Similarily, the addresses used for battery back-ip memory cannot be used for
keep relays.
3. Note that keep registers (#8000 to #9999) cannot be used for the keep relays.

4.1 Differences In Operation

There are two types of operation modes in the sequence control-relay sequence and PLC
sequence.
4.1.1 Relay Sequence

All devices are processed simultaneously.
4.1.2 PLC Sequence

Sequence control by PLC is executed sequentially by the software, which differs from the
ordinary control by relay circuits in which processing is executed simultaneously. Due to this
characteristic, the sequence control by PLC results in considerably different operation from
ordinary relay circuit processing. When developing programs, this must be completely under-
stood.
Devices are processed sequentially and the ladder is executed repeatedly in a fixed period.
This period is called the scan time.
Fig. 4.1.2.1 PLC Sequence Program

The PLC sequence ladder above operates in the following sequence. The operation is not
processed simultaneously.
The status of contact A is read.
ó The read status is output to internal relay B.
ì The status of contact A is read.
ö AND operation is executed between the status of contact A and the status of NC contact of
relay B.
ú The result of AND operation is output to internal relay D.

As the result of sequential processing, internal relay D is never turned ON.
However, if the same ladder is executed in relay sequence, relay D is momentarily turned ON
(one-shot operation).
As discussed above, programming must always be carried out taking into consideration that pro-
cessing by the PLC is executed sequentially.
4-2
4.2 Operation of Sequence Program
4.2.1 Sequence Program

Length of time necessary for the execution of one cycle of a sequence program is called the scan
time. The scan time of this model of PLC is indicated below.
• High-speed processing scan time: 8 msec
• Low-speed processing scan time: 8 msec × n
This means, with this PLC, the sequence program can be processed by dividing it into a high
speed processing part and low-speed processing part. Therefore, the sequence program must be
written in the format indicated below.
Fig. 4.2 Sequence Program Format

As indicated above, the sequence program that requires high-speed processing should be entered
first and the sequence program for which low-speed processing is acceptable should be entered
after that.
4.2.2 Operation
The operation time chart of PCNC sequence program is indicated below.
Fig. 4.3 PCNC Operation Time Chart
4-3
(1) High-speed Processing Sequence Program

The high-speed processing sequence program, from the beginning of the sequence pro-
gram up to the RTH instruction, is executed once every setting scan time or less as shown in
the time charts above.
During the processing of the high-speed sequence program, the input status remains
unchanged.
The high-speed processing sequence program treats only the portion where high-speed
response is required, such as counting the contact ON/OFF.
Therefore, this should be limited only to the requisite program.The capacity must be less
than 1000 steps when converted into the contact instructions.
(2) Low-speed Processing Sequence Program

The low-speed processing sequence program entered following the RTH instruction is divided
into “n” sections and one of these sections is executed in the remaining time in each setting
interval. That is, the low-speed processing sequence program is executed once in “setting
scan time × n”.
Scan time of the low-speed processing sequence program is influenced by the total capacity
of the sequence program. As seen above, value “n” will be smaller as the total program capac-
ity and the high-speed processing program capacity are smaller.
For PCNC, NC service task takes priority. If the divided low-speed program is perform-ed in
the setting scan section, the remaining program will not be performed in the next section. The
execution of low-speed sequence program is determined by system soft-ware, which monitors
the load of entire system.
Sequence program size that can be processed in a 8-msec interval is approximately 6000 steps
in contact instructions. This size is the total of high-speed processing sequence program and
low-speed processing sequence program.
4-4
Since the low-speed processing sequence program is executed in several sections, the status
of inputs will be changed during the execution of the program. Therefore, the inputs that are
used for the execution of the low-speed processing sequence program should be taken into the
internal relays at the start of the low-speed processing sequence program, and for the execu-
tion of the low-speed processing sequence program, the contacts of the relays where the inputs
have been received should be used as the input signals.
Fig. 4.4 Low-speed Processing Sequence Program
By creating the program in this manner, one cycle of the low-speed processing sequence pro-
gram can be executed under the same input signal status.
1. If the results of the high-speed processing sequence program are output to the low-speed
processing program, the same consideration must be given to the creation of the program.
2. The signals that should not be output until one cycle of the low-speed processing pro-
gram is executed should not be directly output to the PLC address used for external out-
puts. Such signals should first be input to the internal relays and they should be connected
to the external output addresses at the end of the low-speed processing sequence program.
Fig. 4.5 External Output Addresses
(3) Reading and Outputting the State
(a) Reading the input state

