2.2 Drive Unit Connection and Rotary Switch/ DIP Switch Setting
2.2.1 Connecting the Drive Unit
Connect the optical communication cables from the CNC to the each drive unit so that they run in a straight
line from the CNC to the drive unit that is a final axis. Up to 16 axes can be connected per system. Note that
the number of connected axes is limited by the CNC.
CAUTION Pay attention to the bending radius of each cable when connecting.
Axis Nos. are determined by the rotary switch for setting the axis No. (Refer to the later descriptions.)
POINT The axis No. has no relation to the order for connecting to the CNC. Always connect the final axis of
the optical communication cables to the power supply unit.
Connect the largest-capacity spindle drive unit to the final axis of the CNC communication bus in
order to control the power supply unit. The spindle drive unit must be installed adjacent to the
power supply unit. In the system with servo only, a servo drive unit for controlling unbalance axis
must be installed in the same manner in the same way.

8 Setting the Position Detection System
8.1 Outline of the Position Detection System

There are two kinds of position detection system: one is "relative position detection", which establishes the
reference position (zero point) at every CNC power-ON; the other is "absolute position detection", which
allows to start the operation without establishing the reference position (zero point) again after the CNC
power-ON.
There are two types of the absolute position zero point initialization set, "dogless-type" and "dog-type".
"Doglesstype" has three methods: "machine end stopper method", "marked point alignment method", which
aligns to the marked point (matchmark or marking line) on the machine, and "marked point alignment
method II".
Set the parameter "#2049 type (Absolute position detection method)" for the type and method of absolute
position zero point initialization set.
Parameter "#2049 type"
Dog-less type Machine end stopper method Automatic initialization 1
Manual initialization 1
Marked point alignment method 2
Marked point alignment method II 4
Dog type 3
"Marked Point Alignment Method" is a method that the grid return (the axis movement to the grid) is
performed after the marked point alignment. If the nearest grid point is set as the reference position (zero
point), set the parameter "#2059 zerbas (Select zero point parameter and basic point)" to "1".
"Marked Point Alignment Method II" is a method that the basic point is set as the reference position without
performing the grid return.
The movement with setting of "#2049 type" and "#2059 zerbas" are shown below.

8.2 Marked Point Alignment Method II

This is a method to align to the marked point (matchmark or marking line) on the machine.
(1) Select [TOOL PARAM]-{MENU (MENU 5)]-{SETUP (MENU 4)]-"Y"-"Input"-Axes specification". Scroll to
the [ABS. POSI PARAM].
(2) Set "4" to "#2049 type".
(3) Turn the CNC power OFF and ON.
(4) Select the handle mode or the JOG mode.
(5) Select [ALARM/DIAGN] ---> [MENU (MENU 5)] ---> [ABS SERVO MONITOR] in the CNC monitor on
GOT. Scroll the page to display the [ABS. POSITION SET] screen.
Check that the NO-STOPPER is applied for the axis for which the absolute position zero point is to be
initialized.
(Note) The type of absolute position zero point initialization set is decided by the machine and axes
specifications, although "marked alignment method I" can be selected by setting "2" for "#2049
type Absolute position detection method". Confirm whether the machine specifications allow
the "marked alignment method" before changing the type.
(6) Set "1" to "#0 INIT. SET" of the axis for which the zero point is to be initialized.

(9) Turn the power ON again.
(Supplement) To move the reference position from the marked point

Input the value to "#2 Zero point" after completing the zero point initialization, and turn the power
OFF and ON again.
(Note) Set the offset value of marked point seen from the reference position (zero point) to "#2
Zero point". Note that the sign of the input value is contrary to the amount to be moved.
Example: Input "-100" to "#2 Zero point" to move the axis +100 mm.

8.3 Setting the Tool Entry Prohibited Range

Following functions are available for setting a tool entry prohibited range to detect over travels (OT).
(1) Stroke end (H/W OT)
The limit switch signal will detect the stroke end and limit the movement of the axis.
(2) Stored stroke limit (S/W OT)
Prohibited ranges are set with parameters.
(1) (2) (2) (1)
When stroke end (H/W OT) is set, the axis will move the distance required to decelerate and stop after H/W
OT is activated.
When stored stroke limit (S/W OT) is set, the axis will stop before the prohibited range of S/W OT including
the deceleration distance.
For safety, set the stroke end (H/W OT) and also, the stored stroke limit (S/W OT).
Always set the stroke end and the stored stroke limit. Failure to set this could result in collision with
WARNING the machine end.
8.3.1 Stroke End

The axis movement is controlled by the limit switch which detects the stroke end.
Signal device No. is allocated by the following parameters.
Parameter "#2074" and "#2075" will be valid only when "#1226 aux10/bit" is set to "1".
#1226 aux10/bit5: Set to "1" (assigning the signal is valid).

