Using the measuring cycles SW 7.5 in HMI-Advanced from 7.5 and higher with SINUMERIK 840D sl from
SW 2.5
The configuration HMI-Adv SW 7.5 with NCU 7x0.x SW 2.5 contains two different cycle software releases:
• The total package NCU 7x0.x comprises: NCU2.5 (with HMIsl SW 2.5) with cycle packages SW 2.5
(technological cycles, measuring cycles) on a CF card, these match the cycle support in the editor of this
internal HMI;
• HMI-Adv 7.5 also brings the cycle archive SW 7.5 (technological cycles, measuring cycles) into the
archive path.
With this total configuration, then the following always applies: Cycles that are downloaded into the NCU
can only be operated with the cycle support that belongs to this SW release - but not mixed.
To use the cycle support of the HMI-Advanced from 7.5 onwards, the cycles should be loaded from its archives -
but not the cycles from the CF card of the NCU.
11. Notes on the cycles (ISO cycles) for the "Online ISO Dialect Interpreter":
CNC software 1.5 SP3 includes the ISO cycles 06.05.04 in an installable form.
Installing the ISO cycles:
Installation of the ISO cycles requires previous commissioning of the standard cycles. Before you begin the
startup process, you should ensure that the existing status is saved to an archive; read out a series startup
archive if necessary.
Documentation: ISO dialects for SINUMERIK 6FC5297-6AE10-0APx
Programming Manual ISO Milling 6FC5298-6AC20-0BPx
Programming Manual ISO Turning 6FC5298-6CA00-0BGx
Step 1 - Machine data settings:
You can activate the Online ISO Dialect Interpreter using the machine data 18800 $MN_EXTERN_LANGUAGE.
The language types ISO dialect M (Milling) or T (Turning) can be selected via machine data 10880
$MN_EXTERN_CNC_SYSTEM.
Step 2 - Reading in the archives
isomill.arc ;*Archive with all ISO cycles for milling
isoturn.arc ;*Archive with all ISO cycles for turning
defines.arc ;*Archive with definition file (GUD7_ISO.DEF)
For the procedure for reading in the archive files, please refer to: "Information about the technology cycles"
Step 3 - Activating the definition files
Activate the GUD7.DEF definition file. For the procedure for activating the definitions, please refer to:
