Fanuc 0t Maintenance Manual
Just wondering could there be a parameter library in my Fanuc OT control that I can't see by pressing the parameter key and scrolling? The reason I ask is I though I don't have a parameter manual my maintenance manuals list all the parameters I can find on the screen, yet flipping all the pages and reading the descriptions I can't find parameters for turning down the rapid feed rates or any acceleration deceleration parameters. My machine only displays parameters 001-999 and 8100-8299. I found an 0i parameter list that shows 1400's and 1600's controlling these settings. Unfortunately my controller is a 1993 that appears to be 2 years before Fanucs had the descriptions on the screen next to the parameter numbers. My controller doesn't have a system key or a soft key for parameter number search. Horrible subject, I stumbled over that, too.
In my case there was a set of X and Z parameters in a mask that prevented the tool from moving closer towards the chuck than, what was it, 26 and 10 mm, respectively (or so). The programmer made codes with the tool moving from center outwards for planing!
I almost went berserk since I wasn’t able ONE to set the values to Zero, and TWO to find back to that page. The boss was the programmer. He had absolutely no sense for giving me a chance on the issue, so I had to watch the inserts go whining with an cutting angle of 5 degrees! There must be access to those parameters.
Problem is that paperwork and control are never made by the same person. You need a knowledgeable Fanuc representative.
Hi, I was just recently given the opportunity to acquire a 1990 Colchester CNC 3000 machine with a Fanuc OT-A control, for the price of shipping it. In spite of some worries about the state of the machine, after cleaning / lubing, reseating some cables and inserting a key in the Z-Axis shaft, all now works, and the machine seems to be fine for the work I'll be doing with it. The problem is, the only manual that came with the machine was the limited Colchester CNC manual, and no copy of the parameters.
I have taken a manual copy of all param / diagnostic values, but have seen mention of the controls ability to send these by RS232 to my PC. I have looked around for somewhere I can buy a set of manuals for this control, but haven't had any luck. Is anyone here aware of somewhere I can purchase a set of manuals for this control? Specifically the Operators manual (B-55254E), Maintenance Manual (B-55255E), the Description manual (B-55252E), and a possible parameters manual, if it's available?
