It is up to the machine manufacturer to make sure that the safety of the machine

is enabled in order to prevent personal injury and damage to the CNC or to the

products connected to it. On start-up and while validating CNC parameters, it

checks the status of the following safety elements. If any of them is disabled, the

CNC shows the following warning message.

• Feedback alarm for analog axes.

• Software limits for analog and sercos linear axes.

• Following error monitoring for analog and sercos axes (except the spindle)

both at the CNC and at the drives.

• Tendency test on analog axes.

SOFTWARE OPTIONS.

Some of the features described in this manual are dependent on the acquired software options. The active

software options for the CNC can be consulted in the diagnostics mode (accessible from the task window

by pressing [CTRL] [A]), under software options. Consult Fagor Automation regarding the software options

available for your model.

Software option Description.

SOFT 8060 ADDIT AXES Option to add axes to the default configuration.

SOFT 8060 ADDIT SPINDLES Option to add spindles to the default configuration.

SOFT 8060 ADDIT TOOL MAGAZ Option to add magazines to the default configuration.

SOFT 8060 ADDIT CHANNELS Option to add channels to the default configuration.

SOFT DIGITAL SERCOS Option for a Sercos digital bus.

SOFT THIRD PARTY I/Os Option to enable the CANopen bus for non-Fagor

modules.

SOFT OPEN SYSTEM Option for open systems. The CNC is a closed system that

offers all the features needed to machine parts.

Nevertheless, at times there are some customers who use

third-party applications to take measurements, perform

statistics or other tasks apart from machining a part.

This feature must be active when installing this type of

application, even if they are Office files. Once the

application has been installed, it is recommended to close

the CNC in order to prevent the operators from installing

other kinds of applications that could slow the system

down and affect the machining operations.

SOFT i4.0 CONNECTIVITY PACK Options for Industry 4.0 connectivity. This option provides

various data exchange standards (for example, OPC UA),

which allows the CNC (and therefore the machine tool) to

be integrated into a data acquisition network or into a MES

or SCADA system.

SOFT EDIT/SIMUL Option to enable edisimu mode (edition and simulation)

on the CNC, which can edit, modify and simulate part

programs.

SOFT TOOL RADIUS COMP Option to enable radius compensation. This

compensation programs the contour to be machined

based on part dimensions without taking into account the

dimensions of the tool that will be used later on. This

avoids having to calculate and define the tool paths based

on the tool radius.

SOFT PROFILE EDITOR Option to enable the profile editor in edisimu mode and in

the cycle editor. This editor can graphically, and in a

guided way, define rectangular, circular profiles or any

profile made up of straight and circular sections an it can

also import dxf files. After defining the profile, the CNC

generates the required blocks and add them to the

program.

SOFT 60 HD GRAPHICS High definition solid 3D graphics for the execution and

simulation of part-programs and canned cycles of the

editor. During machining, the HD graphics display, in real

time, the tool removing the material from the part, allowing

the condition of the part to be seen at all times. These

graphics are required for the collision control (FCAS).

SOFT 60 IIP CONVERSATIONAL The IIP (Interactive Icon-based Pages) mode, or

conversational mode, works with the CNC in a graphical

and guided way based on predefined cycles.

There is no

need to work with part programs, have any previous

programming knowledge or be familiar with Fagor CNCs.

Working in conversational mode is easier than in ISO

mode, as it ensures proper data entry and minimizes the

number of operations to be defined.

SOFT 60 RTCP Option to enable dynamic RTCP (Rotating Tool Center

Point) required to machine with 4, 5 and 6 axis kinematics;

for example, angular and orthogonal spindles, tilting

tables, etc. The RTCP orientation of the tool may be

changed without modifying the position occupied by the

tool tip on the part.

SOFT 60 C AXIS Option to enable C-axis kinematics and associated

canned cycles. The machine parameters of each axis or

spindle indicate whether it can operate as a C axis or not.

For this reason, it is not necessary to add specific axes to

the configuration.

SOFT 60 TANDEM AXES Option to enable tandem axle control. A tandem axis

consists of two motors mechanically coupled to each

other forming a single transmission system (axis or

spindle). A tandem axis helps provide the necessary

torque to move an axis when a single motor is not capable

of supplying enough torque to do it.

When activating this feature, it should be kept in mind that

for each tandem axis of the machine, another axis must

be added to the entire configuration. For example, on a

large 3-axis lathe (X Z and tailstock), if the tailstock is a

tandem axis, the final purchase order for the machine

must indicate 4 axes.

SOFT 60 SYNCHRONISM Option to enable the synchronization of paired axes and

spindles, in speed or position, and through a given ratio.

SOFT 60 HSSA I MACHINING SYSTEM Option to enable the HSSA-I (High Speed Surface

Accuracy) algorithm for high speed machining (HSC).

This new HSSA algorithm allows for high speed

machining optimization, where higher cutting speeds,

smoother contours, a better surface finishing and greater

precision are achieved.

SOFT 60 HSSA II MACHINING SYSTEM Option to enable the HSSA-II (High Speed Surface

Accuracy) algorithm for high-speed machining (HSC),

which has the following advantages compared to the

HSSA-I algorithm.

• Advanced algorithm for point preprocessing in real

time.

• Extended curvature algorithm with dynamic

limitations. Improved acceleration and jerk control.

• Greater number of pre-processed points.

• Filters to smooth out the dynamic machine behavior.

SOFT 60 PROBE Option to enable functions G100, G103 and G104 (for

probe movements) and probe canned cycles (which help

to measure part surfaces and to calibrate tools). For the

laser model, it only activates the non-cycle function G100.

The CNC may have two probes; usually a tabletop probe

to calibrate tools and a measuring probe to measure the

part.

SOFT 60 CONV USER CYCLES Option to enable user conversational cycles. The user and

the OEM can add their own canned cycles (user cycles)

using the FGUIM application that comes installed on the

CNC. The application offers a guided way to define a new

component and its softkey menu without having to be

familiar with script languages. User cycles work in a

similar way as Fagor canned cycles.

SOFT 60 PROGTL3 Option to enable the ProGTL3 programming language

(ISO language extension), allowing profiles to be

programmed using a geometric language and without the

need to use an external CAD system. This language can

program lines and circles where the end point is defined

as the intersection of 2 other sections, pockets, ruled

surfaces, etc.

SOFT 60 PPTRANS Option to enable the program translator, which can

convert programs written in other languages to Fagor ISO

code.

SOFT PWM CONTROL Option to enable PWM (Pulse - Width Modulation) control

on laser machines. This feature is essential for cutting

very thick sheets, where the CNC must create a series of

PWM pulses to control laser power when drilling the initial

point.

This function is only available for Sercos bus control

systems and must also use one of the two fast digital

outputs available from the central unit.

SOFT GENERATE ISO CODE ISO generation converts canned cycles, calls to

subroutines, loops, etc. into their equivalent ISO code (G,

F, S, etc functions), so the user can modify it and adapt it

to his needs (eliminate unwanted movements, etc.). The

CNC generates the new ISO code while simulating the

program, either from the DISIMU mode or from the

conversational mode.
