B-63783EN-1/01 14.PMC CONTROL FUNCTION
- 1487 -
Workpiece number 00 is used for special designation "no search".
Thus, a workpiece number ranges from 01 to 31. The correspondence
between the workpiece number and the program number is set for
parameter No. 2049.
[Operation] In the following cases, the system searches for the program number
corresponding to the workpiece number specified by this signal.
(1) A reset is performed in memory operation mode
(2) When automatic operation is in a reset state (the automatic
operation signal OP is set to "0"), automatic operation is started in
memory operation mode (automatic operation start signal ST is
changed from "1" to "0.")
If the workpiece number is 00, no search is performed.
The retrieved program is used for:
- Automatic operation in memory operation mode
- Foreground editing in part program storage and edit mode
Extended external workpiece number search signals EWN0 to 26 <G140#0 to G143#2>
[Classification] Input signal
[Function] These signals specify the number of the workpiece to be executed in
memory operation mode.
These 27 code signals correspond to workpiece numbers, as shown in
the table below. (Binary codes)

Workpiece number 00000000 is used for special designation "no
search". Thus, a workpiece number ranges from 00000001 to
99999999.
These signals are enabled when 1 is set for parameter EWN (bit 1 of No.
2007), and are used in place of external workpiece number search
signals WN1 to WN16.
[Operation] These signals operate in the same way as external workpiece number
search signals.