#2074 H/W OT+: Set the input device for assigning the OT (+) signal. (Setting range 0000 to 02FF
(Hexadecimal))
#2075 H/W OT-: Set the input device for assigning the OT (-) signal. (Setting range 0000 to 02FF
(Hexadecimal))
(Note 1) When "OT IGNORED" (R2420) signal is set to ON, the stroke end signal associated with a specific
control axis can be ignored.
(Note 2) When parameter "#1226 aux10/bit5" is set to "1", do not set the same device No. to #2073 to
#2075.
Setting the same device No. may cause the emergency stop. However, the device number will not
be checked for the axis which is set the signal to ignore (R2420, R2421).
118
8.3 Setting the Tool Entry Prohibited Range
8.3.2 Stored Stroke Limit

The stored stroke limit sets a prohibited range with the parameters or program command. The minimum and
maximum values of the prohibited range are set as the coordinate value (radius value) on the machine
coordinate system for each axis.
- The stroke check is not executed when both maximum and minimum value are set to the same value.
- This function is valid after the reference position return if the system does not apply the absolute
position detection system.
- Before the machine enters the prohibited range, an error "M01 Operation error 0007" (S/W stroke end)
will occur, and the machine movement will stop. The alarm can be reset by moving the erroneous axis in
the opposite direction.
- During automatic operation, if an alarm occurs with even one axis, all axes will decelerate to a stop.
- During manual operation, only the axis that caused the alarm will decelerate to a stop.
- The axis will always stop at a position before the prohibited range including the deceleration distance.
Stored Stroke Limit l is a stroke limit function used by the machine tool builder. The boundary is set with the
parameters ("#2013 OT - (Soft limit I -)" and "#2014 OT + (Soft limit I +)"). The outside of the set boundary is
the prohibited range. The outside of the set boundary is the prohibited range.
(A) (B)
: Moveable range
: Prohibited range
(A): Set value for (-) side
(B): Set value for (+) side
Point 1: "#2014 OT+ (OT + Soft limit I +)" and Point 2: "#2013 OT - (Soft limit I -)" are
set with the coordinate values in the basic machine coordinate system.
(Note1) This function will be invalid if the same value excluding "0" is set for both "#2013 OT-" and "#2014
OT+".
(Note2) When using the peripheral axis, inside of the specified range will be prohibited if the "#2013 OT-"
value is larger than that of "#2014 OT+".
For Stored stroke limit ll, ll B and l B, refer to "C70 Setup Manual" (IB-1500265).

Deceleration Check
147
MITSUBISHI CNC
With the deceleration check function, a deceleration stop is executed at the block seam before the next block
is executed, preventing corner roundness by reducing the machine shock that occurs when the control axis
feedrate is suddenly changed.
Appendix 2.1 Conditions for Executing the Deceleration Check

(1) Deceleration check during rapid traverse
During the rapid traverse mode, deceleration check is carried out at the block seam before executing
the next block.
(2) Deceleration check during cutting feed
The deceleration check is carried out at the block joints (before executing the next block) during cutting
feed when any one of the following conditions is valid.
(a) When the error detect switch (external signal) is ON.
(b) When G09 (exact stop check) is commanded in the same block.
(Note) The G09 command is issued in the same block as the cutting command. It is an unmodal
command.
(c) When G61 (exact stop check mode) has been selected.
(Note) The G61 command is a modal command. The modal is canceled by the following
commands.
G61.1: High accuracy control
G62: Automatic corner override
G63: Tapping mode
G64: Cutting mode

Appendix 2.3 Deceleration Check Method

(1) Command deceleration check
After interpolation for one block has been completed, the completion of the command system
deceleration is confirmed before execution of the next block. The time required for the deceleration
check is determined according to the acceleration/deceleration mode and acceleration/deceleration
time constant.
(a) For linear acceleration/deceleration

The deceleration check time required during rapid traverse is the longest rapid traverse deceleration
check time of all axes. This check time is determined by the rapid traverse acceleration/deceleration
mode and rapid traverse acceleration/deceleration time constant of simultaneously commanded axes.
The deceleration check time required during cutting feed is determined in the same manner. It is the
longest cutting feed deceleration check time of all axes. This check time is determined by the cutting
feed acceleration/deceleration mode and cutting feed acceleration/deceleration time constant of
simultaneously commanded axes.
149
MITSUBISHI CNC
(2) In-position check

With the in-position check, after the commanded deceleration check is carried out it is confirmed that the
servo system's position error amount is less than the value set in the parameters before executing the
next block.

