This is not fitted in the software. Ensure that the correct hardware has been supplied and is compatible with your requirements. It is assumed that the installation will be installed by a competent person who is familiar with both the machine tool and Renishaw equipment. 1.2.2 Wiring Connections Details provided in Chapter 3 – Fanuc Connection Diagrams show the necessary connections that are required. Useful information is also provided in Chapter 4 – Fanuc Diagnostic and Location Chart and High Speed Skip. The termination of all relevant connections must, however, be clearly established by liaison with the machine tool builder, and the wiring and connection diagrams supplied with the machine. Check with the machine tool builder whether the P.M.C. ladder work is complete for skip and I/O. The ladder can be displayed on some controls and the connections can be checked. Ensure that input addresses are not being used for other purposes. 1–4 Manual No. H-2000-6040 Installing Hardware and Software 1.2.3 Cable Routing Cable routing is important. Cables should be installed to avoid high current sources such as 3-phase transformers or axis drive motors. Signal interference can occur as a result of bad cable routing. 1.2.4 Hardware Installation The siting of equipment and all necessary installation adjustments to the hardware is to be found in the documentation supplied with the hardware. 1.2.5 Machine Parameters The parameters settings must be set as described in Chapter 5 – Fanuc Machine Parameters. 1.3 Installing the Tool Setting Software for Machining Centres This section describes how you load and customise the Tool Setting software. The software is supplied with standard settings, but these may be adjusted to suit specific machines during installation. The information in this section supplements the information contained in the manual Tool Setting for Machining Centres – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6082). Manual No. H-2000-6040 1–5 Installing Hardware and Software 1.3.1 Checks and Adjustments The checks and adjustments described below do not apply to machines that are fitted with Haas controllers. If your machine is fitted with a Haas controller, you should refer to the manual Tool Setting for Machining Centres – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6082) for information applicable to this type of controller. 1–6 • Check that the probe system is functional and that the stylus faces have been set parallel to the axes. You should find this described in the appropriate Probe Installation Manual. • Set the software variable base number in macro O9799. You will find a description of how to edit the base number setting in the manual Tool Setting for Machining Centres – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6082). • Set the macro variables to suit your machine. You will find a description of how to do this in in the manual Tool Setting for Machining Centres – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6082). • Check for an active tool offset. You will find a description of how to do this in section 1.3.2 – Active Offset Software Adjustments . • Configure the tool select macro if you intend using macro O9853. You will find a description of how to modify the tool select macro in the manual Tool Setting for Machining Centres – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6082). • Calibrate the probe fully using macros O9851 and O9852. You will find a description of how to calibrate your probe in the manual Tool Setting for Machining Centres – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6082). • Set a tool using the manual-jog macro cycles O9851 and O9852 to establish tool geometry values. You will find this described in the manual Tool Setting for Machining Centres – Programming Manual (Part No. H-2000-6082). Manual No. H-2000-6040 Installing Hardware and Software 1.3.2 • Adjust the back-off distance #506 using macro cycle O9851. You will find this described later in section 1.3.4 – Adjusting Back-Off Distance #506. • Finally test the Auto-Setting cycle O9853 using the same tool. Active Offset Software Adjustments Carry out the following test during installation of the software to check for safe probe cycle operations. Perform this test away from the probe and any other obstruction. 1. Enter value(s) into an active tool offset register, e.g. offset number 1. Example: 25mm (1.0in) in the geometry offset. 5mm (0.2in) in the wear offset (if applicable). 2. Run the safe operation test as shown below. % O0001(REN SAFE OPERATION TEST) G65P9851K1. (Any small value in K is suitable – the default value is 1mm [0.04in]) M30 % The Z or spindle axis should move down towards the stylus a total distance of 14mm (0.56in), i.e. by the software default amount. 3. Manual No. H-2000-6040 If the distance travelled includes the tool offset amount(s) corrective action is required (see section 1.3.3 – Software Adjustment later in this chapter). 