YASNAC PCNC Operating Manual

Chapter 3: HMI Process Operation

Both the commanded cutting speed (F) and the commanded feed
rate multiplied by the override are displayed. The commanded rate
is the machine’s real cutting rate.

Both the commanded spindle speed (S) and the actual spindle speed
are shown. The actual speed is the machine’s real spindle speed.
Spindle speed units are rpm.

The Spindle Load bar indicates the current load as a percentage of
the maximum allowed value. If the load meets or exceeds 100, then
the bar changes from blue to yellow. If the load exceeds 140 then the
color changes to red. Spindle load can vary from 0 to 200%.

A toggle button is provided to turn high-speed mode on. High-speed mode selection may

only occur when the machine is not running and it is in MEM

mode. High-speed

mode may be exited any time the machine is not running. High speed mode is indicated by

a change in the rocket icon:

Production data includes the current run time, the last run time, the percentage of the last run time
as given by the current run time and the number of parts done.

Current Run Time is the time taken by the CNC from start of first
block in the part program until the completion of the last block in
the part program. The run time information is intended to indicate
to the operator how much time is left before manual intervention is
required. After a program has been modified, Last Run Time is
reset. It is also reset when the current program changes. If the
reset button is pressed while the program is running, the Current
Run Time
is set to zero, but the Last Run Time will not be

affected.

%Done is disabled for the first run of a part. It is also disabled if the
program has been edited since the last run, since the cycle time will
no longer be valid.

Part count is stored in keep memory. The indicates how many times the cur-
rent part program has been successfully completed.

The Reset Count button is used to set the part counter back to zero.
