I am trying to learn this Okuma control on a new machine I bought without paying the breath-taking high prices the dealer wants to come out and train me. This is on a Hardinge GX1000 OSP. All Okuma drives, servos, control etc. I bought this machine from a guy who used it for one job. He had the dealer set up the machine and programs for him and after about 500 hours the job job went sour and a year later he sold me the machine. He knew vary little about the control and I don't know anyone with an Okuma so I am hoping to get some help here. The manuals that come with the machine offer little help. They tell you things like go "here" and do this, but don't tell you where "here" is. Or they say Alam such and such means exactly what it says on the screen but no instruction on how to clear the alarm or what is causing it. I have made my way through a lot of those kinds of things, loaded a few tools, and put a vise on the table but now I am stuck on something I'm sure is simple.
How do I transfer a Program to the control via USB?
Here is where I am at.
#1....Press PARAMETER button.
#2....After a lot of button pressing I get to the COMMON VARIABLES Screen (this is what it shows in the book)
#3....From there I choose F7 DATA IN/OUT
#4....Then I press F1 INPUT
#5....In the pop up window in the middle of the screen I choose US0 (UPPER)
#6....Then I type in the file name mill.min
#7....Press the WRITE key
#8....Press F7 OK
Then I get the error code "85002 File Function: Fopen"
I am lost here. Any suggestions?
