Software Installation
First, the Paradym-31 must be installed on the PC to be used.
Refer to the Paradym-31 Users Guide/Reference Book for Paradym-31 installation
methods.
Hardware Setup
(1) RS-232C Cable Connection
The RS-232C cable must be connected to the connector CN13 (1st port) of the CNC side
and a usable port (port1 or port2) of the PC side.
(2) Paradym-31 Debug Mode Set-up
Perform the following settings to set the Paradym-31 debug mode on the NC side.
• Match the system number switch to “4”.
• Set NC parameter pm5014 d5 as “1” (Paradym-31 communication effectiveness).
When pm5014 d5=1 is set, an NC alarm “ALM0050: PARAM REQUIRING POWER
OFF” is displayed. Therefore, after the power is turned off, turn on the NC power again.
(3) RS-232C Communication Set-up
In the RS-232C communication set-up, if the port number used to connect the RS-232C
is selected as a communication port number, communication speed will be automatically
set-up. The CNC side will be automatically set-up by the above Paradym-31 debug mode
set-up.
