Change parameter in a program

Eric U · Jan 27, 2020

Is there a way to change machine parameters from within a program? I need to change a bit in parameter 1008 depending on what program I’m running. It’s a pain changing it every program.

Doosan LYNX 220 LYA, Fanuc 0i-TD.

Thanks!

Doesn't that parameter give you a power off message when changed?

Sure does. I was hoping anyway...

What parameter bit are you trying to flip?

Nevermind. Anything in the 1008 string requires a power down according to the manual.

I am going to guess 1008.0 rotary roll over.

Correct.

What is another way to skin this cat? Program incremental C-axis moves instead of absolute? I hate to change over some of my well proven programs, but it might be the only way to “solve” this irritation.

I've never tried changing a parameter that requires power down by the G10 command. While it might change the parameter, I'd expect that you would still get the power down alarm. Even if it did not alarm, I doubt the change would actually take effect until the next time the power was cycled anyway.