After execution of the 8-msec high-speed sequence program, the status of all inputs is
read into the PLC collectively.
At the beginning of the 8-msec intervals, the previous output status is output collec-
tively.
4-5
4.3 Sequence Program Memory Capacity and Memory Configuration

The PCNC program memory of this PLC can be divided into the areas indicated below.
Fig. 4.6 PCNC Program Memory
Generally, relay instructions occupy 4 to 16 bytes and other instruction 1 to 39 bytes.

Assuming that one instruction occupies an average of 16 bytes, 384K byte memory area
is equivalent to 24K steps (384K/16 = 24K).

5.1 PLC Address
When creating a sequence program, input/output signals of PLC, internal relays, timers, battery
back-up memory and other devices in the PLC are designated by an address number (four-digit
number following #) and a bit number (bit 0 to bit 7).
(1) Designation of I/O Signals, Internal Relays, and Other Devices (One-bit Device)
The devices which have one-bit information are designated by a five digit number (address
number + bit number) following “#” as indicated below.

5-2
5.2 Address Map and Display Symbols
The address map and the relationship with external devices is shown below.
(1) Addresses of Input Signals from the Machine (#1000 to #1063)

For the signals input from the machine operation panel and electric control panel, such as
those of push-button switches and limit switches, addresses #1000 to #1063 are assigned.
The correspondence between the address and the input signal should be determined by the
machine tool builder.
• One bit of address (#1000 to #1063) corresponds to one point of input signals.
Address number and bit number are determined depending on the pin number and the
connector number of the I/O board where the input signal is connected.
Example:
• The input signals of #1000 to #1063 are expressed by the following symbols.
5-3
(2) Addresses of Output Signals to the Machine (#1100 to #1163)

For the signals output to the machine operation panel and electric control panel, such as the
signals of lamps and solenoids, addresses #1100 to #1163 are assigned. The correspondence
between the address and the output signal should be determined by the machine tool builder.
• One bit of address (#1100 to #1163) corresponds to one point of output signals.
Address number and bit number are determined depending on the pin number and the
connector number of the I/O board where the output signal is connected.
Example:

(3) Addresses of Input Signals from the NC’s Main Section (#3500 to #3799)
For the signals input from the NC main section, in other words, the signals output from the
NC main section to the PLC, such as M-BCD signal, addresses #3500 to #3799 are assigned.
The correspondence between the signal name and the address is determined by the NC and
cannot be changed.

selection signals, address #3000 to #3159 are assigned.
The correspondence between the signal name and the address is determined by the NC and
cannot be changed.
• One bit of address (#3000 to #3159) corresponds to one point of output signals.
Example:
• The output signals of #3000 to #3159 are expressed by the following symbols.
(5) Addresses of Internal Relays (#1200 to #2994; excluding #1300 to #1399 and #1700 to
#1799)
For the internal relays that can be used only in the PLC to create a sequence program
addresses #1200 to #2994 (excluding #1300 to #1399 and #1700 to #1799) are assigned.
• One bit of address of #1400s, for example, corresponds to one piece of internal relay.
Example:
• The number of usable internal relays is indicated below.

500 bytes × 8 bits = 4000 relays
5-5
The internal relay and its contact are expressed by the following symbol.
There are no limits to the number of contacts (NO and NC contacts) as long as the
program capacity is not exceeded.
• The address used for registers cannot be used for internal relays.
(6) Addresses of Internal Registers (#1200 to #2994; excluding #1300 to #1399 and #1700 to
#1799)
For the general-purpose one-byte (eight bits) register, address #1200 to #2994 (excluding
#1300 to #1399 and #1700 to #1799) are assigned.
These registers are used for register instruction and workpiece address for macro instructions,
• One address number corresponds to a one-byte register.

• An example of a timer symbol is indicated below.

