Operation and Maintenance

NC Explorer

Allows machining program data to be transferred

NC Explorer allows CNC machining data files to be edited and managed on a computer using Windows® Explorer when the computer is connected to multiple CNCs via Ethernet.

Main functions:

• Cooperation with Windows® Explorer
• Operational CNCs are displayed as folders on Windows® Explorer.
• Drag and drop to transfer the files.

NC Monitor2

Allows multiple CNCs to be remotely monitored and controlled at the same time

Taking advantage of the network in a plant, CNC operation status can be monitored from remote locations.

Several CNCs can be connected and monitored simultaneously.

Taking advantage of connection with a factory network, CNC operation status can be monitored from remote locations. Several CNCs can be connected and monitored simultaneously.

NC Monitor2 is software which enables monitoring of remote numerical controllers (referred to as NCs) by use
of the intranet on production site.
NC Monitor2 is possible to connect to more than one NC, thus it can monitor multiple NCs at a time.

Main functions:

• Adopts the same screen structure
• The monitoring display is constructed to mirror the CNC display unit.
• Note that the screen structure of 10.4-type display is applied when 15-type or 19-type display is connected.
• Possible to select a monitoring screen that is not synchronized with display of the CNC in operation.
• Limit display/setting operation of CNCs. By setting parameters in a CNC, the availability of displaying and setting using this software can be restricted.
• Connectable CNCs are automatically listed. Connectable CNCs in a network group are automatically displayed in a list, and the CNCs can be connected by selecting them.

Remote Monitor Tool

Allows the NC to be monitored and controlled (data transfer) from a computer

y connecting a personal computer to the NC unit, various data can be checked and set using the same HMI as the NC screen.
