Description

Declaration

Arguments

Specify the length of the data block(size of IODBTGI structure)

IODBTGI

N is number of the tool group to be written.

typedef struct iodbtgi {
    short      s_grp;       /* Start tool group number. */
    short      dummy;       /* Not used. */
    short      e_grp;       /* End tool group number. */
    struct {
        long   n_tool;      /* Not used. */
        long   count_value; /* Tool life value. */
        long   counter;     /* Tool life counter. */
        long   count_type;  /* Tool life counter type. */
    } data[N];
} IODBTGI ;         /* N is number of tool group to be written. */

Return

EW_OK is returned on successful completion, otherwise any value except EW_OK is returned.

The major error codes are as follows.

As for the other return codes or the details, see "Return status of Data window function"

CNC option

This function need the following CNC option.

• Series 15/15i, 16/18/21/21i, 0i, 30i/31i/32i
The tool life management function.

• Series 16i/18i
The tool life management function or the tool life management B function.

And this function is related to the following CNC option.

• Series 15/15i
  

  This function is influenced by 1024/512 pairs of the tool life management.

• Series 16/18/21, 16i/18i/21i
  

  This function is influenced by 512(M Series) pairs of the tool life management.

• Series 0i-F, 30i/31i/32i
  

  This function is influenced by additional pairs number of the tool life management.

  the tool life management	:	256 pairs of the tool life management on whole system with M Series
  additional pairs number of the tool life management	:	1024 pairs of the tool life management on whole system with M Series

For HSSB connection,

The extended driver/library function are necessary.

For Ethernet connection,

The Ethernet function and the extended driver/library function are necessary.

However, in case of Series 16i/18i/21i-B, 0i-B/C/D/F and 30i the required CNC option is as follows.

When Embedded Ethernet is used,

above two optional functions are not required.

When Ethernet board is used,

only Ethernet function is required.
