0.006” which in most sawing applications is still very
high accuracy. A value of 2 would have an accuracy of
+/- 0.001” but may take slightly longer to position than
a higher value. In most cases the shuttle has more than
enough time to move to position because the saw is
making a cut.
• POSITION: Barfeed’s actual position in thousandths
of an inch. If the saw was programmed to cut a 1.000”
part, the position at the time the barfeed clamps would
be approx. 1.055” with a 055 kerf. (On a single shuttle
part, the barfeed always feeds the desired length plus
the kerf.)
• PULSE DIF: Pulse difference is the actual barfeed stop
error. It will always be within the ACCURACY window.
Optimum is “0”. This is for reference only and can be
used to watch each part position. All CNC machines
have an error window, most do not display this, they
only indicate the position will hold within the ACCU-
RACY window.
• MECH OFFSET: Mechanical offset is a single value
that can be changed to compensate for a machine that
is not perfectly level or aligned. The unit is 1= 0.0001”
or one ten thousandth of an inch per inch of programed
part length. The position sensor on the bafeed has a
guaranteed accuracy which should keep this value zero
for most applications, although if there was any error it
could be compensated for with this value. An example
would be if the length was programmed to 60.000” and
the actual measured length was 59.994” or six thou-
sandths short, a value of “1” could be entered. Since
the value of “1” in this parameter is adding 0.0001”
per inch (or one ten thousandths of an inch per inch of
part length) the amount extra the barfeed would feed is
60.000” x 0.0001” = 0.006”. This is the amount needed
to get the exact 60.000” measured part. A 30.000” part
would add 0.003” per the offset. If the original meas-
ured part was long this mechanical offset would be a
negative value.
• PLC DATE: Software revision date. 11233 is 11(No-
vember) 23 (23 rd) of 3 (2003).
• SAW VISE OPEN TIME: The unit is in tenths of sec-
onds. (7 = .7 seconds) The larger the number, the more
time the saw vise has to open. This is primarily used
when a saw has hold down options and more time is
needed to make the hold down raise higher to clear the
material.
• BARFEED VISE OPEN TIME: The same as Saw Vise
Open Time.
• DISPLAY DATE: The date of the display software revi-
sion MM-DD-YY.
QUICK JOB PAGE
The purpose of the quick job page is to “easily” program
multiple lengths. Up to six lengths can be programmed. The
operator must be on this page when starting the machine in
automatic mode for the multiple lengths to run. After start-
ing, the operator may go to any other page desired. The
fi rst quantity of zero in a length will cause a cycle stop and
a message displaying “QUICK JOB COMPLETE”.
The machine can be stopped at any time in the middle
of the process and then will continue where it left off after
startup. To reset the program back to the fi rst part at any
time, simply change the value of “RESET” TO “1”. RESET
will automatically change back to “0” after reset. The “CUR-
RENT LENGTH” will now show the fi rst length and quantity
programmed.
EXAMPLE: If 2 different lengths were desired to be cut “on
the fl y” the operator would enter a length value in LEN 1
and LEN2, and the corresponding quantity in QTY 1 and
QTY 2.
Make sure QTY 3 has a “0” in it so the machine cycle stops
after the 2 lengths programmed. LEN 1 = 26.098” QTY
1=4, LEN 2 = 3.078” QTY 2 = 16, QTY 3 = 0. This will cut
4 parts at 26.098 inches and then 16 parts at 3.078 inches
and then cycle stop.
• CURRENT LEN: This value shows the current length
the saw is cutting.
• CURRENT QTY: Current quantity or total number of
parts the operator wants for this length.
• CURRENT CUT: Number of cuts made for the current
length.
• RESET TO LEN 1: Changing this value to a “1” will
reset the program and start from the top or length 1
quantity 1. The value automatically changes back to
zero after reset.
• LEN 1 Through LEN 6: Program the lengths in order
starting from length one to as many different lengths as
desired. The value is in inches.
• QTY 1 Through QTY 6: Number of parts desired for
the matching length position. If a quantity of zero is
encountered, the saw will cycle stop at that position.
• LEN 1 Through LEN 6 mm: Metric length for each
programmed length. Each length can be programmed
in millimeters at these fi elds.
MULTIPLE JOB AUTO
The purpose of this page is to recall stored jobs and run
them individually or in a sequenced order. This page must
be showing on the operator display when the machine is
started in automatic mode for this multiple job to run. After
starting in automatic, the operator can go to any other page
if desired. To view and change these jobs or lengths the
operator must go to the next page which is “JOB SETUP”.
There are 99 different jobs to choose from and they can be
sequenced in any order as programmed in SEQ 1 through
