Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily recognize the meaning of a parameter, by storing the meaning of the parameter to be inputted at the time of generating a sequence program, and displaying the meaning of a stored parameter at a position corresponding to the position on a CRT display where the parameter should be displayed. CONSTITUTION:At the time of generating a prescribed sequence program, a CRT display 11 displays a picture to input the parameter required for the generation of the sequence program. At the time of inputting the parameter, and in case that the meaning of the parameter corresponding to a data number is indefinite, a display controller 12 displays the meaning of the parameter stored in a memory 14 by the depression of a prescribed key on the CRT display 11.

A display controller controls the display (11), and (13) is a memory for human output.

By the way, the conventional numerical control device with the above configuration creates a sequence program using a turnout processor (10), a CRT display (11), a display controller (12), and a memory (13). It looks like this. A sequence program is actually created by inputting parameters necessary for predetermined sequence control.

FIG. 4 shows a display screen for inputting parameters necessary for creating a certain sequence program. In the display screen of FIG. 4, 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9 is the data number, and 1000.2000.3000 is the input parameter. By operating the keys on the CRT display (11), input the data number and parameters to '#()J and "Data()" at the bottom of the display screen.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] By the way, in the conventional numerical control device having the above configuration, the meaning of the parameters to be input is not displayed on the display screen of the CRT display (11) shown in FIG. When a person who is not accustomed to creating a system inputs parameters, he or she must input the parameters while looking at an operation manual or the like, which is a time-consuming problem.

Furthermore, even if someone is accustomed to creating sequence programs, they may not be able to memorize all the parameters required to create each sequence program, and will need to refer to operation manuals, etc. The problem was that it took time and effort.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a numerical control device that allows the user to easily understand the meaning of input parameters when creating a sequence program.

[Means for Solving the Problems] Therefore, the present invention includes a numerical control means for driving and controlling a numerically controlled machine tool according to a machining program, and a numerically controlled machine tool that operates according to a sequence program according to the operation of the numerically controlled machine tool. A sequence control means for performing sequence control, an input display means for inputting parameters of a sequence program and displaying the input parameters at a predetermined position on a display screen, and storing the meanings of parameters to be input when creating a sequence program. A numerical control device is constituted by a storage means and a display means for displaying the meaning of the parameter stored in the storage means at a position corresponding to the display position of the display screen where the input parameter is displayed.

[Function] In the numerical control device having the above configuration, the numerical control means drives and controls the numerically controlled machine tool according to the machining program, and the sequence control means drives and controls the numerically controlled machine tool according to the sequence program according to the operation of the numerically controlled machine tool. control the sequence. Furthermore, when creating a sequence program, the input display means displays the input parameters, and the storage means stores the input parameters at a position corresponding to the display position of the display screen where the display means displays the input parameters. Display the meaning of the parameter.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a numerical control device according to the present invention. In Figure 1, (1) is the CPU, (2) is the CPU
(1) has a memory, (3) is a machine control processor that numerically controls the machine tool (9) connected to the numerical control device, and (4) stores the machining program etc. to be executed by the machine control processor (3). (5) is a drive means such as a servo motor that is controlled by the mechanical control processor (3); (6) is a memory that stores sequence programs, etc.; (7) and (8) are While inputting the signal from the machine tool (9), the machine tool (9)
A digital input/output circuit that outputs sequence l1lJ control signals, (10) is an input/output processor, (11) is a CR
T display, (12) is the display controller, (13) is the memory of the input/output processor, (14)
is a memory that stores the meanings of parameters.

Next, the operation of the numerical control device according to the present invention will be explained. When a predetermined sequence program is created, as described above, the CRT display (11) displays a screen for inputting parameters necessary for creating the sequence program, as shown in FIG. Parameter input 01 As described above. When inputting a parameter, if the meaning of the parameter corresponding to the data number is unknown, when a predetermined key on the CRT display (11) is pressed, the display controller (12) displays the information stored in the memory (14). Display the meaning of the parameters. The meaning of the parameter is displayed, as shown in FIG. 2, by displaying the meaning of the parameter at a position corresponding to the position of the display screen of the CRT display (11) where the parameter should be displayed. In other words, the meaning of the parameter corresponding to data number is "number of check cycles",
The meaning of the parameter corresponding to data number 2 is "repeat time", and the meaning of the parameter corresponding to data number 3 is "
"Orient Time". When a predetermined key is pressed, the display controller (12) that displays the meaning of the parameters displays a screen again for inputting parameters necessary for creating a sequence program.

Note that when display controller (12) displays the meaning of a parameter during parameter input,
The input parameters are stored in the memory (13).

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, the meanings of parameters are memorized without being inputted when creating a sequence program, and the meanings of the parameters are memorized at the position corresponding to the position where the parameters are to be displayed on the CRT display. Since the meanings of the parameters are displayed, it is possible to obtain a numerical control device that allows the meanings of the parameters to be easily known.
