3.1 SEQUENCE PROGRAMS
This section describes sequence programs.
3.1.1 Procedure for Creating Sequence Programs
The following flowchart illustrates the procedure for creating a
sequence program.
Start control system development
Determine targets of control (machine and CNC)
Specify control behavior (calculate the number of DI/DO points and determine scale of control)
Specify interfaces (assign DI/DO )
Create sequence program (design, address mapping, coding)
In online editing, programming and monitoring are carried out on a personal compute
connected to the CNC (PMC).
In offline editing, programming is carried out on a personal computer not connected to the
CNC (PMC).
The other PMC programming systems (for use on personal computers) include FANUC
LADDER (DOS) and FANUC LADDER-II (DOS).
Refer to the following manuals:
- FANUC LADDER (for PC) Operator's Manual (B-66131E)
- FANUC LADDER-II Operator's Manual (B-66184EN)
Enter, edit, debug, and print sequence program