Example:

(8) Address of Battery Back-up Memory (pm7000 to pm7099, #7100 to #9999)

For the memory to which addresses of #7000s are assigned, such memory is called the
“battery back-up memory”. The data saved to this type of memory are therefore retained
even when the power is turned OFF.
The battery back-up memory data are classified into the following three types:
• Sequence parameters:pm7000 to pm7099
• Keep relays: #7100 to #7999
• Keep memory: #8000 to #9999
(a) Sequencer Parameter Data
The sequencer parameter data are transferred from the NC main section to the PLC in the
following case in addition to the time when the power is turned ON.
Even if one item of sequencer parameter data is changed by parameter write operation, the
entire sequencer parameter data are transferred collectively.
In a sequence program, it is allowed only to read the sequence parameter data. Do not
attempt to change the data.
(b) Data in the Keep Relay and Keep Memory Data
Image data saved in the keep relays and the keep memory in the PLC change continuously
since the data are read and written as the sequence program is executed. Therefore, it is
necessary to transfer the latest image data in the PLC to the battery back-up memory in the
NC main section as the source data. This data transfer is called the automatic data trans-
fer.
While the power is ON, the data in #7100 to #9999 are collectively transferred from the
PLC to the NC.
In the PCNC PLC sequence ladder program, the battery back-up memory can be read
and written directly.
Fig. 5.1 Handling of PCNC Sequence Program
5-8
(9) Addresses of Sequencer Parameters (pm7000 to pm7099)

For the sequencer parameters, address pm #7000 to pm7099 are assigned. The data set for
sequencer parameters can be changed by using the normal parameter write operation. When
using the data of these parameters in a sequence parameter, the following two methods are
available.
• To use as one-bit data
• To use as one-byte data
(a) Using as one-bit data
Example:
The symbol used in the ladder is indicated below.
(b) Using as one-byte data

Example:
In this case, the address number itself is used as the symbol.

See the example below where a parameter is used with a timer instruction.
5-9
(10) Addresses of Keep Relays (#7100 to #7999)

For the keep relays that can be used in the PLC, address #7100 to #7999 is assigned.
• One bit corresponds to one piece of keep relay.
Example:
• The number of usable keep relays is indicated below.

900 bytes × 8 bits = 7200 relays
• Keep relays and contacts are expressed by the following symbol.
5 - 10
(11) Address of Keep Memory (#8000 to #9999)

For the one-byte keep memory where the data can be retained after power OFF, addresses
#8000 to #9999 are assigned. With the exception that the keep memory can retain the saved
data, it can be used in the same manner as with the registers.
Therefore, the keep memory can be used as the object of register instructions or auxiliary data
of macro instructions.
When writing a sequence program for random type ATC memory, a keep memory must be
used.
• For one-byte (8 bits) keep memory, address number #8000 or above is assigned.
Example:
2900 in the range from #8000 to #9999

• For the keep memory, the address number itself is used as the symbol.
80
80
• For the devices that have one-byte or larger information, a four-digit address number is
assigned.
Although the data are basically of one-byte construction, the data can be handled as two-
byte or four-byte data by the setting for the parameter.
5 - 11
In the case of two or four-byte data, the address is specified as a one-byte unit address;
the address of the least significant byte is used as the address for two or four-byte data.
(12) Writing the Initial Values for Keep Relays and Keep Memory
When keep relays and keep memory are used in a sequence program, it is necessary to set the
initial values for these devices before running the program.
Set the initial values following the procedure indicated below.
In MMI environment, select UTILITIES.
ó From Utilities screen, select LOGIN.
ì To initialize values for Keep Relays and Keep Memory you must log in at
Machinist Level or Higher. Also, at the bottom of the Login screen
“Enable Parameter Change” option must be selected.
ö Now, select the “Maintenance” screen and hit “PLC Diagnostics”
ú In this screen, simply search for the keep relay or keep memory
that you wish to initiate. Once you have found your address, simply click on it
to select it.
÷ Once you have selected your address bit, click on “SET”.