(Similarly, transfer "device in PLC CPU" to "G device".)
(When writing/reading is executed directly into "G device", correct operation might not be executed according to timing
with CNC.)
(Note2) A word-data can be written/read directly into "G device". However, we will recommend using the device after a

For a word-data not so used, directly access "G device".
For a word-data often used, use the device after a word-data is transferred into "device in PLC CPU".
However, do not use BMOV command to copy between "G device" and PLC device.

Inputs to CNC (Y***), outputs from CNC (X***), and registers for data register (R***) are described as
device addresses in the CNC. Thus, use the PLC internal device later than X300 for transferring from
the G device to the PLC internal device and use the PLC internal device later than Y300 for output in
order to have better correspondences with this manual.
It is necessary to avoid using the same names of the devices of I/O units mounted to the PLC. Same
conditions apply when transferring R*** to the PLC internal device and use it.

form of CNC internal device address.
Precautions
(1) Do not build the process to multi-CPU synchronous interrupt program other than bit data transfer
program.
The execution time exceeds the interrupt cycle as it is executed in about 1ms cycle, so it may not
operate normally.
(2) The word data can read and write to the shared device at the arbitrary position of the PLC program,
however do not transfer the data by BMOV (block transfer) command.
To transfer to the internal device, use MOV (16 bit) or DMOV (32 bit) command.
(3) Although the shared device is the word device, a bit expression that designated the bit position is
enabled.
(The example indicates bit 7 of U3E0\G10321.7 No.1 CPU shared device G10321.)
Note that if the multi-CPU synchronous interrupt occurs during the two or more bit process, it may not
operate normally as it might be transferred to the CNC CPU in the middle of process. Do not use the bit
expression to write to the shared device.
(4) The processing time to read and write in the shared device takes longer compared with the internal
device.
Thus, when reading and writing to the same address of the shared device a number of times, process it
in the internal device. So that the number of read or write times to the shared device will be reduced and
the scanning time can be shorten.
(5) For the process of the device that turns ON only one scan at the completion, program it to the position
where the scan takes place each time ("processes not related to the data transfer timing with the CNC"
of the data communication program).
(6) When the timer is not executed for each scan
Do not jump OUT T1 command with CJ command while the coil of the timer (e.g. T1) has been turning
ON.
When OUT T □command is jumped, the current value for the timer will not be updated.

Appendix 6.3 Back Contact (B-Contact)

There are some signals with B-contact mark (*) in PLC Interface Manual.
B-contact signal is a signal which is valid at OFF. It is used for the contact such as being required to
stop the machine at the time of disconnection for safety.
Signals (B-contact) which needs to be initialized to "1" by sequence program are given below.
(Following signals used to be set to "1" by CNC at power ON for M6 Series, C64 and M7 Series but not
for C70, thus, processing PLC is required.)

Appendix 6.4 Handling of M, S, T, B Functions

Some important signals for handling of M, S, T, B functions are shown below.
In this section, the minimum required process to implement M, S, T, B functions will be described.
For details of each signal, refer to PLC Interface Manual.
(1) M, S, T, B functions strobe signal (MFmn, SFmn ,TFmn ,BFmn)

These are important signals that ensure the use of M, S, T, B functions by handshaking with the M
function finish signal.
This signal turns ON when:
- The 1st set of M function (M code) is specified in automatic operation (memory or MDI mode).
- M function (M code) is specified by manual numerical command input.
The signal turns OFF when:
- "M function finish 1" (FIN1n) signal or "M function finish 2" (FIN2n) signal turns ON.
- Reset condition occurs.
Example) The timing chart for the "M function strobe" signal 1 (MF1n)
Command program M3； M10;
M code data 3 10
M function strobe
M function ﬁnish
(2) M function finish signal (FIN1,FIN2)

M function finish signal includes M function finish signal 1 (FIN1) and M function finish signal 2 (FIN2).
Finish signal do not necessarily exist for each of M, S, T, B functions. There are two types of finish
signals, FIN1 and FIN2, in the entire M, S, T, B functions.
For example, FIN1 and FIN2 can be used separately in the same M function.
The figure below shows how to coordinate the M function finish signal.
FIN1... CNC proceeds to next block at falling edge of finish (FIN1n) signal.
FIN2... CNC proceeds to next block at rising edge of finish (FIN2n) signal.

