Putting into operation

3.1

for all milling machines

Use a dry cloth to remove the corrosion protection that was applied to all exposed parts for
■
transport
In the event of marine impregnation of exposed parts, it is recommended you spray them with oil,
■
allow it to work, and then remove the impregnation with a dry cloth.
Once set up properly (see the section on delivery and set up) connect the grounded plug directly
■
to a safety socket and the 230 V 50/60 Hz (optional 110 V 60 Hz) mains power supply.
Provision of sufficient coolant for the operation of a coolant system
■
(optional)
Release the axis clamps and check the individual feed spindles for easy operation
■
Check all electronic operating elements, for example, ON/OFF switch, emergency off switch,
■
potentiometer etc. for functionality.
3.2

3.2.1 Setting up and connecting the control computer

When selecting a suitable control computer, pay attention to the system prerequisites of the
control software. These are listed on the rear of the CD case sent with the machine.
Follow the instructions in the start manual of the software to install the control software on the
computer. The start manual can be found in the CD case of the control software included with the
machine.
In the next step, the software must be adapted to your machine. To do this, follow the instructions sent
with the machine which detail the editing of the parameters.
When the software has been successfully installed on the control computer and all parameters have
been adapted successfully, the control computer must be connected with the machine controller.
The machine controller communicates with the computer via the serial interface (COM port). In order
to establish a connection between the machine controller and the computer, connect the end of the
interface cable that is on the machine console to the COM port of the computer.
CAUTION:
The axial cable of the step motors and the serial interface cable may only be plugged in or
removed when the controller is switched off. Otherwise this may lead to damage to the
controller, the machine or the control computer.
