Patch AMP
Chapter 41
41-4
The control displays a message on its operator panel indicating AMP HAS
BEEN MODIFIED BY PATCH AMP. This message will appear at every
power up. Clear the message using the [CAN] key on the operator panel.
After you have completed all of your AMP changes and your machine is
running properly we recommend you back AMP up to ODS. Once you
have backed AMP up to ODS re-download that AMP file to permanently
remove the AMP HAS BEEN MODIFIED BY PATCH AMP message.
Refer to your 9/Series AMP reference manual for details on backing up
AMP to ODS.
Patch AMP Values
AMP values are configured using their QuickEdit numbers in patch AMP.
The patch AMP values are always numeric values.
Important: All patch AMP values are in millimeters. Units of time can be
milliseconds, seconds, or minutes (as shown in the following table).
Use the Patch AMP Value in the table below to make the correlation
between the numeric value and the AMP description. Shaded parameters
are used for most applications. An L next to the parameter number
indicates lathe only.
Four--digit AMP parameter numbers are per axis. The first digit being the
axis number.