6.1 Registers
The PLC has registers where the intermediate results of logical operation in a sequence program
are saved. Configuration of these registers is “1bit +16bits”.
6.1.1 Result Register (RR)
This is a one-bit register where the result of presently executed operation is set.
Setting the status (0 or 1) of contact to RR by using the LD instruction and outputting the contents
of RR to the relay address by using the OUT instruction are possible.
It is also possible to shift the contents of RR to the stack register by one bit or to shift the contents
of the stack register to RR by one bit after the completion of operation by using the STR or AND-
STR instruction.
6.1.2 Stack Register (ST0 to ST15)
When executing a long logical operation, it is possible to save the intermediate result to the stack
register by up to 16 bits.
The STR and STR-NOT instructions move the data in RR to ST0 and, sequentially, the data in the
stack registers to the right one bit.
The AND-STR and OR-STR instructions execute the operation between the data in ST0 and RR,
set the result to RR and shift the data in stack register to the left by one bit. After the execution of
these instructions, “0” is set for ST15. Both the number of STR and STR-NOT instructions, and
the number of AND-STR and OR-STR instructions must be the same during the execution of a
series of logical operations, otherwise, an error occurs. In other words, the number of data saving
times to the stack register and the number of data fetching times from the stack register must be
the same.

CV PV Paradym31 Variable Name
(c) Explanation
• Setting range is from 0 to 255 in decimal. However, the setting must be made in
hexadecimal.
If the setting is “255”, the timer does not count up.
• The following five types of timers can be used.
Address No. Timer Type Number of Timers
#1700 to #1709, #1760 to #1769

1 = 8 msec 40
#1300 to #1309, #1360 to #1369
#1710 to #1729, #1790 to #1799

1 = 0.1 sec 60
#1310 to #1329, #1390 to #1399
#1730 to #1749, #1780 to #1789

1 = 50 msec 60
#1330 to #1349, #1380 to #1389
#1750 to #1759, #1350 to #1359 1 = 1 sec 20
#1770 to #1773, #1370 to #1373 1 = 1 min 8
• Accuracy of timers depends on the basic unit value.

With a timer of #1770, for example, setting of “2” sets the count-up time in the
range of 61 to 120 seconds since the setting unit of this timer is “1 = 1minute”.
• To use the timers of #1300 to #1399, the compile of Ver. 3.5 or later necessary.

7.1 Outline of Offline System

The off-line system is used to create the sequence ladder by using the compiler, linker and
download tools among the utilities provided for the development of PLC sequence programs.
These tools run on the MS-DOS.
7.1.1 Operating Environment
Hardware: IBM PC/AT or compatibles

OS: MS-DOS Ver.6.2 or above.
Memory: 400K bytes minimum
7.1.2 Execution Files
The YASNAC PCNC off-line systems consists of the following software packages.
• J1LCOMP.EXE Ladder language compiler
• J1LLINK.EXE Linker
7.1.3 Outline of the Execution Files
(1) Ladder Language Complier
The compiler compiles the source file, coded using the ladder language, to generate the object
file.
The processing objective data by the compiler is indicated below.
• Version number
• High-speed scan ladder program
• Low-speed scan ladder program
• Low speed ladder stop count
• Conversion data table
• Message data table
• Symbol data
PCNC treats the low-speed ladder stop count as no-meaning code.
(2) Linker
The linker generates the binary file in the executable format from the object file which is out-
put by the compiler.
7-2
7.1.4 Sequence Program Development Procedure

The following chart shows the YASNAC PCNC procedure for developing the sequence program.

7.2 Source File
The format of source file input to the compiler is described below.
7.2.1 Source File Format
(1) Definition of Character Codes

• All data including the comments and character data must be ASCII.
Although upper case and lower case characters can be used, they are not distinguished
for the internal processing.When entering characters in ladder programs, pay attention
to this point.
• Note that all characters are processed in upper case characters.
(2) Definition of Numeric Values

• Decimal number 9,1234
• Hexadecimal number 1234H, 0ab12H, 0FFH (note)
• Characters aBc, a, Z
• Contact/ladder table number #1000, #10012, #9024
Note: Place “0” at the beginning of a hexadecimal number which begins with A to F.
(3) Pseudo Instructions

The following characters are processed as pseudo instructions.These pseudo instructions
can be used only once in one source file.
The following shows the available, pseudo instructions.
• version
• lowsequence
• message
• include
• highsequence

