Help, drip feeding meldas 64

[Ferencic]

Hi, I have Mori seiki cv500 (99')vmc
Mitshubishi meldas 64 control(touch screen)
I connected dnc device and I figured how to send programs from dnc to mache by rs 232 cable, but I have trouble drip feeding programs,
When I switch to tape (direct) mode and press cycle start I get error: program is not exist.

Can someone help?

I suspect that in you I/O parameters your Tape Mode Port setting is not correct. Set the Port value so it is the same as that stored in Data In.

Additionally post the first few lines of the exact code you are sending and the exact keystrokes you are doing to start drip feeding.

I tried diferent port and baud rate but without success,

1) switched to tape mode
2) cycle start
3) send file(on dnc )

I tryed 1,3,2, also to input Program number,
but as soon as i push cycle start i got error like on pic 3.

The error in picture 3 is a macro error. I believe that you have a macro program being called by your program. Try with Single Block switch on to start the drip feed operation. Read each line as it executes and post here what you see and what line of your program is calling a macro.

Also, my Meldas 60 parameter manual says that Port 2 must be set for Remote Prog In. I would set the values to match your Tape Mode.

I tried Single block, but error appears before even first line is read,
port number it is 2, device number is 4 (i tried to change that but no luck)

I tried Single block, but error appears before even first line is read,
port number it is 2, device number is 4 (i tried to change that but no luck)

I have no idea about it being a macro error but if Vanc says it is i trust it.
So that leads me to believe that there is a digit or letter in your program that is incorrect. Like a O instead of a 0.
First thing I would try is omit the O0001 completely and try to send it from the G90 line.

Do you have a program O0002 in the machine? If so post it so I can see what it does.
