2.6 PMC MESSAGE MULTI-LANGUAGE DISPLAY FUNCTION
The PMC message multi-language display function manages the
language of alarm message and operator message, switching the
language according to the language setting of CNC using message data
defined in various languages. The message data for this function is
stored into a memory card format data, separated from the data of
ladder program, and loaded into CNC individually. Up to 2000
messages can be registered for each language.
This function, when compared with the conventional multi-language
display capability based on the message shift function, has the
following features:
• Because “A” address area does not need to be divided for
messages of each language, all bits of “A” address can be used for
each language, and available number of message is increased.
• Switching the language of alarm messages and operator messages
do not need power cycle of CNC, and the language follows the
setting of CNC display language dynamically.
• A message data file can be replaced, independently of ladder
program.
NOTE
This function is optional. This function cannot be
used with a PMC and CNC software not
supporting this function.
