to external input/output 
devices. (See Subsection 12.4.30.5, "Outputting all history 
data".)

Erasure of history data 

 

If bit 7 (EKE) of parameter No. 3195 is set to 1, soft key 
[CLEAR] is displayed, allowing the user to erase history data.

- 1859 - 

NOTE 

1  History data remains even after the power is turned 

off. 
Memory clear operation, however, erases history 
data as well. 

2  Set the time and date correctly on the setting 

screen. 

3  All history data including data of alarms, external 

operator messages, operations, and I/O signals is 
integrated and maintained in a single storage area. 
When the storage capacity becomes full, history 
data is erased in order from the oldest data 
regardless of the history type. 
When history data is erased, all history data is 
erased, so care should be taken. 
It is impossible to erase only a specific history.
