Description
The group number where the tool exchange signal has been generated is acquired in ascending order.
When the function for optional group number of tool life management B option is used, the optional group number set in each group is also acquired.
Universal Fanuc Driver
Fanuc Focas Library CD
Declaration
Arguments
Specify the library handle. See "Library handle" for details.
Specify the pointer to the variable where the number which wants to be acquired is stored. When the value of 0 or less was specified, EW_LENGTH error occurs. This function returns the number of data which was acquired actually. When there is not any exchange necessary tool group, 0 is set.
Specify the pointer to the ODBEXGP structure which stores the tool group number for which the acquired exchange is necessary. When the array of the number specified by num_grp is not prepared, the operation of this function is not guaranteed. The ODBEXGP structure is as follows.
typedef struct odbexgp {
long grp_no; // Tool group number
long opt_grpno; // Optional group number
} ODBEXGP;
- grp_no
- Tool group number
- opt_grpno
- Optional group number
-
The tool group number from which the tool exchange signal is derived is set.
-
The optional group number set in the tool group where the tool exchange signal has been generated is set.
When the optional group number setting function is not used and the optional group number is not set, 0 is set.
Return
EW_OK is returned on successful completion, otherwise any value except EW_OK is returned.
The major error codes are as follows.
| Return code | Meaning/Error handling |
|---|---|
(1) |
This function is not supported by CNC. |
(2) |
The value of 0 or less was specified for acquisition number(*num_grp). |
(6) |
The tool life management function and the extended driver/library function are necessary. |
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.
And this function is related to the following CNC option.
- Series 16i/18i/21i
This function is influenced by 512(M Series)/128(T Series) pairs of the tool life management.
- Series 0i-F, 30i
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, both of M and T Series additional pairs number of the tool life management : 1024 pairs of the tool life management on whole system, both of M and T 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.