1–7 Installing Hardware and Software Repeating the Test Repeat the test described in steps 1 to 3 above for all possible error causing conditions. Typical test conditions include: • Immediately after a power up situation. • Immediately after a previous program has finished. • Pressing the reset button before this test. • Trying a program G28G91Z0 return before the test. • Trying a manual return sequence before the test. • Trying any other typical preferred ways of working on your machine. The purpose is to give confidence that the software is safe to use for all normal operating conditions. Any error-causing conditions can either be corrected at this stage, or at least you will be aware of any sequence to avoid. 1–8 Manual No. H-2000-6040 Installing Hardware and Software 1.3.3 Software Adjustment Mazak/Meldas Controls The software is supplied as standard to read any active tool offset amount(s) by reading the last active H word (this assumes the last H offset is still active). This is done because there is no system variable to read directly the active tool offset amount. Fanuc/Yasnac/Haas Controls The software is supplied as standard to read the active tool offset amount using variable #5083. This method normally works on all Fanuc controls (not Mazak/Meldas). However, due to the machine builder parameter settings this may also give problems, particularly if the geometry or wear offset is not included in the active offset amount. In case of difficulty, this can be changed to the Mazak/Meldas method by deleting or commenting out the following line at the end of macro O9799. N110 #149=#5083 #31=#0 M30 Delete or comment out this line (#149=#5083) If this change does not resolve the problem(s), it may be necessary to be aware of the error causing condition(s), and work around them. Manual No. H-2000-6040 1–9 Installing Hardware and Software G91G28 Return Problems If the G28G91Z0 return causes a problem, this can usually be avoided by using a G53G90Z0 return (see the manual Tool Setting for Machining Centres – Programming Manual [Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6082]). 1.3.4 Adjusting Back-off Distance #506 The static or non-rotating length setting uses the standard Renishaw twotouch method of measurement. A back-off distance factor #506 is provided for adjusting the move distance off the surface prior to the final measuring move. The software loads a default value of 0.5 when first run. This stored value in #506 should be optimised for minimum cycle time. Adjust the back-off distance factor #506 as follows: Repeat the static length setting cycle O9851, reducing the #506 value each time until the tool just clears the stylus surface prior to the second touch. NOTE: When the value is too small, a ‘Probe Open’ alarm results. 1–10 Manual No. H-2000-6040 Installing Hardware and Software 1.4 Installing the Inspection Plus Software This section describes how you load and customise the Inspection Plus software. It supplements the information described in the manual Inspection Plus Software – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6031). 1.4.1 Installing the Software It is important that the software is installed to suit the type of controller and options available. Do this as described below: 1. First, refer to the manual Inspection Plus Software – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6031) to determine whether the Inspection Plus software is suitable for your needs. 2. Decide which cycles you require before proceeding. These are covered in the preliminary part of the manual Inspection Plus Software – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6031). 3. Load the basic cycles on file 40120519. (1) Delete any unwanted O98-- series cycles.

For small and medium size machines, i.e. machines having less than 1000mm (40in) of axis travel, the standard feedrates as supplied are normally acceptable. This macro may be deleted by the operator after optimisation is completed. 1.4.3 Settings Macro O9724 If the default values are not suitable, you will need to change the Settings macro O9724. Refer to the manual Inspection Plus Software – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6031) for a description of macro O9724. Set the following Settings macro options: • Work offset type • Tolerance alarms or flag only (FMS type application) • Tool offset type The examples in this section are for general guidance only. Please note that the exact programming format may not suit either your machine set or recommended method as specified by your machine builder. 1–12 Manual No. H-2000-6040 Installing Hardware and Software 1.5 Testing the Installation When the power is switched on, the interface should be operational and respond to the probe conditions. All signal conditions and status of the LEDs on the front panel are described in the Probe and Interface User’s Guide supplied with the equipment. At this stage, it is advisable to check the machine diagnostics to establish whether the signals are being received by the machine. When checking the machine diagnostics, take note of the following points: 1. Fanuc Logic 0 (0) is the low state (0V) 1 (1) is the high state (+24V or +5V) dependent on whether normal or high speed skip is used. 2. When the skip signal is already high, the machine does not move under the G31 skip command. This is not applicable to Yasnac controls and the Meldas M310 control. 