(c) Source files

• High-speed scan ladder, low-speed scan ladder source files
Write the sequence source ladder programs which should be processed at
high or low-speed.
Although there are no restrictions on start position, the number of lines or the
number of columns for entering characters, at least one space must be placed
between an instruction and address.
7-9
• Conversion data source file

Write the conversion table which is used by macro instruction SUBP007.
Although there are no restrictions on the data start line or column, at least one,
space must be placed between the table number and data.
A table number must begin with “N”.
Delimiter “,” is used between data.
• The table numbers that can be used are indicated below.
#9000 to #9007: 256bytes
#9008 to #9023: 128bytes
In normal format, data are stored in the ladder table as byte data.
To store word data, place an underscore preceding the numeric values..
7 - 10
To store double-word data, place two underscores preceding the numeric values.
Entry of the data should be only the necessary data.

If the number of data to be converted is specified as “5” using the SUBP007
instruction (N9000’ 1,2,3,4,5’), entry of 5 data is necessary, and it is not
necessary to enter 256data.
Omission of entry is treated as 0H.
• Message data source file
Write the message data to be used by the macro instruction SUBP023.
The message must be within 40 characters.
The message data must be enclosed by “ ”.
Although there are no restrictions on the data start line or column, at least
one space must be placed between the table number and “ ’ ”.
A table number must begin with “N”.
The allowable range of the table numbers is indicated below:
#9024 to #9323: 40words
#9024: ‘Spindle error occurred’
(d) Recommended source file format
The explanation has been given using examples in which source files are consolidated
in one file using the include function. In practical programming steps, the source file is
created in several sections to reduce ladder execution/check cycle time. By creating
the source files in several sections, necessary correction should be made only for the
source file which is involved with errors, thus compiling time can be reduced.

7.3 COMPILER
7.3.1 Compiler
By executing the compiler instruction, the source file which has been created of edited is
compiled to generate the object file.
(1) Starting the Compiler

The J1LCOMP is started by the following procedure.
J1LCOMP file-1 [.SRC]
[file-2[.OBJ]]
[file-3[.ERR]][ENTER]
(2) Description of Parameters

file-1: Source file name (input)
file-2: Object file name (output)
file-3: Error file name (output)
Entry for the items in [] can be omitted.
• If the entry is omitted for file-2 and file-3, a default name is set.
• If only “J1LCOMP” is input, the guide messages for inputting the parameters are
displayed.
• Example: J1LCOMP B: LADTEST [ENTER]
The LADTEST.SRC file is input and compiled. If an error occurs, LADTEST.ERR
file is created.When the source is compiled without errors, LADTEST.OBJ file is output.
• When the include function is used, compilation is required only for the main file.The files
included in the main file are compiled automatically.
7.3.2 Complier Error List
If an error occurs during compilation, the compiler outputs the error list file having the extension
of “.ERR” with the same main file name as the input file.
It is also possible to designate the file name of the error list file at start of the compiler. In this
case, the error list is output in the designated file name.
The compiler error information is stored to the error list file.
If the file has the same name as the error list file name, the existing file is detected when the error
list file is generated.
7 - 14
Error list file.
7.3.3 Complier Check Items
The compiler checks the source file for the format whether it is written in the processing
permitted format. In addition to this check, it also checks the following items.
(1) Instruction Check

• Operand code check
Permitted: LD, LD-NOT, AND . . .

(2) The Number of Setting Characters

For the characters to be set to the ladder table, the compiler checks the number of
characters whether it is within the upper and lower limits.
(3) Output Contact Check

• The compiler checks the output addresses of the OUT instruction whether they
are all unique.
• It also checks the output contact addresses whether they are within the specified range.
(4) Check on MCR/END and Nest Level

The compiler checks the correspondence between MCR and END, and also the nesting level.
7 - 15
(5) Time Check

• The compiler checks the range of registers used for timers.
• It also checks the interference in the addresses of the timers (#1700s and #1300s).
(6) Label Check

• The compiler checks the ADR label names for overlapped definition.
• The correspondence between the JMP and ADR is also cheeked.
(7) STR and AND-STR Check

