I recently purchased a used turning center with Fanuc 18-T control. The problem is that the only the anolog parts counter is working (the one on the conrol panel). I run this machine in a bar feeder form and need to use the "parts required" field to stop the machine at specified qty. Also none of the "timers" (i.e. Power on time, cutting time, cycle time) are showing any progression while the machine is running. The date and time are current and working properly. I have checked parameters 6700 and 6710 to ensure that a specified m code is not needed, while looking at the above parameters I set them up to use either M02 or M30. Any thoughts as to how the entire timer system could be turned off on the conrol?
