Once the data necessary for a connected servo amplifier unit has been set
up or confirmed, it is possible to discontinue communication with the
power mate CNC manager (PMM) to give priority to those commands
sent from t he ladder program of the CNC to slaves. This is done by setting
bit 3 of parameter P960 to 1. Communication between the CNC and a
servo amplifier unit via an FANUC I/O Link is surrendered to the ladder
program.
When this parameter is 1, only communication--independent items, such
as a title and function name, are displayed on the screen. The following
message appears to indicate that communication has been discontinued.
COMMUNICATION PROHIBITED BY P960#3
So that the power motion manager functions can run properly, it is
necessary to set the following data on the CNC parameter screen.
Parameter P 960
(1) Bit 0 (SLV) (screen display)
0 : One slave per screen
1 : Four slaves per screen
(2) B its 1 and 2 (MD1 and MD2) (data input/output destinations)
Bit2 Bit1
MD2 MD1
0 0 CNC memory (NOTE)
0 0 Memory card
(3) Bit 3 (PMM) (whether to disable the PMM)
0: Enable
1 : Disable
NOTE
A data file is saved a s a program to a memory area. The
CNC program list screen can be used to check which
memory area is used for a particular data file.
When a power motion manager function is used, it is impossible to use
an FANUC I/O Link--based data input/output function.
