9000 macros problem

hey guys.

im having a problem unlocking the 9000 macro programs. so i can load a couple of new ones on a 99 mori. problem is the machine has a password that the guy that my company bought the machine from cant remember. so when you go into the parameters to enable editing it gives an alarm wanting a password.

is there a way around this?

hopes this makes sense

mike c.

That will actually depend on the exact context of the alarm. If it says "Write Protect" then parameter 3202#4 should take care of it. However, if it actually asks for a password there are a few other parameters to take a look at. Parameter 3210 is the parameter for password protect of O9000-O9999 programs. 3211 is the parameter for keyword protection of 9000-9999 programs. Paramter 3202#4 should override those two parameters. They can also set up a password using paramter 3220 and a keyword using 3221. 3222 and 3223 set the range for what programs to protect. If they have a value of 1 in 3222 and a value of 9999 in 3223, then programs 1-9999 will be password protected. I believe, you can go to 3220 and 3221 and press INPUT to clear them. If not, you can change the range of password protected programs in 3222 and 3223.

Make sure PWE is on. If it is on, try inputting new data into the parameters I listed above so you know the password. Make sure PWE is staying on when you turn it on. If it comes on and turns immediately back off, check parameter 3292#7. If it is set to a 1 it will not let you turn PWE on. If it is a 1, to change it to zero; in MDI input:
G10L50;
N3292R00000000;
G11;
CYCLE START

You could also try 3202#4 in MDI. Look at the string to find the exact values, and input:
G10L50;
N3202RXXX0XXXX;
G11;
Cycle Start(with the x's being the values you don't want to change)

Looking through my iDocs manuals, it looks like trying to change 3202 with G10 won't work either.

3210 Password[type] 2–word axis
This parameter sets a password for protecting program Nos. 9000 to 9999.
When a value other than zero is set in this parameter and this value differs
from the keyword set in parameter No.3211, bit 4 (NE9) of parameter
No.3202 for protecting program Nos. 9000 to 9999 is automatically set to
1. This disables the editing of program Nos. 9000 to 9999. Until the value
set as the password is set as a keyword, NE9 cannot be set to 0 and the
password cannot be modified.

NOTE
1 The state where password  0 and password  keyword is
referred to as the locked state. When an attempt is made to
modify the password by MDI input operation in this state, the
warning message “WRITE PROTECTED” is displayed to
indicate that the password cannot be modified. When an
attempt is made to modify the password with G10
(programmable parameter input), P/S alarm No.231 is issued.
2 When the value of the password is not 0, the parameter
screen does not display the password. Care must be taken
in setting a password.

3211 Keyword[Data type] 2–word axis
When the value set as the password (set in parameter No.3210) is set in
this parameter, the locked state is released and the user can now modify
the password and the value set in bit 4 (NE9) of parameter No.3202.

The only thing I can think of that might work, is punching out the parameters and modifying them offline, then trying to import them back in.