3. The machine normally responds to a rising edge signal (0V to +V) under the G31 skip command. This can be modified on some controls – see section 5.9 titled Parameters Related to MultiChannel Skip 10-11-12-15 M/T in Chapter 5 – Fanuc Machine Parameters. 4. When the Renishaw interface is in an error state, e.g. due to transmission failure, the status relay output is forced high even if the probe stylus is not deflected. 5. The Renishaw skip relay (when used) is a pulsed output which responds to every probe change of state (seated/deflected). The Fanuc diagnostic changes 0-1-0, but when checking this on the diagnostic screen, the change of state may not be seen each time due to the response time of the screen. The final checks on the system are described in Chapter 6 – Fanuc Software Installation. Manual No. H-2000-6040 1–13 Installing Hardware and Software 1.6 Input Voltage and Supply It is important on all controls that the voltage used to drive the probing input is taken from the correct source. In most cases this is decided by the machine tool builder (for Fanuc High Speed Skip information, see the end of this section). Figures 1.1 and 1.2 show typical power supply connection arrangements. The machine tool builder’s wiring manuals should be used to check which power supply is used for the probe input. This power supply usually supplies all the other inputs and will be stabilised. On systems with I/O boxes, the inputs may be either 100 – 120Va.c. or 0V/24Vd.c. 1–14 Manual No. H-2000-6040 Installing Hardware and Software PCB RENISHAW SSR Input Plug N/O Probe Input Input +24V Machine Tool Builder +24V d.c.

It will provide you with a basic understanding of the importance of accurately calibrating the probe you intend to use for either tool setting or measuring. Only when the probe is accurately calibrated can you achieve total quality control over your manufacturing process. This chapter also provides you with some guidance regarding the most suitable operating conditions for your probe.

In the manual Tool Setting for Machining Centres – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6082) you will find details of how to calibrate your Renishaw tool setting probe. But why is it so important that your probe is calibrated? When your probe is assembled and mounted on the machine table, it is necessary to align the stylus faces with the machine axes to avoid probing errors when setting tools. It is worth taking care with this operation – you should try to get the faces aligned to within 0.010mm (0.0004in) for normal use. This is achieved by manually adjusting the stylus with the adjusting screws provided, and using a suitable instrument such as a DTI clock mounted in the machine spindle. When the probe has been correctly set up on the machine, it is time to calibrate the probe. Calibration cycles are provided for this task. The purpose is to establish the probe stylus measuring face trigger point values under normal measuring conditions. The calibration values are stored in macro variables for computation of the tool size during tool setting cycles. Values obtained are axis trigger positions (in machine co-ordinates). Any errors due to machine and probe triggering characteristics are automatically calibrated out in this way. These values are the electronic trigger positions under dynamic operating conditions, and not necessarily the true physical stylus face positions. Manual No. H-2000-6040 2–3 Calibrating the Probe NOTE: Poor repeatability of probe trigger point values indicates that either the probe/stylus assembly is loose or a machine/probe fault exists. Further investigation is required. As each Renishaw tool setting probe system is unique, it is imperative that you calibrate it in the following circumstances: 2.1.2 • If it is the first time your probe system is to be used. • If a new stylus is fitted to your probe. • If it is suspected that the stylus has become distorted or that the probe has crashed. Notes on Tool Speed and Feed Rates CAUTION: Setting tools by rotating against the stylus is suitable for most tools. However, this operation for some tools, such as carbide tipped and delicate cutting teeth, may suffer from cutting edge deterioration as a result of contact with the stylus under these conditions. The following parameters for operating conditions have been found by experience to suit Renishaw tool setting probes. Improvement and optimisation may be possible for specific applications. The table mounted probe is suitable for setting tool lengths non-rotating. Cycles are also provided with the capability to set rotating tools for length and radius. 2–4 Manual No. H-2000-6040 Calibrating the Probe First Touch Spindle RPM RPM for the first move onto the probe is calculated from a surface cutting speed of 60.0 metres/min (197.0 ft/min). This is maintained within the range 150 rpm to 800 rpm and relates to a range of 24.0mm to 127.0mm (0.95 to 5.0in) diameter cutters. The surface cutting speed is not maintained outside this range. First Touch Feed Rate The feed rate is calculated as follows: F= .16 x rpm F= .12 x rpm F units mm/min (diameter set). F units mm/min (length set). Second Touch Spindle RPM 800 rpm. Second Touch Feed Rate 4.0mm/min feed rate (0.12in/min) resolution 0.005mm/rev (0.00020in/rev). 