POWER D OWN P ROCEDURE
1. Assuming the machine has been zeroed since it was powered up, press the Power Up / Restart
button and wait for the machine to perform a Zero Return.
Setting 81 TOOL AT POWERDOWN will cause one of the following actions to occur during power down:
A. If Setting 81 TOOL AT POWERDOWN contains zero the carousel will remain at the same
pocket. No tool change will be performed.
B. If Setting 81 contains a number greater than zero, the tool is listed in the pocket and tool
table, and the tool is already in the spindle. Then the carousel will remain at the same
pocket and no tool change will be performed.
C. If Setting 81 contains a number greater than zero, the tool is listed in the pocket and tool
table, and the tool is not already in the spindle. Then the carousel will be rotated to pocket
#1, then to the pocket containing the tool specified by Setting 81 and a tool change will be
performed that results in that tool in the spindle.
D. If Setting 81 contains a number greater than zero, but that tool is not listed in the pocket
and tool table. Then the carousel will be rotated to pocket #1, and no tool change will be
performed.
2. Press the red Power Off button.
TOOL C HANGE R ECOVERY
If a problem occured during a tool change, a tool change recovery needs to be performed. Enter tool change
recovery mode by pressing 'TOOL CHANGER RESTORE'. Once in tool change recovery mode, the operator is
given instructions and questions for a proper tool change recovery. The entire tool change recovery process
must be completed before exiting. If an exit was done prematurely the tool change recovery must be started
from the beginning.
The logic tree (flow chart) for the tool change restore function is at the end of this section. This logic tree
shows the questions, that will be asked of the operator, and the result of the answers.
