1.2 GSK980TDi Installation

1.2.1 GSK980TDi External Dimensions
See Appendix Ⅰ, Ⅱ.

1.2.2 Preconditions of Cabinet Installation

z The dust, cooling liquid and organic resolution should be effectively prevented from entering the
cabinet;
z The designed distance between the CNC back cover and the cabinet should be not less than
20cm, the inside and outside temperature difference of the cabinet should be not more than 10℃
when the cabinet inside temperature rises;
z Fans can be fixed in the cabinet to ventilate it;
z The panel should be installed in a place where the cooling can’t splash;
z The external electrical interference should be taken into consideration in cabinet design to
prevent it from interfering the CNC system.

1.2.3 Measures Against Interference

In order to insure the CNC stable working, the anti-interference technology such as space
electromagnetic radiation shielding, impact current absorbing, power mixed wave filtering are
employed in CNC design. And the following measures are necessary during CNC connection:
1. Make CNC far from the interference devices (inverter, AC contactor, static generator,
high-voltage generator and powered sectional devices etc.);
2. To supply the CNC via an isolation transformer, the machine with the CNC system should be
grounded, the CNC and drive unit should be connected with independent grounding wires at
Ⅲ

the grounding point;

Connection

3. To inhibit interference: connect parallel RC circuit at both ends of AC winding (Fig. 1-2), RC
circuit should approach to inductive loading as close as possible; reversely connect parallel
freewheeling diode at both ends of DC winding (Fig. 1-3); connect parallel surge absorber at
the ends of AC motor winding (Fig. 1-4);

Fig.1-2 Fig. 1-3 Fig. 1-4

4. The CNC leadout cables use the twisted shield cable or shield cable, the cable shield tier is
grounded by an terminal at CNC side, signal cable should be as short as possible;
5. To reduce the mutual interference among the CNC signal cables, and among the strong
current, the wiring should follow the following:

Input signal means the signal from machine to CNC, when this signal is through on with +24V,
the input is active; when it is off with +24V, the input is inactive. The contact of input signal at machine
side should meet the following conditions:
Capacity of the contact: DC30V, 16mA above
Leakage current between contacts in open circuit: 1mA below
Voltage drop between contacts in closed circuit: 2V below (current 8.5mA, including cable
voltage drop)
There are two external input types for input signals: one type is input by contact switch whose
signals are from keys, stroke switch and contacts of relay at machine side, as shown in Fig. 2-21A:

The input interface signals defined by PLC of GSK980TDi／GSK980TDi-V system involve XDEC,
ZDEC, ESP, ST, SP/SAGT, PRES, DITW, DIQP, T01～T08, TCP and so on.

2.8.2 Output Signal

The output signal is used for the machine relay and indicator. When the output is enabled, the
output state of its corresponding Y address is 1, and its output signal potential is 0V. When the output
is disabled, the output state of its corresponding Y address is 0, this output signal represents as
high-impedance state. The digital value output of I/O interfaces are owned the same structure, refer
to the following figure:

Fig. 2-22 Circuit for digital volume output module

Connection
Its typical application is as follows:
z To drive LED
A serial resistance is needed to limit the current (usually 10mA) that goes through the LED by
using output to drive LED, which is shown in Fig. 2-23:

Fig. 2-23

z To drive filament indicator

An external preheat resistance is needed to decrease the current impact at power on by using
output to drive filament indicator, and this resistance value should be within a range that the indicator
cannot be lighted up as shown in Fig. 2-24:

z To drive inductive load (such as relay)
To use output to drive an inductive load, it requires connecting a freewheeling diode near the coil
to protect output circuit and reduce interference as shown in Fig. 2-25:
The significances of the output signal of I/O interface are defined by PLC program, these signals
include S1～S4 (M41～M44), M3, M4, M5, M8, M10, M11, M32, TL-, TL+, U00～U05, DOQPJ,
DOQPS, SPZD signals etc.. And their common terminal is +24V.

