Hello,
I'm rather new to machining in general and to EDM. So far I've written a few single axis machining programs. The machine is a 2002 sinker style Makino Edge2S with MGF control and I'm programming with the built in conversational Model Plan programming. I've achieved successful burns in a reasonable amount of machining time with a high quality finish. In other words, I'm satisfied with my results and progress thus far.
However, at the start of each machining process of all of my programs I get the following warning:
1402: Illegal Set Value In Jump Command
From the alarm code book it reads:
Cause: The set value that is not permitted is commanded in the G76 command block.
Remedy: Correct the program.
(Reference document: The jump G76 and G77 in the Chapter 3.10.2
programing in "Operation Manual")
After the warning appears, I have to press cycle start twice before the program starts to run again. Then at the next machining process change the same warning appears and I have to press cycle start two more times to keep the program running all the way through the last process. Obviously this keeps the operator at the machine unable to perform other duties because he has to keep starting the machine between each process change.
When Makino came first came out to perform training, the applications person who wrote our initial program for our training couldn't figure it out and even called other Makino Applications people to elicit information from them.
It would seem since I'm using the Modal Plan conversational programming that it would prevent me from inputting incompatible values...?
I can't figure this one out, has anyone solved this one before?... any ideas?
Thank you.
