Crown 1060 trouble

[machine_51]

I am new to Okuma's and CNC in general so please understand if I state anything incorrectly. I have a Crown 1060 with a OSP-U10L controller on it. Everything moves in manual mode on the machine. I created a simple program that cuts a taper using a trial version of HSMCam Works and posted it using their okuma "generic" post processor. Everything works in the simulator through their software. I then use the MS-DOS function to load the program to the machine. So far so good. I can see the program name in the top center and the lines of code in the edit mode. When I try to use the dry run and machine lock functions to see if everything works, nothing. So I turn off the machine lock, nothing. Then the dry run, nothing. I thought that maybe with the chuck empty the machine was in a safe mode. Nothing still. I made the program even simpler and it still does not work. Below is the generic program that I tried last and it still didn't work. Would someone tell me if I'm doing something incorrect software related or does it seem machine related? There are no alarms on the machine, everything moves in manual mode. Also, the zero point is set at values of 3974.4387. I know that Okuma's are different with the decimal placement, but does that zero point sound correct? Any help is appreciated.

I think you need to remove the "O132" line. Okuma will look at that like it is a sub program or at least a section of the main program that you have not called.

If you go to your PROGRAM display I'm guessing you have no code showing up except maybe the M02.

Best regards,

Thanks. I'll take it out and see what happens.

I can see the entire program on the program screen or atleast what is usually displayed. I can also edit the program that is stored in memory and every line of code is there.

I had to remove the O132 and the "%". I was using the single block with the dry run and machine lock on and I received an error on the first line with the "%". I though that was required or is it only for file transfer purposes?

[OkumaWiz]

Yes, the % is only used when transmitting over RS232. Kind of tuned that out since I see it all the time.

I should have caught that when you said you put it in using the floppy, but like you said, It tells you when it doesn't need it.

Best regards,

Thanks for the help. I'm now able to step through the program to see where else I've got errors.

With the OSP3000 I found I needed a blank line at the start of the program. Dumb idea, and took some finding. Needed % (I think).
Long time ago now. Weird controls. Good machine.

Thanks for the help. I'm now able to step through the program to see where else I've got errors.

Here is a little trick for OKUMA users, to very quickly check for syntax or end point errors, even some comp setting errors that may show up.

What you do is exucute a RE-START past the end of the program, the graphic page will display the tool centre-line path
- it WILL give an error saying it has gone past the program end
- it does NOT move the machine ( only after you push the Restart button ) ( whenever "playing" with a new program, always turn the rapid, feedrate & jog over-ride pots to zero. Just in case you do push a wrong button )

Command line is:-
RS 9999 <WRITE> ( it can be fully typed [ don't forget the space], or push the F-key & numbers )

RS = restart
9999 is a line or block counter
this number should be greater than the number of line of code in the program
N in front of the number ( ie RS N9999 ) means to restart on that particular line, if that line number does not exist, then the result is still restarting past the program end

Caution::::: this does NOT check S,T or M codes,,,only the calculated tool centreline paths ( tool comp is included on those paths )

program execution in machine lock state is designed especially for that on Okuma. Even oldest Okuma Howa's with some weird Okuma controls have the tumbler "machine lock"
