Please see detailed information in the Chapter of Unload for reference. The system includes software and movement control card, therefore, the installation will have two stages: software installation and movement control card installation. In general, you should install the software firstly and then install the movement control card, so that users need not to install the drivers of movement control card separately. In short words, the installing procedure is as follows: (1) Install the software, and switch off your computer when you see the promote information of installation file. (2) After the computer has been switched off, install the movement control card. (3) Restart-up your computer, and then open the Windows operating system. After a while, when the Windows has finished its automatic configuration, the whole installation is completed. (4) Run the system. Followings are some detailed information for the installation. Install the Software Please install the software according to following instructions: (1) Switch on and start-up the computer, and then the system will enter the Windows operating system automatically. If you have not installed the Windows operating system in your computer yet, you should install the Windows operating system firstly. - 5 - GUANGDALY Software Manual (2) After the Windows operating system is start-up, please close all other running files. (3) Put the installation disk into the CD driver. (4) Double click the icon of “My Computer”, then double click the CD driver icon in the pop-up dialog. After the CD has been opened, find the SETUP.EXE file and double click it. Then, there will have the installing dialog on the computer screen (see following picture): (5) Click “Next”, then the system will promote you to choose destination location (see following picture): (6) Click “Next”, then the system will promote you to select program folder (see following picture): - 6 - GUANGDALY Software Manual (7) Click “Next”, then the system will start copying files (see following picture): (8) Click “Next”, then the system will finish copying files automatically and promote that you should shutdown your computer immediately. Please select the option of “Shutdown”, and install the movement control card after the computer is switched off. Install the Movement Control Card Switch off computer power, then open up the computer mainframe cover and insert the movement control card into an empty and matching expansion slot.

Before the connection of control card and motor driving system, you should install the machine tool and electric box firstly, connect the plugs of movement control card and electric box correspondingly with special cable, so then the connection is finished. 3. Basic Concepts of System 3.1 Operating Mode and State Operating Modes At any time, users’ operation on machine tool will be one of the following operating modes, so it is very necessary for users to execute exact operation by fully understanding every operating mode. Automatic Mode Under automatic mode, the machine tool movement is realized by pre-prepared machining file, so machining file must have been loaded into system in advance. Jog Mode - 9 - GUANGDALY Software Manual A manual operating mode. Under jog mode, users control the machine tool through manual operating equipment such as computer keyboard and hand pulse generator. Users use such equipment to send movement signals. For example, press down manual button, and the machine tool is under continuously movement until the signal is disappeared. Increment Mode A manual operating mode. Under increment mode, users also control the machine tool by manual operating equipment such as computer keyboard and hand pulse generator. The difference between jog mode and increment mode is that one time pressing button action, from starting press down until loosening, the machine tool only moves a certain distance. That is to say, users can control the displacement of the machine tool precisely by increment mode. MDI Mode A manual operating mode. Concerning the MDI mode, users can control machine tool by inputting G command directly. The system can also switch to MDI mode automatically while some inner operating file is executing such as move to workpiece origin, which will not influence users’ application. Operating States Under each operating mode, there are several different operating states as well. We should say that the machine tool state is decided on both operating mode and operating state. Idle State The most familiar operating state. At the moment, the machine tool has no output movement and is ready to receive a new task and then start a new movement. Locked State An inner operating state, generally, which show the state exchanging, so users will use it infrequently. Emergency Stop State This is an unusual operating state. When the machine tool has hardware failures or users press down the “Emergency Stop” button, the system will enter the emergency stop state and execute the pre-prepared protective movement. For example, switch off spindle motor, cooling pump and etc. At the moment, the machine tool is locked as well and cannot execute any new movement. After the hardware failures are - 10 - [...]...
