V0612-20i-T / 30i-T - Installation/Operation - DRO installation - (19/32)
The axis status will then switch to one of the following:
Ready Correct feedback setup
Repeat Wrong feedback setup, the process should be repeated.
Error Error in the feedback system.
Note: If the feedback device is a steel tape type linear encoder, press [F] before
pressing [ENTER] so it is properly detected.
3.5.3 Power and machine connection
Always mount it vertically so its keyboard is within operator's reach and its
digits are easily visible (at operator's eye level).
Do not connect or disconnect the DRO connectors while it is under power.
Connect all metallic parts to a common point on the machine tool and it to the
general ground point. Use cables of enough gage (no thinner than 8 mm
2
)
for this connection.
3.6 Installation parameters
These DROs have a number of installation parameters to configure it for a
particular application.
The way these parameters are displayed depends on whether they are
general or particular for each axis.
• If it affects the axes, the parameter number (PAR??) appears on each axis
display and the corresponding axis key must be pressed to modify it.
• If it is a general parameter, the X display will show the parameter number
and the Z its current value; if there is only one axis, its number will appear
on the X display and, after pressing , its value.
There are several kinds of parameters depending on how to set them:
• With binary values, it only takes values of 0 or 1 for each digit. The value is
changed by pressing the key with the relevant digit between [1] and [8].
Where [1] corresponds to the rightmost digit of the display and [8] to the
leftmost digit.
• Numeric values, usually with the corresponding axis resolution, they are
entered as regular coordinate preset.
• Options; the value is changed by pressing this key which will make the
various options appear in a cyclic way.
