Need Help!- 078 NUMBER NOT FOUND with M100 ON FANUC 18M

[dung_ninhbinh]

Hello everyone!
I am Nguyen from Vietnam. Who can help me repair some problems? My CNC’s serial is Fanuc 18M. (Anderson Industrial Corp)
Machine Type: NC-2525TC2+G/PT
Machine Number: FAANCPT92077
I have machine’s parameter. The last time, machine had an error 915 SRAM PARITY and I repaired it. But after, when I write M100 (Call subprogram waiting) then “078 NUMBER NOT FOUND” message on screen. I can not use M100 code.
M00, M01, M02, M03, M11, M12…. M98, M99... OK. Problem with M100 code.
0078 NUMBER NOT FOUND on help menu description:
“Function: Subprogram call
Alarm: the program number or sequence number designated by P in block M98, M99, M65, and M66 cannot be found. Or sequence number designated by goto cannot be found.”
What can I do now? Can you help me?
And I need file post processor for CNC FANUC Oi-TC in AlphaCAM, who can share for me?
Thank you very much!

Possibly when you repaired the SRAM you lost parameters and the option parameter for subprograms was not turned back on. I do not know which parameter that is.
Hope this helps.

I have not seen the use of M100. What does it do? Possibly it is machine specific.

If M98/M198/G65/G66 are working, it should be enough.

Maybe M100 is an macro or subprogram call, and the program it's calling is no longer in memory?

Check parameters 6050-6059, and 6080-6089 to see if one of them = 100.

6050 > O9010
...
...
6059 > O9019

6080 > O9020
...
...
6089 > O9029

I will check parameter. M100 is a macro. I use it for subprogram.
M100 call subprogram. I write a program when use M100 follow:
O7000 (MAIN PROGRAM);
M100;
IF [#1102 EQ 1] GOTO1000;
M98 Pxxxx (PROGRAM FOR Y TABLE);
M99;
N1000;
M98 Pxxxx (PROGRAM FOR V TABLE);
M99;
that is M100 in my program, i dont know to repair this problem. Sometime i use this code on top program when i do on a table to wait ready button. M100 is a macro line. If i use it, i can do auto. We work on 2 table and program run if one of 2 tables ready.
I will check parameter 6050-6089 and tell you later
Thanks alot

Do you have pallet changer on that machine?, that #1102 must be for checking pallet or table number. Can you post last few lines of sub Pxxxx.

This is the only possibility.

If he is not sure what the macro/subprogram called by M100 is supposed to do, he possibly does not need to use M100.

i just check parameter, do you know to modify the PLC? What can i do now?

M100 is calling program O9001 - is this program stored in memory? If not, M100 will cause alarm 078.
M101 is calling program O9002 - is this program stored in memory? If not, M101 will cause alarm 078.

[dung_ninhbinh]

Hi Dcoupar,
Can you show me about that program? 9001 and 9002. My memory is empty.
Thanks

[dcoupar]

Your 9000 programs may be hidden? Check parameter 3202 bit 4. If it's 1, then the 9000 programs are locked. Change it to 0 and see if programs O9001 and O9002 are in the memory.

What should M100 and M101 do on your machine?

[dung_ninhbinh]

Dear Dcoupar,
M100 and M101 use to call subprogram. That code on the top of program. When use it, it wait we push OK button on the table then machine will run. Repeat program until finish item i want to do. (999999999 times ok)
