This is urgent.
I am a technician for HITech working on a micromill 2000 with Pneumatic vise and robot I/O. built in the U.S. in the late 90''s Customer using DOS software. We don't have that. I Want to convert customer to V 2.3 and want to make sure all is working. Installed new EPROM.
Need to get the I/O's to work to close the vise and start the robot.
Under machine parameters for micromill 2000 m62-m65 have been activated. Still no luck with vise openning and closing using M codes in program.
Will M62-M65 activate the I/O's on the card in a micromill 2000 DENSTEP card
Any suggestions?

Hi,
The mint file for these machines will allow control of these I/O:
#Mcode62 - Turn auxiliary output 12 on
X4.0=1 [TB2 Pin6]
#Mcode64 - Turn auxiliary output 12 off
X4.0=0 [TB2 Pin6]
#Mcode63 - Turn auxiliary output 13 on
X5.0=1 [TB2 Pin7]
#Mcode65 - Turn auxiliary output 13 on
X5.0=0 [TB2 Pin7]
#Mcode66 - Wait for input 10
REPEAT
GOSUB SafetyCheck
UNTIL X2.0 OR STOPSW [TB8 Pin5]
#Mcode76 - Wait for NOT input 10
REPEAT
GOSUB SafetyCheck
UNTIL !X2.0 OR STOPSW [TB8 Pin5]
#Mcode67 - Wait for input 11
REPEAT
GOSUB SafetyCheck
UNTIL X3.0 OR STOPSW [TB8 Pin6]
#Mcode77 - Wait for NOT input 11
REPEAT
GOSUB SafetyCheck
UNTIL !X3.0 OR STOPSW [TB8 Pin6]
I'm guessing that the I/Os would be different in DOS, so you may need to re-wire the Robot I/O
You may also have to go into paramters in VR Milling and under
"Input/Output Devices" tick:
Remote control cycle - this will stop the guard open message from interrupting Auto cycle
Remote control vice - this will allow the robot output, to control the vice.
However, having had a look at the old Denstep mint program, it appears that the above parameters will have no effect, so these systems must just use the M62 to M77 codes to control the 2 Inputs and 2 Outputs.
