CNC Setups: FANUC 10TF
Fanuc 10TF does not have the tape reader wired internally because it only has one RS232C interface (unlike the 11T which has two). You will find a plug plugged into the RS232C socket that goes to the machine’s tape reader. So, to punch tapes, this plug needs to be disconnected in order to use the RS232C interface. The RS232C interface number is ONE.
G-ZERO needs to be set for even parity, 7 data bits, and 1 stop bit with a recommended baud rate of 1200.
Note: If signals from pins #6, #8, and #20 at Fanuc
10TF are not in use, they need to be jumped together. In the same way, if signals from
pins #4 and #5 are not in use, they need to be jumped together.