2.1.3 Tool Offset Methods The Tool Setting software runs with the following tool offset methods: 1. Positive type tool offsets (gauge line to tool tip). 2. Master type tool offsets (master tool has 0 (zero) length offset, all other tools are referenced to it). NOTE: It is not possible to run this software with ‘air gap’ type tool offsets. Manual No. H-2000-6040 2–5 Calibrating the Probe ‘Air gap’ description: Negative tool lengths The spindle axis move distance necessary to reach the reference surface with the tool point. This method requires recalibration at each job set up. The master tool ‘air gap’ length also changes for each job set up. 2.2 Calibrating a Measuring Probe 2.2.1 Why Calibrate your Measuring Probe? In the manual Inspection Plus Software – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6031) you will find a description of how to calibrate your Renishaw measuring probe. But why is it so important that your probe is calibrated? When you assemble your Renishaw probe into its machine shank/holder, it is not necessary for the probe stylus to run true to the spindle centre line. A small amount of run-out can be tolerated, but it is good practice to get the stylus mechanically on-centre to reduce the effects of spindle and tool orientation errors. Without calibration of the probe the run-out will lead to inaccurate results. By calibrating your probe, the run-out is automatically accounted for. The ‘Calibration in a Bored Hole’ cycle (Macro O9802) provides the data to allow for this run-out. As each Renishaw probe system is unique, it is imperative that you calibrate it in the following circumstances: 2–6 • If it is the first time your probe system is to be used. • If a new stylus is fitted to your probe. • If it is suspected that the stylus has become distorted or that the probe has crashed. Manual No. H-2000-6040 Calibrating the Probe • At regular intervals to compensate for mechanical changes of your machine tool. • If repeatability of relocation of the probe shank is poor. In this case, the probe may need to be recalibrated each time it is selected. Three different operations are used to calibrate a probe. They are: 2.2.2 • Calibrating in a bored hole; • Calibrating in a ring gauge; and • Calibrating the probe length. Calibrating in a Bored Hole Calibrating your probe in a bored hole automatically stores values for the offset of the stylus ball to the spindle centre line. The stored values are then automatically used in the measuring cycles. They compensate the measured values so that they are relative to the true spindle centre line. 2.2.3 Calibrating in a Ring Gauge Calibrating your probe in a ring gauge of a known diameter automatically stores one or more values for the radius of the stylus ball. The stored values are then automatically used by the measuring cycles to give the true size of the feature. The values are also used to give true positions of single surface features. NOTE: The stored radii values are based on the true electronic trigger points. These values are different from the physical sizes. Manual No. H-2000-6040 2–7 Calibrating the Probe 2.2.4 Calibrating the Probe Length Probe length calibration on a known reference surface stores the length based on the electronic trigger point. This is different from the physical length of the probe assembly. Additionally, this operation can automatically compensate for machine and fixture height errors by adjusting the probe length value that is stored. 2.2.5 Calibration Cycles There are four calibration cycles provided with the Inspection Plus software. These may be used in conjunction with one another for complete calibration of the probe. The four macros are summarised below. For further details, you should refer to the manual Inspection Plus Software – Programming Manual (Renishaw Part No. H-2000-6031). Macro O9801 This is used to establish the probe length in its tool shank. Macro O9802 This is used to establish the stylus off-centre values. Macro O9803 This is used to establish the stylus ball radius values. It is suitable for all measuring cycles except O9821, O9822 and O9823. Macro O9804 This is used to establish the vector stylus ball radius values. It is suitable for all measuring cycles, including O9821, O9822 and O9823. For complete calibration of a probe system, you must use macros O9801, O9802, and either O9803 or O9804. The Renishaw calibration cycles are split into separate cycles for flexibility. If, however, the calibration feature is accurately known for both size and position, e.g. a ring gauge where the size is known, and the position is accurately found using a Dial Test Indicator, it is then possible for you to write a program which completes the full calibration procedure in one operation by calling all of the above macros. 2–8 Manual No. H-2000-6040 Fanuc Connection Diagrams Chapter 3 Fanuc Connection Diagrams This chapter contains the connection diagrams which show how to make the connections to a Fanuc controller.

