    10T-F READ READ READ READ READ READ

    Hi, all. Wondering if anyone's seen this.

    I'm hooking up a bunch of Fanuc's to a new PC. All is going fine (I'm 8 for 8!), until I run into a 10T-F that receives a file fine, but the READ lamp continues to blink. The DNC has finished the SEND, and if I hit "STOP" on the 10T-F, the entire program is there, but the READ lamp never quits blinking...

    I've got 2-3, 3-2, 4-5, 5-4, 7-7, and 6-8-20 on the Fanuc end.

    I'm ready for a drink.

    Thanks for any help.

    Dave

    My guess is that you do not have a % sign at the end of the NC file.

    You can avoid the need for this by looking for a parameter which sets whether or not M02, M30, M99 is considered to be program end during read-in.

    Chris,

    There is a % sign top and bottom, and I couldn't find any such parameter in the 10T-F manual. I'll look again this morning.

    Thanks

    It could also be a parameter issue. Check the parameter that is descrabing the device you are using. Example Fanuc PPR, Bubble, ans so on.
