Title: Feed Rates in imperial
Re: Feed rates

I am having trouble trying to get the controller to respond properly .  I am using imperial measure in all my programs..  I have Parameter #115 (unit selection) set to “1”
I have Parameter  #15 (select of speed) set to “0” . I have “ G20” in the saftey line in my program.  Every thing works fine, except the feed speed  still seems to running the machine in metric feed (mm/min).  The “F” window indicates Feed in inches (ie: 30) on the right side and variable figure on the left side as the program runs..  I can adjust the feed speed manually with FRO or the F control.

I have done a test program in metric, changed Parameter #115 to “0” and the program ran with no problems indication the correct feed speed in the F pane (ie: 750 mm/mim)

Is there a parameter that I have not set, or not set right, that is causing this problem?  Is the controller not programmed to  convert metric to inches in the software program?

Any help you can give me on this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Frank

Hi Frank.

I have the older DDCSV1.1 and that feature has never worked on my older version. I am hoping someone will pop in and say that it works on the newest version.

I'll be watching this thread with high hopes.

Hi Frank：
The #115 parameter only affects the coordinate display and the jog distance. The G20 command only converts the relevant size word (XYZ) from inches to mm. The system's speed planning is processed in metric (mm), and the value displayed in the "F" window is always in mm/min. We will solve this problem in a later version.

Hi PPRINT:
The latest version is compatible with DDCSV1.1. You can download the latest installation package and update your system on the forum.