z Control logic
(1) Series connection between the emergency stop and travel switch
When the contact of the emergency stop switch is cut off, the ESP signal is off to +24V, and CNC
makes an emergency alarm. Meanwhile the CNC turns off the enable (EN) signal to stop the pulse
output. Except the functions processed by NC, other functions can also be defined by PLC program
when the emergency alarm is issued. The function defined by standard PLC program is: when
emergency alarm is issued, it turns off the signal output of M03, M04, M08, and outputs M05 signal at
the same time.
(2) Separate connection between the emergency stop and travel switch
1. Each axis has only one overtravel contact, and the system judges the overtravel alarm
based on the axis movement direction.
2. When the system alarms for the overtravel, the axis moves reversely, the reset key is
pressed to clear the alarm after the axis exceeds the limit position.
Note: Before the overtravel limit function is enabled, the slider must be between the positive and the negative
limit; otherwise, the prompted alarm will not be consistent with actual situation.

1.2 Tool-Change schedule

①During the tool change process, CNC outputs TL+ signal until the tool in-position signal is
detected, then CNC turns off TL+ signal output and outputs TL- signal after a delay time
specified by data parameter No.082. Then CNC detects TCP signal till it is detected, the CNC
turns off TL- signal after a delay time specified by the data parameter No.085. So the tool change
is over.
②When CHET(K0011.5) is set to 1(check tool signal after the tool change ends) and the tool
post (CCW) rotation time ends to confirm whether the current tool input signal is consistent with
the current tool No., if not, the system alarms.
③ The tool change process ends.
④ After the system outputs the tool post rotation (CCW) signal, if the CNC doesn’t receive the
TCP signal within the time set by DT08, an alarm will be issued and the TL- signal will be turned
off.
⑤ When the tool post has no tool post locking signal, CTCP(K0011.3) is set to 0, at the time,
the system does not check the tool post locking signal.

2.2 Tool-change schedule
① Cutter-head relases and waits for that the cutter-head releasing signal is low LEVEL.
② The system judges the shortest path based upon the destination tool number and current
tool number; select the output rotation direction in terms of the principle of the
approximated tool-selection regardless of the positive signal (TL+) or negative one (TL-),
the tool starts to rotate and perform the tool-selection.
③ In the rotation process, the system performs the coding based upon the cutter position
encoder signals T1~T4 to identify the current tool number. When rotating to the previous

 GSK980TDi Turning CNC System User Manual

station of the destination tool number, detect the skip of the cutter-head strobe signal.
System closes the cutter-head releasing signal and outputs the cutter-head clamping
signal at the falling-edge of the previous state strobe signal of the destination tool number.
④ When the cutter-head clamping input signal in detecting is low LEVEL, close the
cutter-head rotation output signal (TL+ or TL-), the motor is then stopped.
⑤ Confirm whether the current tool position code signal is consistent with the detstination tool
number, confirm whether the cutter-head clamping signal is Low LEVEL again.
⑥ The tool-change is absolutely performed if the above-mentioned steps are correct.

executes the falling edge, the system outputs pregraduation electromagnetic signal of the tool post,
and the electromagnet is turned on.
⑷.When the input signal of the pregraduation proximity input signal of the tool post is HIGH, the
system closes the tool post rotation output signal (TL+ or TL-), and the motor stops.
⑸.After the system delays 50ms, it outputs the signal(TL- or TL+) which is reverse to the
previous rotation direction and the tool post rotates reversely.
⑹.When the proximity input signal of the tool post locked is HIGH, the system closes the rotation
signal (TL-, TL+), and the motor stops. Then the system outputs the tool post brake signal TZD, and
the motor brake is turned on.
⑺.When the system delays 200ms，it closes the pregraduation electromagnetic output signal,
and then the electromagnet is turned off.
⑻.The system checks the current tool no. again and confirms whether the encoding signal of the
current tool is consistent with the target tool no..
⑼.The system confirms again whether the locked proximity switch signal is HIGH.
⑽.When the above steps are correct, the system closes the tool post brake signal TZD, and so
the tool change is completed.
⑾.In the course of the tool change, when the system has found the motor overheat signal, it

