Operation

Main Interface

This is the interface showing after booting without a boot picture. It shows the coordinates of each axis, F speed and rate, S speed and rate, as well as the condition of input and output port. P1000 means the program currently running; 123 means the input method. You can get into the AUTO, JOG, PROG, PAR, USB as well as password interface from here.

Auto

In Auto Interface, Press start to run the last read program, Press Pause to Stop.

Step

Positive display means consecutive operation. A negative display means operating command by command. When it is the negative display, press Start once, one program line will be executed.

Edit

• Press Enter to insert a new line.
• Long press DEL to delete a line.
• Press←→↑↓to move the cursor
• Top: To the fist line
• BTM: to the last line
• Test: See if there are any mistake
• Save: Save program
• Auto: Into Auto Interface.

Jog

• Press X, Y, Z, and C to choose the relevant axis.
• S for feeding rate gaining, N for feeding rate decreasing. (10%-150%)
• G for spindle rate gaining, M for spindle rate decreasing. (10%-150%)
• Press Shift to change output port, press Enter to change from ON or OFF.
• Press ← and → for consecutive running.
• Press ↑ and ↓ for jogging, define the jog distance in PAR-Ctrl-Jog+Distance; define jog speed in PAR-Speed-Jog.

Speed

Speed: Negative display means manual high speed, positive display means manual low speed. Press ← and → for consecutive running.

MPG

Press MPG, then move the wheel up, the axis chosen move positively, move the wheel down, the chosen axis move negatively. Press X10X100 to change the cardinal number shown on the top of the screen.

BPZ

Press this key on the chosen axis go back to the reference point at highest speed. Define the highest speed in Parameters-Speed.

All 0

Press this key the chosen axis go back to the reference point at highest speed. Define the highest speed in Parameters-Speed. F is the combined speed of all axis.

BMZ

Return to machine zero. The chosen axis will move at BMZ High Speed to go back to machine zero, then touch the switch and move at BMZ Low Speed, finally stop on the switch. In order to use this function, the X 0/Y 0/Z 0/C 0 has to be set as “On” in Parameters-Ctrl; Set BMZ High and BMZ Low in Parameters-Speed; Set the direction in Parameters-Ctrl-X BMZ

• X/Y/Z/C Numerator: Electric gear ratio (1-99999)
• X/Y/Z/C Denominator: Electric gear ratio(1-99999)
• X/Y/Z/C Reference:In manual operation, long press X/Y/Z/C to clear the coordinates and show this value; or in machine zero, after hit the switch, it will show this value.
•  X/Y/Z/C Backlash: Backlash to make it more precise
• X/Y/Z/C Boot Zero: 0 means the axis will not go back to machine zero after booting; 1 means the axis will go back to machine zero after booting
• X/Y/Z/C BMZ Dir: 0 means the axis go back to machine zero towards negative direction; 1 means the axis go back to machine zero towards a positive direction
• Speed+Time(ms): time use for the motor to reach F speed
• Jog+Distance: in manual operation, increment for jogging. Unit of it is dependent on the electric gear ratio.
•  Language: English (0)or Chinese(1)

The setting of Electronic Gear Ratio

Setting the electronic gear is to set different data unit for different machines. The different axis of the same machine can be set based on a different unit. For example, axis A can be set as mm, axis B can be set as angle, and axis C can be set as round.
How to set the numerator and denominator of electronic gear ratio:
Pulse needed for the motor to turn one round to the same direction
Distance moved when the motor turn one round to the same direction(μm)
The numerator and denominator both should be an integer between 1 and 99999.
Ex. 1 Screw Transmission
Stepper motor stepping is 5000, or servo motor 5000 pulse/round, screw pitch is 6mm, reduction ratio is 1:1, then,
5000 → 5
610001.0 → 6
Ex. 2 Rack and Pinion
Stepper motor stepping is 6000, or servo motor 6000 pulse/round, gear teeth number is 20, m=p/π=2, then
6000 → 1 → 107 → 107
10002023.14159265 → 20.943951 → 2241.00276 → 2241
Ex. 3 Rotary Angle
Stepper motor stepping is 5000, or servo motor 5000 pulse/round, the reduction ratio is 1:30, then,
500030 → 5
360*1000 → 12

Speed

• X/Y/Z/C Highest: The highest speed of x-axis motor. When the system is operating, speed will not exceed this number no matter what F you set.
• Start(mm/min)Speed during Spd+Time
• Man High: Manual high speed
• Man Low: Manual low speed
• BMZ High: Go to machine zero at high speed.
• BMZ low: Go back to machine zero first at high speed, through zero switches,es and move back at low speed. Finally, slider will stop on the switch.
• BMZ Mode: two modes to go back to machine zero, through the switch or not. Through switch(0): slider will stop on the switch. Not trough switch(1): Slider will stop before the switch.
• S High Speed: The highest speed of the spindle

Input

This function enables user to set various kind of switches easily. Define the I/O port according to the following form.
External Big switch is needed to finish external control. An external switch is connected in the way of normal open. Press R to change off into on, and S to choose N.O.(Normal Open). Then choose the IO Port number in the blank.
Note: For safety consideration, limit and emergency stop input is usually set as N.C.(Normal Close).
