D Setting an editing range

The setting of an editing range start point with [CRSR∼] can be changed

freely until an editing range end point is set with [∼CRSR] or [∼BTTM].

If an editing range start point is set after an editing range end point, the

editing range must be reset starting with a start point.

The setting of an editing range start point and end point remains valid until

an operation is performed to invalidate the setting.

One of the following operations invalidates a setting:

D An edit operation other than address search, word search/scan, and

search for the start of a program is performed after a start point or end

point is set.

D Processing is returned to operation selection after a start point or end

point is set.

D Without specifying a

In copying program and moving program, if [EXEC] is pressed without

specifying a program number after an editing range end point is set, a

program with program number O0000 is registered as a work program.

This O0000 program has the following features:

D The program can be edited in the same way as a general program. (Do

not run the program.)

D If a copy or move operation is newly performed, the previous

information is deleted at execution time, and newly set information

(all or part of the program) is re-registered. (In merge operation, the

previous information is not deleted.) However, the program, when

selected for foreground operation, cannot be re-registered in the

background.

(A BP/S140 alarm is raised.) When the program is

re-registered, a free area is produced. Delete such a free area with the

RESET

key.

normal editing operation.

When editing a custom macro already entered, the user can move the

cursor to each editing unit that starts with any of the following characters

and symbols:

(a) Address

(b) # located at the start of the left side of a substitution statement

(d) First character of IF, WHILE, GOTO, END, DO, POPEN, BPRNT,

DPRNT and PCLOS

On the CRT screen, a blank is placed before each of the above

characters and symbols.

(Example) Head positions where the cursor is placed

D Abbreviations of custom

When a custom macro word is altered or inserted, the first two characters

macro word

or more can replace the entire word.

Namely,

WHILE → WH GOTO → GO XOR → XO AND → AN

SIN → SI

ASIN → AS

COS → CO ACOS → AC

9. EDITING PROGRAMS

Editing a program while executing another program is called background

9.8

editing. The method of editing is the same as for ordinary editing

BACKGROUND

(foreground editing).

EDITING

A program edited in the background should be registered in foreground

program memory by performing the following operation:

During background editing, all programs cannot be deleted at once.

Procedure for background editing

Enter EDIT or MEMORY mode.

Memory mode is allowed even while the program is being executed.

Press function keym

PROG

Press soft key [(OPRT)], then press soft key [BG-EDT].

The background editing screen is displayed

(PROGRAM

(BG-EDIT) is displayed at the top left of the screen).

Edit a program on the background editing screen in the same way as

for ordinary program editing.

After editing is completed, press soft key [(OPRT)], then press soft

key [BG-EDT]. The edited program is registered in foreground

program memory.

Explanation

D Alarms during

Alarms that may occur during background editing do not affect

background editing

foreground operation. Conversely, alarms that may occur during

foreground operation do not affect background editing. In background

editing, if an attempt is made to edit a program selected for foreground

operation, a BP/S alarm (No. 140) is raised. On the other hand, if an

attempt is made to select a program subjected to background editing

during foreground operation (by means of subprogram calling or program

number search operation using an external signal), a P/S alarm (Nos. 059,

078) is raised in foreground operation. As with foreground program

editing, P/S alarms occur in background editing. However, to distinguish

these alarms from foreground alarms, BP/S is displayed in the data input

line on the background editing screen.

FUNCTION

parameter NE9 cannot be set to 0. In this state, program Nos. O9000 to

O9999 cannot be modified unless the correct keyword is set.

A locked state means that the value set in the parameter PASSWD differs

from the value set in the parameter KEYWD. The values set in these

parameters are not displayed. The locked state is released when the value

already set in the parameter PASSWD is also set in parameter KEYWD.

When 0 is displayed in parameter PASSWD, parameter PASSWD is not

set.

Procedure for locking and unlocking

Locking

Set the MDI mode.

Enable parameter writing. At this time, P/S alarm No. 100 is issued

on the CNC.

Set parameter No. 3210 (PASSWD). At this time, the locked state is

set.

Disable parameter writing.

Press the

RESET

key to release the alarm state.

Unlocking

Set the MDI mode.

Enable parameter writing. At this time, P/S alarm No. 100 is issued

on the CNC.

In parameter No. 3211 (KEYWD), set the same value as set in

parameter No. 3210 (PASSWD) for locking. At this time, the locked

state is released.

Set bit 4 (NE9) of parameter No. 3202 to 0.

Disable parameter writing.

Press the

RESET

key to release the alarm state.

Subprograms from program Nos. 9000 to 9999 can now be edited.

OPERATION

9. EDITING PROGRAMS

Explanations

D Setting parameter

The locked state is set when a value is set in the parameter PASSWD.

PASSWD

However, note that parameter PASSWD can be set only when the locked

state is not set (when PASSWD = 0, or PASSWD = KEYWD). If an

attempt is made to set parameter PASSWD in other cases, a warning is

given to indicate that writing is disabled. When the locked state is set

(when PASSWD = 0 and PASSWD = KEYWD), parameter NE9 is

automatically set to 1. If an attempt is made to set NE9 to 0, a warning

is given to indicate that writing is disabled.

D Changing parameter

Parameter PASSWD can be changed when the locked state is released

PASSWD

(when PASSWD = 0, or PASSWD = KEYWD). After step 3 in the

procedure for unlocking, a new value can be set in the parameter

PASSWD. From that time on, this new value must be set in parameter

KEYWD to release the locked state.

D Setting 0 in parameter

When 0 is set in the parameter PASSWD, the number 0 is displayed, and

PASSWD

the password function is disabled. In other words, the password function

can be disabled by either not setting parameter PASSWD at all, or by

setting

0 in parameter PASSWD after step 3 of the procedure for

unlocking. To ensure that the locked state is not entered, care must be

taken not to set a value other than 0 in parameter PASSWD.

D Re-locking

After the locked state has been released, it can be set again by setting a

different value in parameter PASSWD, or by turning the power to the NC

off then on again to reset parameter KEYWD.

CAUTION

Once the locked state is set, parameter NE9 cannot be set

to 0 and parameter PASSWD cannot be changed until the

locked state is released or the memory all-clear operation

is performed. Special care must be taken in setting

parameter PASSWD.