Return process of machine zero mode B

A: Select Machine zero mode, press the manual positive or negative feed key (machine
zero return direction set by bit parameter No.183), the corresponding axis moves to the
machine zero by a rapid traverse speed (No.113). As the axis press down the
deceleration switch to cut off deceleration signal, the feeding slows down immediately,
and it continues to run in a fixed low speed (No.33).
B: When the deceleration switch is released, the deceleration signal contact is closed again.
And CNC begins to detect the encoder one-turn signal (PC), if this signal level skips, the
motion will be halted. And the corresponding zero return indicator on the operator panel
lights up for machine zero return completion.
When the BIT0 (ZMX) of the bit parameter and No.006 are both set to 1, and the BIT5 (DECI) of
the bit parameter No.004 is set to 0, it chooses the machine zero return mode C, and the deceleration
signal low level is active. The Bit 1 of status parameter No.011 can be set the deceleration time.
So the sequence of machine zero return mode C is shown as follows:

Return process of machine zero mode C
A: Select Machine zero mode, press the manual positive or negative feed key (return direction
set by bit parameter No.183), the corresponding axis moves to the machine zero by a rapid
traverse speed (No.113). As the axis press down the deceleration switch to cut off
deceleration signal, if the pushing block begins deceleration (Bit 1 of status parameter
No.011), the operation speed is then decelerated to zero. The feeding keeps rapid rate and
depart from the deceleration switch, when the DEC signal contact is closed, the feeding
slows down to zero, then run reversely to return to machine zero in a low speed.
B: In the reverse running, it presses down the deceleration switch to cut off the DEC signal
contact and continues returning; as it departs from the deceleration switch, the deceleration
signal contact is closed again. And CNC begins to detect the encoder one-turn signal (PC), if
this signal level skips, the motion will be halted. And the corresponding axis zero return
indicator on the operation panel lights up for zero return completion.

If the pushing block deceleration begins (The Bit 1of the status parameter equals to 1), the
feed speed decelerates to zero, then it runs reversely by low return speed.

Connection
C: If the setting block begins to decelerate (The Bit 1 of the status parameter No.011 sets to 0), it
is still operated with same speed when its speed descends. When the deceleration signal
contactor is closed, the operation speed decelerates to zero till leaving the deceleration
switch, and then it reversely operates with low speed based upon the machine tool zero.
D: As the proximity switch touches the deceleration switch for the second time in reverse running,
deceleration signal contact is cut off, it still runs by low return speed; as it detaches the
deceleration switch, deceleration signal contact is closed again, so the movement stops. The
zero return indicator for the corresponding axis on the panel lights up for zero return
completion.

using the servo motor one-turn signal
There are four zero return methods for rotation axis, which are separately divided into: A, B, C
and D. Wherein, zero return method A, B and C are identical with the one of the linear axis. Only the
D is a special zero return method of the rotation axis.
When the controllable axis is rotation one, and the Bit 6 of status parameter No.188 sets to 1,
select the machine zero return method D.

404
 Chapter 2 Definition and Connection of Interface Signal

gearing is inactive, alarm will be issued when M41～M44 is being executed and only one of them is
active at a time.
When spindle auto gearing is used to control automatic spindle mechanical gear switching, as
CNC executes S□□□□ code, it calculates the analog voltage output to spindle servo or frequency
inverter based on the parameter of the current gear by M4n (M41 ～ M44 to data parameters
No.037~No.040 respectively) to make the actual speed to be consistent with the S code.
When CNC is powered on, the spindle gear memorizing is set by the BIT1 of bit parameter
No.168.
If the BIT4 of bit parameter No.001 is 0, the spindle gear is not memorized at repowering after
power down, and the gear 1 will be defaulted, M41~M44 are not output. If BIT4 of bit parameter
No.001 is 1, the spindle gear is memorized at repowering after power down.
No gearing is done if the specified gear is consistent with the current gear. If not, gearing will be
performed, and the process defined by standard ladders is shown in the following:
①Execute any of M41, M42, M43, M44 codes, output analog voltage to spindle servo or
frequency inverter according to a value set by data parameter No.067 (Unit: mV);
②After a delay (gearing time 1) by the DT00, turn off the original gear output signal and output
the new gearing signal;
③If the gear is 1 or 2, and the BIT6 of the bit parameter No.164 is 1, it jumps to ④, or else it
jumps to ⑤;
④Check the gear in-position input signal M41I, M42I, it jumps to ⑤ if the gear in-position is done;
if not, the CNC waits the gear in-position signal;
⑤After a delay (gearing time 2) by DT01, output spindle analog voltage by the current gear
according to a value set by data parameter No.037~No.040 (gear 1~4) and finish the gearing.
Note: The output of M41～M44 is held on when CNC is reset or i emergency stop, which is defined by
standard PLC ladder.

