1.1 Types of Operation Device
Ragarding the panel for the operators to proceed manipulation, it is divided into the MDI Data Input Panel and
the Operation Panel. MDI Data Input Panel’s major funtion is to let users edit or modify the program word by
word, and to set values. The Operation Panel is the control panel used to achieve kinds of manufacturing
needs, and it is composed of switches and buttons of many kinds of functions, and a Manual Pulse Generator
(handwheel, MPG), etc. The design of the Operation Panel may differ due to the differences between types of
machine tools, but this system provides a standard panel for machine tool manufacturers to utilize.

(4). Letter and symbol buttons:
These letters, symbols and number buttons are mainly used to edit program and input data. Some of the
symbols are shrinked to the right lower corner of the buttons, and if need to use these shrinked symbols,
just hold the SHIFT button and click the symbol buttons.
(5). Edit buttons:
Use these buttons along with the cursor on the monitor to modify programs, set data and switch pages.
<SHIFT> : Accompany symbol and number buttons to input special symbols.
<INPUT> : Input button, confirm the input data.
<INS> : Switch between Insert Character and Replace Characer modes
<DEL> : Character cancellation button.
<HOME> : When editing program, move the cursor to the beginning of a line
<END> : When editing program, move the cursor to the end of a line
<SPACE> : Input a blank character
<CAN> : Cancel previous character

1.3 Screen and Fnction Instruction
There are 7 function groups in this controller. They are Coordinate (POS), Program (PROG), Compensation
(OFFSET), Graph (GRAPH), Diagnosis (DGNOS), Soft Panel (SOFTPL), and Parameter (PARAM). In this
manual,【 】is used to indicate the function buttons below and on the right side of the monitor, and < >
for buttons on the MDI Data Input Panel.
1.3.1 Alposition of the Display Screen
When switching groups in dual systems, both systems’ groups will be switched. The figure below is a screen
displaying simultaneous data of both systems, and on the left side of the screen (X1, Y1, Z1, C1) is System 1,
on the right side of the screen (X2, Y2, Z2, C2) is System 2. The position dedicated to System 1 and System 2
can be changed by Pr.4989.
The buttons only work on the currently working system. To know which the currently working system is,
distinguish from whether the cursor stays on position 1 or 3 in the figure below. When cursor stays on position
1, the currently working system is System 1; and when on position 3, the currently working system is System
2.
The screen introduction below is for the system data screens appear in the screen.
