We recently installed a used Cincinnati Millacron lancer 1200 with an fanuc 18i m control. I have been working out some bugs and have it running fine now but I can not seem to delete programs. I am in edit program can get the delete soft key and then the execute. when I press the exec softkey the control does nothing. Is there something I am missing? Could it be a parameter setting? Please help.
First, you can't be in the program your trying to delete. Select a different o number. Then go to Dir, type the O number you want to delete and press the delete hard key. O9xxxx and O8xxxx programs are macros, you would need to change parameters to edit or delete those, however you don't want to loose tool change programs etc.