Inspection Probe Effective isolation of signal can be achieved by using this option. It is recommended that the inspection probe be installed using G31 (G31.1) skip. Tool Setting Probe The tool setting probe should be installed using G31.2 skip. G31.3 or G31.4 This will require changes to the tool setting software. Edit all G31 command lines to G31. as required. See the diagnostic and location section for relevant information.

Manual Selection A similar arrangement as described above, but with a manually operated switch, can be used to select either probe prior to use. Manual No. H-2000-6040 3–37 Fanuc Connection Diagrams Appendix High Speed Skip It should be noted that all connection diagrams shown in this section refer to use of standard skip using 24V logic (0V common or 24V common). When using High Speed Skip the connection diagrams are still relevant, but reference to 0V N/C and 24V N/C supplying Fanuc skip should be ignored. The relevant supply will be provided on the High Speed Skip connector (see Chapter 4 – Fanuc Diagnostic and Location Chart and High Speed Skip). When multi channel skip is required to drive tool setting and inspection probing, the software programs can be edited to suit whichever channels are to be used. Both tool setting and inspection software programs use the G31 skip function code. Renishaw recommend that any necessary alteration should be made to the tool setting software. This will make editing easier. When G31 occurs in the toolsetting software, this may be edited in the normal way (make sure program protection is set to allow for editing) to any of the desired channels (G31.1 G31.2 G31.3 G31.4). Please make sure a test is carried out in a safe condition before running the software. This can be done by writing a small program or by M.D.I. mode, to establish the correct channel is operating successfully (see Chapter 6 – Fanuc Software Installation). 3–38 Manual No. H-2000-6040 Fanuc Connection Diagrams Appendix Printer Interface Notes The Renishaw Print Macro is formatted to output data to 80 characters per line (page width). Connection to the machine will make use of an RS232 serial port. Your printer must have this option installed. You will require a suitable communication cable with a 25 way D-type connector at the machine end. A typical configuration is shown below (refer to your printer documentation for cable configuration). The printer and machine parameters must be set so that the communication protocol is matched. Set the following characteristics: 1. Number of start bits – signals to mark the start of each character. 2. Number of stop bits – signals sent to mark the end of each character. 3. Number of data bits – character signals to be printed. 4. Speed of communication – Baud rate – approximately the same as the number of bits per second. 5. Reliability of communication – A parity bit can be sent.

Refer to your Fanuc operating manuals for procedures related to parameters (see Machine Parameter Section). Check the Fanuc control program directory to ensure all macro numbers on the tape are available for use (see the Macro Number lists in the Programming Manual). Where a conflict in numbers exists, then either the resident macro numbers can be changed, or deleted if not required, otherwise the Renishaw macro numbers can be modified. Top level macro numbers can be changed, but if they are moved outside the range of G and M code selectable numbers, then they must be called in part programs using the G65P - - - method. Renumbering user transparent macros will involve changing the nested macro call statements within the Renishaw macros. Refer to Renishaw if in doubt. Refer to Chapter 5 – Fanuc Machine Parameters and follow the instructions for setting parameters for safe software operation. Full descriptions and methods of changing parameters are to be found in the Fanuc Manuals.

