Description
Writes the tool life counter within the specified tool group range.
The unit of the tool life counter is either [minute] or [count]. The parameter LTM(Series 15/15i:7400#3, Series 16/18/21, 16i/18i/21i, 0i, 30i:6800#2) determines which unit is used.
The maximum number of the tool life counter is the following.
- Series 15, 16/18/21, 16i/18i/21i, 0i-A/B/C/D
- Series 15i
- Series 0i-F, 30i
At the count specification | : | 9999 counts |
: | 999999 counts(in case of the tool life management B) | |
At the minute specification | : | 4300 minutes |
: | 100000 minutes(in case of the tool life management B) |
At the count specification | : | 99999999 counts |
At the minute specification | : | 59940 minutes |
At the count specification | : | 65535 counts |
: | 99999999 counts(in case of the tool life management B) | |
At the minute specification | : | 4300 minutes |
: | 100000 minutes(in case of the tool life management B) | |
(When life count interval is 0.1 seconds, the max. value is 60,000 minutes.) |

Declaration
Arguments
Specify the library handle. See "Library handle" for details.
Specify the length of the data block(size of IDBWRC structure)
IDBWRC
N is number of the tool group to be written.
Pointer to the IDBWRC structure to set the tool life counter. The IDBWRC structure is as follows.
typedef struct idbwrc {
short datano_s ; /* Start tool group number. */
short dummy ; /* Not used. */
short datano_e ; /* End tool group number. */
struct {
long dummy[2] ; /* Not used. */
long count ; /* Tool life counter. */
} data[N] ;
} IDBWRC ; /* N is the number of tool groups to be written. */
Store the start tool group number in "wrcount.datano_s" with binary format.Store the end tool group number in "wrcount.datano_e" with binary format.
Store the tool life counter in "wrcount.data[i].count" with binary format.
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 |
---|---|
(2) |
Size of IDBWRC structure(length) is wrong. |
(3) |
The specification of tool group number (datano_s,datano_e) is wrong. |
(5) |
Tool life counter(count) is out of range. |
(6) |
The tool life management function is 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.
- Series 15/15i, 16/18/21/21i, 0i, 30i 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)/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.
