1.2 PERIPHERAL MODE
In order to access this operating mode, machine parameter "P100(1)" must be set to "0"
indicating that the DNC feature is not available.
With this operating mode, it is possible to transfer part-programs, machine-parameters and
the tool table out to a peripheral device (cassette reader FAGOR LS80, PC, terminal, etc.)
through the RS232C serial line
To do this, the machine parameters corresponding to the RS232C serial line must be set
accordingly:
P70
Communications speed (baudrate) in baud.
P59(7)
Number of data bits.
P59(5)
Parity
P59(6)
Even or Odd parity
P59(8)
Number of stop bits
Bear in mind that the CNC must be off when connecting or disconnecting any peripheral
device to it.
To access the peripheral mode, press the
key.
The CNC will show the following information:
The upper display indicates that the RS232C line is
selected.
The lower display shows the two possible options:
0 -> Input, 1 -> Output.
Select the "0-Input" option to receive information from a peripheral device and the "1-
Output" to send information out to a peripheral device