The compiler checks the correspondence between the STR (STR-NOT) and AND-STR
(OR-STR)
(8) SUBP Calling Sequence Check

• The compiler checks the correspondence between the SUBP and PUSH (APSH,
TPSH, IPSHD).
• It also checks the correspondence between the SUBP and STR.
(9) Existence Check for RTH and RET

The compiler checks the RTH and RET for the following:
• Only one RTH exists.
• Either RET or RTI exists.
7 - 16
7.4 Linker
The linker reads the object file in the order in which they are designated in the link module
designation file and maps the data contained in these files in the executable format that is the
same format as in the flash ROM.
7.4.1 Object Data and Linker Processing
Linker processing for the data contained in the object files is described below.
(1) High-speed Scan Ladder Data (HIGHSEQUENCE Data)

• Execution order of the high-speed scan ladder is determined in the order of link object.
If the object data are divided into multiple objects, they are stored additionally starting
from the first address of the ladder storage area in the order of link object.
• If the high-speed scan laddr data appear after the low-speed scan ladder data, it causes
an error.
• The linker executes the max. check for the ladder storage area.
• An error occurs if there is no RTH.
• The limker checks the ADR label names for overlapped definition.
(2) Low-speed Scan Ladder Data (LOWSEQUENCE Data)

• Execution order of the low-speed scan ladder is determined in the order of link object.
If the object data are divided into multiple objects, they are stored additionally starting
from the first address of the ladder storage area in the order of link object.
• The linker executes the max. check for the ladder storage area.
• An error occurs if there is either RET nor RTI.
• The limker checks the ADR label names for overlapped definition.
(3) Conversion Table Data (CONVERSION Setting Data)

• The designated message data are stored to the address (N9000 to N9023) corresponding
to the variable number.
• An error occurs if the same variable data exist in more than one object file.
(4) Message Table Data

• The designated message data are stored to the address (N9024 to N9323) corresponding
to the variable number.
• An error occurs if the same variable data exist in more than one object file.
(5)Version Number Data (VERSION Setting Data)
• The linker stores the version number data to the desginated address.
• An error occurs if a version mumber is defined in more than object file.
7 - 17
7.4.2 Linker Operation
The linker generates the link binary file from the object output from the compiler by using the
linker instruction.
(1) Link Module File

It is necessary to create the link module file before starting the J1LLINK.
The object files to be linked are designated by this file.
(a) Link module file name
File name can be assigned as required. However, the extension must be “.LNK”.
Example: FILE1.LNK
(b) Link module file format
• Designate all object files to be linked as indicated below.
• There are no restrictions on the start line/column for the entry of characters.
• (The maximum number of characters per line is 80 including the path name.)
• Designation of the link module file must be made in one line, within 80 characters
including path name.
• The high-speed and low-speed scan ladder are executed in the order they are
designated in this file.
KANKYOU.OBJ
LADHI.OBJ
LADLOW1.OBJ
LADLOW2.OBJ
LADLOW3.OBJ
MESSAGE.OBJ
DATA.OBJ
SYMBOL.OBJ
(2) Starting the Linker

J1LLINK file1.LNK [file2] [ENTER]
Description of parameters:
file1: Link module designation file name (input)
file2: Binary file name (output)
Entry for the items in [] can be omitted.
If the entry is omitted for file2, the same file name as file 1 is assigned.
If only “J1LLINK” is input, the guide messages for inputting the parameters is displayed.
7 - 18
7.4.3 Linker Output File
The result of link by the execution of linker instruction is generated in one output file.
Example: J1LLINK YELAD.LNK[ENTER]

8.4.2 Keys Used for Editing the Ladder
The net edit screen is displayed when either the insert or the delete mode is selected. On the net
edit screen, editing is possible for one net.
A contact instruction can be input by using a function soft-key. The same restrictions as applied
for displaying the ladder are also applied for editing the ladder: a maximum of 13 contacts in one
line, no limitations on the number of lines in the vertical direction, and the maximum of 100 con-
tacts. If the number of contacts exceeds 100, the following warning message is displayed.
“CONTACT OVER!”
If the number of contacts exceeds the limit, reduce the number by dividing the net into two or
more nets or some other appropriate method and create a net again.
Register instructions other than contacts can be input in the conversational mode by entering the
first character of the instruction. To input contacts and register instructions, move the cursor to
the position where the input is possible. If an attempt is made to input them at a position where
input is not possible, the following warning message is displayed. In this case, move the cursor to
the position where the input is permitted and input them again.
“INPUT ERROR”
In the net edit mode (change or insert), the following function soft-keys are provided as the
secondary function soft-keys.
The functions of the keys are indicated below.
(1) Cursor Keys

