Re: OPCON 15374

Yeah for some reason it doesn't work, both sales and tech suppt confirmed this. I'm not talking about any ol mpg, I mean the pendant that comes with the m400 can't be used with the WMPG. If this isn't the case, I would really really like to implement both.

Re: OPCON 15374

Oh duh, that's a great point. Awesome.

Do you think this code change will eventually allow a (m400 pendant) wired MPG and a wireless MPG to coexist?

Re: OPCON 15374

Just to add to this, in the real world, PLC operators and indicators are almost certainly 24v. 5v is cool at home, and we all know raw LEDs use much lower voltages, but if there are going to be outputs and inputs, they need to handle 24v. I understand this causes issues with USB, so this means exter...

Re: Parameter 78

I set P78 to 0,1,5, etc, but that didn't help much. I think the issue was that the min/max spindle speed is what determines the 0-10v scale, (in Setup - Motor). I was hoping it was smarter than that. If there's a parameter we can adjust to slave the 0-10v to the encoder pulses, that would be a lot c...

Re: OPCON 15374

Yeah but I'd like to add it to retrofits that usually already have button panels and the spacing is going to be different. ANYWAY, yeah how do I get in on this beta action? I'll buy one.

OPCON and USB-BOB

When can we buy this? Will we be able to use our own operators/buttons?

Parameter 78 - Solved

Can someone explain P 78 in practical terms for me? This happens on several lathes for me, so I'm curious as to the behavior why. Here are some conditions: Set P78 to 1 Goto MDI M03 S30 CYCLE START Spindle goes to 30 rpm. Set P78 to 7 Goto MDI M03 S30 CYCLE START Spindle goes to 55+ rpm, I freak out...

Re: Spindle Jog?

I'll setup an AUX key and then set P760 to 10 rpm or so and this should do it. Yeah this is very good. Simple. I'll follow up after the weekend. Thank you very much.

Re: Spindle Jog?

Hmm, not sure what I am doing wrong here. So far I have: P313 = 6 P35 = 6 I set axis 6 (it has a little S next to it) in the motor CFG to also say C P167 = 19 I see the C axis in the DRO, but it has a huge value (not 360) and it doesn't move when I select Axis 6 on the MPG. Is there a TB or a guide ...

Re: Spindle Jog?

Okay, I think that this is set via P35 and P312. I will try this weekend during downtime unless someone has some more insight.