(3) Handling of M00 and M01

M00 and M01 command are processed in much the same way of other M commands within the CNC
and will not stop a program for CNC itself. Thus, the process such as stopping the block with sequence
processing is required to be operated as an optional block skip function or program stop function.
*Operation on user PLC

- For M00
When M00 is input, single block (SBKn) signal is turned ON and M function finish signal (FIN1n or
FIN2n) is sent back.
- For M01
When M01 is input, optional stop switch setting (ON or OFF) is checked. If the setting is "ON",
single block signal is turned ON and M function finish signal is sent back, like the case with M00. If
the setting is "OFF", M function finish signal is sent back immediately.

(4) Handling of M02 and M30

Do not send M function finish signal (FIN1n, Fin2n) to CNC in the sequence process when commanding
M02 and M30. If finish signal (FIN1n, FIN2n) is sent back, "Program end error" may occur. After carrying
out the specified operation, send back Reset & rewind (RRWN) signal instead of M function finish
signal.

(5) Overwriting program of S function

The program transferring Spindle rotation speed input to Spindle rotation speed output with PLC
program is required when S function data is input in automatic operation or manual numerical
commands.
Flow of spindle data is shown below.
Also, set the intended value to Spindle rotation speed output to change the value of Spindle rotation
speed.
* Sequence example
If the spindle speed does not need to change from the (S) command value
Copy the spindle rotation input value (SRPMINNU3E1\G11160) to the spindle rotation output
(SRPMOTN:U3E0\G11160)
Spindle command Spindle command

Always ON rotation speed input rotation speed output
*This is a sequence example for the 1st axis. When using 2nd axis or following axis, another sequence circuit is required.
(6) Motion command completion signal (DEN)

This signal notifies that the commanded motion has been completed by the controller. In the machining
program when the motion command and M, S, T, B function command are programed in the same
block, the motion command completion signal (DEN) can be used to determine whether M, S, T, B
functions are executed simultaneously with or after the motion command.
(7) Recalculation request (CRQn)

Several blocks of the operation program are pre-read by CNC.
When the mirror image or optional block skip is turned ON/OFF by M command, even if only these
signals are turned ON/OFF with a sequence, the operation may not be carried out as intended.
The operation can be carried out as intended by using the recalculation request signal.
(Example) To operate mirror image with the miscellaneous (M) command in the program
In the above program example, the "Recalculate request" (CRQn) will turn ON before or simultaneously with
M45 finish (FIN1,FIN2) is output. This will validate the mirror image from the N2 block.
The "Recalculation request" signal (CRQn) latches the rising edge in the controller. Thus, even if the
"Recalculation request" signal (CRQn) is ON, the "recalculation" will not take place unless at the rising edge.

Appendix 6.5 Safety Observation Function

C70 provides the safety observation function, however, the safety PLC program needs to be installed on
PLC side (PLC CPU side) to use this function.
Fixed part of a safety ladder is transferred by CNC. In the safety ladder, following devices are used and
cannot be used to control a machine sequence. Thus, when safety observation function is to be used,
program the machine sequence without using the following signals.

Appendix 6.5.1 GOT Window

(1) GOT window interface is for displaying various NC data on GOT1000 that is connected to CNC CPU.
By commanding device read instruction, GOT can read each information in CNC.
Set a command to NC using GOT or the ladder. Also create data that corresponds to the command on
CNC side.
As the area of up to ten commands is available, up to ten commands can be designated at a same time.
64 words are used for one command in the command area, and 128 words are used for one response in
the response area.
Command area is assigned to the devices shared between multi-CPU (G device). Writing command to
the command area is done by PLC program. The response area is assigned to the D device in the CNC
CPU. The response area (CNC CPU device) is monitored by GOT.

(2) How to Obtain GOT Window Data

In order for GOT to obtain CNC data, firstly set necessary command in command area. And then, turn
Data changeover request signal ON.
When NC has received Data changeover request signal and finished the data changeover, Data
changeover completion signal will be turned ON.
Once Data changeover request signal is turned ON, NC will continuously create data until Data
changeover request signal is turned ON next time. There are ten Data changeover request signals,
which correspond to Window 1 through 10.
*GOT window data changeover request (G+290, G+291 R2390, R2391)

These signals notify CNC that the required command has been set to the command area. CNC
updates the response area by checking this signal.
Window 1 data changeover request

Window valid
*GOT window data changeover completion (G10290, G10291 R90, R91)

These signals notify that CNC has completed the data changeover. When this signal turns ON,
GOT starts to read the device in the response area.
