OPERATION WITH 8050 CNC
STOPBITS (P3)
Indicates the number of stop bits used at the end of the transmitted word.
0 = 1 STOP bit.
1 = 2 STOP bits.
When working with the FLOPPY DISK UNIT, this parameter must be set to 0.
PROTOCOL (P4)
Indicates the type of communication protocol used to transmit characters.
0 = Communication protocol for general peripheral device.
1 = DNC protocol.
2 = FLOPPY DISK UNIT.
When working with the FLOPPY DISK UNIT, this parameter must be set to 2.
PWONDNC (P5)
Indicates whether the DNC function is active or not on CNC power-up.
NO
= Not active on power-up.
YES = Active on power-up.
When working with the FLOPPY DISK UNIT, this parameter must be set to YES.
DNCDEBUG (P6)
Indicates whether the CNC aborts DNC communications after an internally set period
of time without establishing communication.
It is recommended to use this safety function in every DNC communications process
and to do without it while debugging.
NO
= It is not in debugging mode and it does abort communications.
YES = It is in debugging mode and it does NOT abort communications.
The floppy disk unit has no debugging mode.
