SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This manual includes safety precautions for protecting the user and preventing damage to
the machine. Precautions are classified into Warnings and Cautions according to their
bearing on safety. Also, supplementary information is described as Notes. Read the
Warnings, Cautions, and Notes thoroughly before attempting to use the machine.
WARNING
Applied when there is a danger of the user being injured or when there
is a danger of both the user being injured and the equipment being
damaged if the approved procedure is not observed.
CAUTION
Applied when there is a danger of the equipment being damaged, if the
approved procedure is not observed.

The parameters for the CNC and PMC are factory-set. Usually,
there is no need to change them. When, however, there is no
alternative other than to change a parameter, ensure that you fully
understand the function of the parameter before making any
change.
Failure to set a parameter correctly may result in the machine
behaving unexpectedly, possibly causing damage to the workpiece
and/or machine itself, or injury to the user.

CAUTION
1. The operator's manual for Basic Operation Package 1 describes all
the basic functions of the CNC unit, including the optional
functions. The selected optional functions vary with the machine.
Some functions described in the manual may not, therefore, be
supported by your machine.
NOTE
l Command programs, parameters, and variables are stored in
nonvolatile memory in the CNC. Generally, the contents of memory
are not lost by a power on/off operation. However, the contents of
memory may be erased by mistake, or important data in nonvolatile
memory may have to be erased upon recovering from a failure.
To enable the restoration of data as soon as possible if such a
situation arises, always make a backup of the data in advance.

PREFACE
Thank you for purchasing the FANUC Basic Operation Package 1.
FANUC Basic Operation Package 1 (called Basic Operation Package 1
hereinafter) allows the user to perform basic CNC and PMC operations in an
Open CNC environment.
Basic Operation Package 1 is supported by Microsoft Windows. This
manual does not explain the basic common operations of Windows.
Users who are using Windows for the first time should read the manuals on
Windows first to become familiar with the basic operation of Windows.
Read this manual thoroughly to ensure the correct use of Basic Operation
Package 1.
NOTE
The purchased software product can be copied within the plant, as
required. The machine tool builder should ship machines together with
a backup copy of the software product.
FANUC holds the copyright on this software product. Redistributing
the entire software product, or part of it, to a third party to develop an
application is not allowed.
Features
l Implements the basic CNC and PMC operations under Windows, thus
providing a more user-friendly operating environment.
l Offers operability such that current users of FANUC CNCs can quickly
become familiar with the system.
l Allows customization to improve operability, such as modifying the
screen settings or adding or deleting a screen.

(2) When the emergency stop button is pressed
(3) When the coordinate system is changed after the previous
automatic operation is stopped
For example:
G92 was specified in MDI mode.

This section describes the creation of an ActiveX control.
The CNC screen of Basic O/peration Package 1 are COM objects that
support visual editing. This CNC screen also has automation functions
(property, method, event), which will be described later. The CNC screen is
usually created as an ActiveX control which is an inproc ActiveX
component. The screen can be used with Visual Basic or Internet Explorer.

Copy the message files and INI files and set the subfolder information in the
Basic Operation Package. Then, the Japanese-language environment can be
used.
-430-
B-62994EN/02
NOTE
l The message files and INI files can be placed in a single folder
l The folders containing the English message files and English INI
files can neither be deleted nor renamed.
Message file
This binary file stores the messages that can be displayed. The
message file can be created by the message file generator provided with
Basic Operation Package 1. For an explanation of the procedure for
creating the message file, see Appendix 4, "Message File Generator."
INI file
This text file stores the messages that can be displayed on the
[Parameter] screen and [Diagnosis] screen and the messages output
upon the occurrence of an NC alarm or PMC alarm. The messages can
be displayed in the desired language by replacing that part enclosed by
a pair of double quotation marks ("") with the desired language.
lAdding a desired language environment
A desired language environment can be added to the Basic Operation
Package either manually or by using ADDLANG.EXE, an installer.
NOTE
Before adding a desired language environment, activate and
terminate Basic Operation Package 1 at least once. For an
explanation of how to activate and terminate Basic Operation
Package 1, see Section 2.1, "Starting and Terminating Basic
Operation Package 1."
This appendix describes the general procedure for adding a
language environment.
B-62994EN/02
Name
Specifies a language name.
MsgDir
Specifies the subfolder into which message files are
copied.
IniDir
Specifies the subfolder into which the INI files are
copied.
Specify the subfolder as follows:
To place the message files in the C:\BOP\MESSAGE folder
included in Basic Operation Package folder C:\BOP, specify
MESSAGE.
- Edit the [Files] section.
In the [Files] section, specify the files to be added, in the
following format:
-432-
B-62994EN/02
MSG
Message file folder specified in the [Setup] section
INI
INI file folder specified in the [Setup] section
DLL
Windows system folder
4. Copy ADDLANG.EXE, SETUP.LST, and other files to be added
into the same folder on the same disk.
When ADDLANG.EXE is executed, the files of the desired language
are installed.
(Example: #1234)
When the input value is smaller than 10000, the corresponding message
ID is referenced in the ID MSG_MENU group (MSG_MENU.MSG file).
When the input value is greater than or equal to 10000, the message ID of
the input number minus 10000 is referenced in the ID MSG_USER group
(MSG_USER.MSG file).
NOTE
l FANUC does not provide message file MSG_USER.MSG of
group ID MSG_USER.
l No message ID can be input for the character string of the
following items:
- Screen object ID
- OLE ProgID

MSGGEN.EXE :
Message generator.
This program automatically
creates a message file and message ID header file from
the message generator parameter file and message text
file.
-434-
B-62994EN/02
Explanation
Message file path
A language name and the path of the message file of the language are
specified. The full path name must be specified. Different paths must
be specified for different languages. The language name is used as a
language ID in the message file. When adding a new language,
specify the language name and path here.
Message text file path
The path of the message text files is specified. The full path name
must be specified.
-435-
B-62994EN/02
NOTE
The path specified in the message generator parameter file must
be created in advance. If the specified path cannot be found, the
following error occurs when the message generator is executed:
Error No2: Can't open file_name

Message ID
Unique name assigned to each message. The message ID must be
specified using up to 16 characters.
Language ID and messages in different languages
The language IDs specified in the message generator parameter file
and the messages written in the corresponding languages are specified.
Note the following restrictions:
A character string following an exclamation mark (!), except for any
within a character string, is assumed to be a comment.
An intervening blank or tab, except for any within a character string,
is ignored.
A single character string must be enclosed by a pair of double
quotation marks.
A single character string enclosed by a pair of double quotation marks
can be coded over multiple lines. Two or more character strings can
be coded on a single line. For example, the message in , above, is
displayed as follows:
111222333"SECOND LINE THIRD LINE" END
The length of a single message is not limited. Each line can be up to
512 characters long.
A double quotation mark (") is coded as \", \ as \\, a line feed character
as \n, and a tab character as \t.
"AB\"CD\"EF"
AB"CD"EF
"\\10.000"
\10.000
The messages for all the languages specified in the parameter file
must be included.
