Rads and Chamfers Fanuc Parameters 8134 3453

Messing With Parameters Can Be Fatal!!!!!

To change parameters you need to go to the setting screen in MDI. Now put a 1 in the parameter write box.

Bits n Bobs

When counting the bits in parameters you count from right to left so the first one on the right is bit 0 or sometimes known as #0

Rads and Chamfers Fanuc Parameters. Today we are going to change the parameters that make ,R and ,C work this means you can program point to point and just stuff in some rads and chamfers as an afterthought.

Here’s an article on it if you want to use it

Fanuc have two ways of putting on chamfers and rads and that’s where the confusion lies.

Just do as you’re told (oh and read this article)

So in Parameter 3453 you can set bit #0 (CRD) to a 1 this allows what Fanuc call “Direct Drawing Inputs” to work.

Also in Parameter 8134 set bit #2 (CCR) to a o

Now don’t let the description put you off this turns on the crappy one that uses R and R- and K and K-. This only works on 90 degree corners and unless you won Mastermind I wouldn’t even try to understand how it works.

Trust me it’s shit

Anyway Rads and Chamfers Fanuc Parameters 8134 3453 all sorted!

Isn’t it just great to sort out those annoying problems?

That’s it away you go.

Oh just one other thing before you go off and cripple your machine forever.

Do yourself a favour take a picture of the screen before you change a parameter.

If you aint got a camera then you must have a piece of paper.

Even better back everything up.

Display 9000 Programs Fanuc Parameter 3202

Messing With Parameters Can Be Fatal!!!!!

Not display 9000 Programs Fanuc Parameter, first of all you’ll need to go to the setting screen and change the parameter write box to a 1.

Programs 9000 to 9999 are used for things like probing, tool-change and all sorts of other important things.

You are allowed to use them but proceed with caution.

Beware and above all back em up ASAP.

These programs will not be displayed when this parameter PSR #6 is a 1

3202 if #6 PSR is 1 then programs 9000 to 9999 can’t be displayed.

As per Manual

Don’t forget to lock the 9000 programs back up and turn off parameter write switch.

You might want to use this yourself if you have a sub program in your machine that you use quite often and you don’t want anyone messing with it.
