Re: Help with tool change macro
In that case you probably want your PLC program to trigger an immediate Fault if the monitoring switch is tripped and the spindle zero-speed signal is not closed.

Re: Trouble creating Air Blast Macro
You will have to look at what value you have in Machine Parameter 18.

Re: Hardinge CHNC4 Retrofit
Is there a way to see an index pulse? On the PID Configuration screen, and on the F3/Encoder screen below it, you will see an asterisk next to the axis label in the left-most column whenever the index pulse is present for that axis. The index pulse, or lack thereof, will not cause servo instability...

Re: Trouble creating Air Blast Macro
That has nothing to do with the M8.
It was the result of the M3 (spindle start) command on the previous line, combined with your probe detect input.
The control thinks you have a touch probe plugged in, so it would be a bad idea to let the spindle start.

Re: Help with tool change macro
M5 generally just means "begin stopping the spindle", i.e. turn off the run-forward and run-reverse commands. A typical M5 does not sit around and wait for the spindle to finish decelerating to a stop. You can, of course, add that. The simplest way is to configure and wire a "zero spe...

Re: AllinOne, Add 1616 and Delta C2000 with PG01L card
A very cursory review of your PLC program suggests that a complete tool change (orient, followed by tool unclamp) is the only scenario that the author of that PLC program considered. The PLC program automatically cancels the orient request, and the orient command, shortly after unclamping the drawba...

More likely Parameter 411.

Re: Multi Spindle CNC Router control options
Keith,
What can you tell us about M333, and whether it could be applied to this type of machine?

Re: Hardinge CHNC II+ Hickory LeadShine EL7 Retrofit
Okay. This is probably an omission in my Hickory/CHNC program. I think there is a circular dependency between enabling the MPG with the axis-select knob, and enabling it with the VCP MPG key. This issue would be unique to Gary's program for this project, and not generally representative of Centroid ...

Re: Hardinge CHNC4 Retrofit
Check that the encoder is securely clamped to the end of the ballscrew (i.e. check and reseat the setscrews in the shaft collar).
Check belt tension between the X servo motor and the ballscrew.
