I think everybody came across a problem one time where they needed a variable, then they found it and posted it
As far as the list
1) I dont think is a good idea to write a list (hundreds) because of copyright issues
2) Even if you write one, we wouldnt be able to keep track. There are thousands and thousand of variables
I would like to see a list of variables that are not in the current documentation, with a blurb of the theorized or observed affect of the variable is. How could Fanuc claim copyright when the variable in question is not in their documentation?
I agree with Nation. Knowing some of these variables can make our life so much easier.
For instance, on a thread I found: $MCR_GRP[1].$servo_disbl[9]. This one saved me already a lot of hours troubleshooting.
I think everybody should post usefull variables so we can list them.
Reading a couple of parameter-related topics, among this one, I notice a lot of the answers can be found in the manuals or documentation supplied by Fanuc.
I had about the same questions, sent an e-mail to our Fanuc representative and got all the information I needed.
FANUC Robot controllers have a very large list of system variables, many of which are dangerous to change, and may not be documented. Many are for internal use and are read only, but some dramatically affect performance and are writable, at the least during a Controlled Start, if not normal Start. Some may require a Cold Start to take affect.
This stands for Cartesian Filter Enable. Documented nowhere, not listed on FANUC Variables menu (WHY?!) no mention of it on the net and 90% of Fanuc tech gurus are unaware of its existence. Can only be used as a program statement for enable/disable and it was suggested to be disabled by FANUC Japan after countless studies of one of my projects to solve a problem with Jerky movement on linear movement types when using continued turn. This didnt solve the problem though, merely offered a way around.
If your machine parameters are not listed here, check if it is possible with the builder or post in a forum to get some help. If you get answers please Email me so I may include them on this page.
(Fanuc 16,18,21 and 16i/18i/21i)- enables an inhibited area or work envelope for fixture. G-codes to turn on or off controlled area G22(on),G23 (off). Turn on parameter 1310.0 for X,Y,Z axes Set the machine coordinates in Parameters 1322 and 1323 to enclose a box around the area to inhibit or only allow machining inside All other related parameters are 1300-1327. G22 is active on power up. This function also inhibits handwheel. If in envelope must turn off first before handwheel. out.
Mitsubishi controls- Press system hard key then press parameters, press setup softkey, answer yes to question then select the soft keys such as base (1000's par.) or PLC (6400's par) or whatever to get to desired set of parameter numbers
Check with the builder to find the parameters for this. The parameters are usually keep relays (Fanuc), or 6400 parameters (Mitsubishi). It can be sometimes set to run constant, only while cutting, or only while spindle is turning.

Hi Running a series 180i-M , the machine halts with no error or alarm. ctrl+F2 or any other function key is impossible. The softkeys in fanuc software work with mouse. The problem resolve after some time but randomly. The rest of the computer functions work fine ( alt+tab, alt+F4, using other applications..)
any idea
I have a Miyano mill with an O-M fanuc controller. I get an overtravel in the +Z error. It appears that the error is when the tool change carousel does not stop in the correct position. There are 2 magnetic limit switches that both have to be illuminated to show the controller that the tool change carousel is in the correct place. Sometimes only one switch is illuminated due to the cam rotating past one of the switches. Why would the tool changer sometimes overtravel in its revolution? The machine will run fine for an hour or so and then the error happens. We put a metal object in front the sensor that is not turned on and then step rotate the tool change carousel. This brings it back into proper alignment and the machine will run.
Any ideas what I need to do?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
I have a fanuc control SERIES O-TC TYP AO2B -OO98-B501
machine, Lathe and the machine belongs to the Jolly company
I have a problem that the batteries have expired, and when I opened the machine, it was found that the parameter was not present
When trying to download the parameter, the control panel to run the motors does not activate
I want a way to solve this problem
Reads the parameter specified by "number","axis"(only for the parameter with axis). The data format depends on each parameter. The format of Byte/Word/2-Word parameter is generally signed binary format. Reads the parameter for all axes once by specifying 'ALL_AXES' in 'axis'. The parameter for each axis is stored in each array of "IODBPSD".
In IPL mode, key in 99, then press input. Clear file press [y]. Key in the number of axes. Key in the three passwords. (Example: 23678625, 37264699, 19261161) Push the input key after each password. The [?] will show up for each password. Input option list in hexadecimal code. Input through the unused option locations. To end IPL, press [6], and then press the input key.
The screen may then give a RAM parity error if using the FAPT. Turn off the control. Turn on the control while holding down the [BS] key. Type in [CFINT] then [1]. The screen should say sub initialized. Hit the CNC/PMC button. The screen should have digital parameter alarms.
Access to the I/O CHANNEL parameter is in the SETTINGS window, exactly where we enable the option of parameter editing. To go there, press OFS/SET. Below are the most common used data carrier.
