ACR-MOTIONMAX Installation Guide 22

Step 14. Edit the T Code Function

ACR-MOTIONMAX Handles Tool Codes by loading the AcroBasic Counter 7 (P6775) with the Requested Tool number. If The Requested Tool is different From the Current then ACR-MOTIONMAX will Set the ToolChangeRequest bit (159) to tell the ToolChange function to effect a Tool Change.

ACR-MOTIONMAX is designed to accommodate 3 types of tool Changers:

Type 1) Basic Knee Mill with no Tool Changer

Type 2) Standard Tool arm No Pre-Stage Arm

Type 3) Pre Staging with Virtual Tool Lookup

If using a Type 1 note: You must post a User Message to the system from inside the T Strobe Handler that prompts the Machine Operator to “Please Change to Tool Number ”. See Error Message System ACR-MOTIONMAX will see that a Tool change is in progress and will append the new Tool number to the end of your Message, with a “Press Ok to continue”. This allows you to Change tools even though you have no tool changer … except for the machine operator.

Type 2 & 3 are handled by ACR-MOTIONMAX, all the machine builder needs to do is write his M06 Code and T Code Handler.

T Strobe	Bit 152	Set by ACR-MOTIONMAX to trigger Tcode Handler
		function
T Done	Bit 149	Cleared by AcroBasic when ToolChange is Done
ToolChangeRequest	Bit 159	Set by ACR-MOTIONMAX to Indicate a Tool
		Change is Required
RequestedToolPositon	P6775	Loaded by ACR-MOTIONMAX with the Target in
		Pockets
CurrentToolPosition in Magazine	P6759	Holds the Current Magazine Position in Pockets
TooChangeDone	Bit 154	Set by AcroBasic to signal Tool Change Completion
ToolChangeActive	Bit 153	Set by AcroBasic to Signal Tool Change in progress

Note: M06 TXX Code ACR-MOTIONMAX will Set the M6 code first then the Tcode to allow the M6 to Be processed first. See M06 function for Details and logic.

The Main purpose of the Tcode is to Rotate the Magazine to the New Tool Pocket for Changing to the Spindle.