③ Before M29 switch, the tapping spindle is permitted to the spindle mode or Cs contour control
mode. After the rigid tapping return, the tapping spindle returns to the previous control mode.
④ When the system is in the rigid tapping state, the manual movement tapping spindle cannot be
performed.
⑤ The rigid tapping state is cancelled in reset or emergency stop.
⑥ In M29, when the 1st or the 2nd spindle is currently used, it is switched into the rigid tapping state.
In rigid tapping, a spindle should be selected firstly to execute the rigid tapping interpolation. After
the spindle is switched into the rigid tapping state, the spindle switch is invalid.

① M20 and M21 are a pair of M commands for controlling the spindle clamp and release, and
they are for clamping the spindle after positioning, so that the spindle won’t rotate due to the
force during drilling or tapping.
② During executing M20, to avoid the clamped spindle servo motor current too big, CNC will
control the spindle and cut off the servo after the delay time set by DT23, and then, the
spindle servo reduces the motor excitation, while the position control can’t be executed.
However the position detection can still functions and the position won’t get lost.

Spindle CS shifts the M code [Setting value +1 is the M code of the function releasing].
Note 1: When the spindle positioning function is enabled that is regarded as the M code of the
spindle positioning method shifting.
Note 2: The setting value should be performed based upon compiled CS shifting M code in the
ladder diagram.
Note 3: The setting value is disabled when it is less than 6, in this case, the CS axis shifting will
not perform the coordinate system clearing.

z Function description（Standard PLC program definition）

① The system stops the detection spindle when executing the M14, simultaneously, output the
spindle releasing signal; the spindle is then converted into positioning mode after confirming
the spindle is released; the spindle is clamped after shifted.
② When the spindle is at the positioning mode, the arbitrary angle positioning based upon the
axis address command can be performed by G00 command. Firstly output the spindle
releasing signal when the position is performed, confirm that the spindle positions after
releasing; output the spindle clamping signal after moves to the specified position, the
positioning procedure is completed after confirming the spindle clamping.
③ The system will output the spindle releasing signal when executing M15; shift the spindle to
the controllable mode after confirming that the spindle is released, the shifting is then

performed.
④ Firstly set the Cs axis function before setting the spindle positioning function. When the
Connection

positioning function setting is enabled, only the positioning operation can be performed
instead of using the relevant function to the Cs contour control.
⑤ When the spindle positioning function is enabled, there are relevant operations between the
spindle clamping and releasing before/after positioning. Therefore, the spindle clamping
equipment should be matched with the machine tool.

output; execute M33 and the system stops it.

Connection
DT13>1: the system executes the timed lubricating output, and the output is executed by

pressing , and is cancelled when the output exceeds the one set by DT13. After the system
executes M32, the lubricating output is executed within the time set by DT13 and it is cancelled.
Execute M33 in the time set by No. 112 and the output is cancelled.

2. Automatic lubricating
When K16.2 is set to 1, the system executes the lubricating in the time set by DT17, and then
stops the output. After it keeps the stop in the time set by DT16, it executes the lubricating again

repetitively, and executes the cycle in turn. In automatic lubricating, M32, M33, on the machine
panel are valid, and the lubricating time is the one set by DT17.
Note 1: The lubricating output is disabled in emergency stop;
Note 2: K No.0.10 Bit1 sets whether the lubricating output is cancelled in reset:
Bit1＝0: the lubricating output is disabled in reset;

Bit1＝1: the lubricating output remains unchanged in reset.

Note 3: The lubricating position detectiong signal is duplicatedly usable with DEC4, therefore, when the
system uses the DEC4 signal, it is better to set the disabled lubricating position detection.