The probe installation should be tested for safe operation prior to using the macros. 1. Testing Skip Function 2. Write a small program e.g. O0001 G91 G40 G31 Z-50. G90 M30 G80 F100 (Metric values shown) The probe should never be turned on and active. The spindle should be in safe position where the Z axis is free to travel 50mm (1.97in). When the machine is in cycle and the G31 command is read, the Z axis should move. Verify this on the position page of the screen. If the probe is triggered manually the slides should stop, and the program end. If this does not happen the installation should be checked. 6.4.1 Retrofit Packages using the Status Relay NOTE: This section is not applicable to Yasnac controllers. If the Z axis does not move when the above test program is run, then check the skip diagnostic. If the diagnostic signal is high, the machine is inhibited. Check, if the output relay is configured normally open or normally closed correctly (see Hardware Installation). 6–6 Manual No. H-2000-6040 Fanuc Software Installation Software packages fitted with user input/output signals. Test that these signals are being read by the control. Check relevant diagnostics for change of state (see Chapter 4 – Fanuc Diagnostic and Location Chart and High Speed Skip). Manual No. H-2000-6040 6–7 Fanuc Software Installation 6.5 Fanuc Diagnostics for Skip – (Retrofit Packages) NOTE: The following table covers MI 5, MI 8, MI 12, and MI 14 interfaces.

Power off. 6–8 Manual No. H-2000-6040 Fanuc Software Installation 6.6 Checking Fast Feed Rates Check that macro variables used do not coincide with the Renishaw list of common and retained variables. If software edits are required, consult Renishaw or your Renishaw Distributor. 6.6.1 Checking the Fast Feed Rate in the Z Direction A Z0 B Figure 6.1 Checking Fast Feed Rate in Z Direction Position the stylus a small distance (0.5mm [0.197in]) inside the surface (A) and approximately 10mm (0.4in) above. Write a small program using G31 skip to take the probe stylus through the surface. Being only a small distance inside the surface allows the stylus to deflect without breaking. When the machine slides have come to a halt, measure distance B. Distance B must not exceed the actual travel provided for the stylus in the Z axis. Manual No. H-2000-6040 6–9 Fanuc Software Installation Information regarding travel for the Z axis is to be found in the Renishaw Users Guide supplied with the system. Sample Program G91 G31 G80 G40 Z-10.0 F3000 (For retrofit installations make F1000, values shown in mm) G90 M30 Measure distance B and manually return the probe to a safe position. NOTE: Make sure the skip function (G31) is working correctly before executing the above example. As a rule of thumb, when distance B is within the Z axis travel of the probe, X and Y will be within their respective limits. Should it be necessary to make alterations to the fast feed rates consult Renishaw or your Renishaw Distributor for advice. The cycles should be tested at reduced feeds initially to establish that the machine slides stop within the overtravel of the probe. The probe overtravel in Z axis is usually the limiting condition. It is only large machines or special circumstances which will require adjustment to the feed rates in the macros. Consult Renishaw or your Renishaw Distributor for advice if this is necessary. A 6–10 Check that all machine parameters have been set (see Chapter 5 – Fanuc Machine Parameters), particularly the parameters related to retaining tool length offsets. Test if the tool offset Vector is lost after pressing 'Reset Button'. (see Chapter 5 – Fanuc Machine Parameters).

Intermediate Feed Move d = recovery from surface, in proportion to the factor #506. Figure 6.2 Basic Move Factor 1. Fast feed move to the surface, the skip position is captured (*) to gain an approximate surface position, then this is used with #506 in order to get a recovery position for move 2. 2. Intermediate position (d) to remove stylus from the surface. 3. Slow feed move to the surface, this is the final gauging move to capture the true surface position. 4. Rapid retract move off the surface back to the initial start position. By testing, the value of #506 should be adjusted so that the probe moves clear of the target surface by the smallest amount. Values will be in the range of 0.25mm to 0.5mm (0.010in to 0.0197in) typically. The higher the value the further away from the target surface the probe moves to. 6–12 Manual No. H-2000-6040 Fanuc Software Installation High inertia machines will have high values of #506 to compensate for longer accelerations and decelerations. A default value (0.5mm [0.0197in]) is automatically installed in some packages. NOTE: References to #506 are applicable to machining centre software. Before the probe is used for measurement and setting, it must be calibrated to the machine. This is achieved by running the calibration cycles. Machining Centres a. b. c. Calibrate in a bored hole. Calibrate in a ring gauge. Calibrate in Z axis. Lathes a. b. Calibrate on a known diameter. Calibrate in Z axis. The characteristics of both machine and probe will be established and stored as correction values. NOTE: Subsequent recalibration will be required periodically dependent on usage and application. Always calibrate after changing the stylus.