Cursor up key: Moves the cursor up by one line.
If the cursor is in the top line in the net, the cursor does not
move even if the cursor up key is pressed.
Cursor down key: Moves the cursor down by one line.
If the cursor is in one line below the bottom line in the net, the
cursor does not move even if the cursor up key is pressed.
Cursor right key: Moves the cursor right to the next device.
If the cursor right key is pressed when the cursor is at the right
hand end position, the cursor moves to the left hand end
position.

11.1 Outline
This specification sheet explains the Dynamic Link Library (hereinafter, DLL) (for
Windows) which enables the connection and on-line debug of sequence program
development software YASNAC Paradym-31 (hereinafter, Paradym-31) and a CNC device
(YASNAC PCNC series). (The Paradym-31 has three debug methods: dual port, Ethernet,
and RS-232C. YASNAC uses only the RS-232C.)
11.2 System Outline Diagram
The YASNAC sequence program debug is performed by connecting and communicating the
Paradym-31 with the CNC device via the RS-232C.
Refer to YASNAC Paradym-31 Sequence Program Development Environment Set-up
Manual for the cable specification.
• Sequence program compilation/link

• Sequence start/stop
RS-232C
Windows-NT4.0
YASNAC Paradym-31
Sequence Debug It is possible to communicate with

the Paradym-31 when system number
switch is “4” and pm5014 d5 is “1”.
11 - 2
11.3 Paradym-31 Communication Effectiveness and Ineffectiveness

In order to communicate with the Paradym-31, the following conditions must be satisfied.
• CNC system number switch must be set to “4”.
• Paradym-31 communication effectiveness parameter (pm5014 d5=1) must be ON.
When the pm5014 d5 is changed, the NC alarm “ALM0050: PARAM REQUIRING
POWER OFF” is displayed. Therefore, it is necessary to turn on NC power after it has
been turned off.
Once the above conditions are satisfied, CNC device communication is automatically set.
Restrictions during Paradym-31 communication effectiveness:
• Ladder display does not occur when the Paradym-31 communication is performed.
If the ladder display function key is pressed, the warning “P31 is being selected!” occurs.
11.4 Where is the DLL Placed?

11.8 Each DLL
11.8.1 Ladder Compiler

INT STS = lcomp(char*psrcfile,char*pobjfile,char*perrfile);
psrcfile[64]: Name of the file to be compiled

pobjfile[64]: Name of newly compiled file
perrfile[64]: Name of the file that saves compile error data
STS =
0: Successful
Other than 0: Number of error or warning
Basically, the ladder compiler contains the YASNAC J100 specification; however, since
the following changes have been added, it is considered the Paradym-31 DLL ladder
compiler.
(1) Compatible with 16-bit Message Data
16-bit characters are converted to 32-bit SHIFT-JIS and saved in an execution module, in
order to correspond to 16-bit message data in the DLL ladder compiler.
(In conventional specifications, the message data is created by the 32-bit SHIFT-JIS.)
(2) Possible to duplicate symbol name definition for one contact number
The Paradym-31 can give more than two (a maximum of 5000) symbol definition names
to one contact number. Therefore, the compiler for the YASNAC is also capable of this
function.
For example: #10000 STEP
#10000 STEP2
(In conventional specifications, the compilation error “Variable number has duplicated
contact definition” occurs.
Process When An Error Occurs
When a compilation error occurs, the file that saves compiler error data is automatically
opened from a memo pad.

perrfile[64]:Name of the file that saves link error data
STS=
0: Successful
Other than 0: Error
When a link error occurs, the file that saves link error data is automatically opened from a
memo pad.
When the link is successful, the sum value of a binary file is displayed in the message box.
