QUICK START
This chapter describes, by means of some simple examples, diverse ways of
using your DNC.
L-alpha Programming.
This method is the fastest and the most currently used in the workshop
when the operator has to create himself a product from a paper
drawing.
Direct Programming.
This type of programming is often used for simple products or by
operators having worked on conventional pressbrakes without
numerical controls.
This page is very close to what an operator has to do, since he has on
one single screen all the information and fields necessary for the
programming of his product.
3D Programming.
This type of programming enables the user to visualize the
construction of its product in 3D. This mode also enables more
elaborated constructions and modifications than in 2D mode.
We assume in this part that all the necessary tools have already been
programmed as well as the machine parameters.
Access levels
We presume that the operator knows how to reach level 1, or that the key of
the front panel (option) is on position 1. Should this not be the case, see
chapter Protection of the Access Levels further in this manual.
The screens of this manual have been captured with the PC 1200 Windows
software. The screens however are identical in the DNC 1200 2D.
Reminder:
You will find the correspondence between the keys of the DNC and those of
a PC keyboard in the 2D Reference Manual under External keyboard.
These procedures indicate to the operator a programming method
recommended by CYBELEC, enabling to assimilate by the example the
functioning of the software.
For additional information, please consult the 2D Reference Manual and/or
the 3D Reference Manual, which each contains a table of contents and a
detailed index facilitating the search for information.

This operation erases only the data of the work memory. That means that the
product which is possibly located in the work memory is not lost if it has
been saved beforehand.
PUNCH ADJUSTMENT
This chapter as well as the following Die Adjustment are optional when
programming in 2D mode.
It is interesting to look them over, for the TOOLS POSITION page enables
to define several places of work and hence to the operator to visualize the
tools assembly.
If the tools assembly is not important, skip these two chapters.
The tools definition will be made directly in the PRODUCT NUMERICAL
page (page in which you still are at this stage of the procedure).

Each database (punchs and dies) is limited to 200 tools.
You can also call the end of the list by introducing the value
999 or recall the begin of the list by introducing 001.
Proceed in the same way for the DIE.
Remark:
* The PUNCH and DIE fields in the upper part of the screen designate the
general tool for the calculation of the product. If a product is being
programmed via the PRODUCT NUMERICAL page, it is mandatory to
enter these two items.
The PUNCH and DIE columns in the table allow to specify a different tool
for a given bend.
In the BEND NUMERICAL page, there are also a PUNCH and a DIE field.
If the product has been programmed via the PRODUCT NUMERICAL
page, these fields will be empty or partially filled if tools have been entered
in the corresponding columns of the table of the PRODUCT NUMERICAL
page. This is so because these fields correspond to the ones in the table.
(Also see the section Direct Programming (BEND NUM) further in this
manual).

before the edge of the product.
Hint:
Introduce first all the lengths and then the angles. This way of operating is
much faster.
PROGRAMMING SECTION 2
The definition of the bending direction is done by inversing the angle sign,
however the choice of the side is arbitrary, but has to be constant for the
whole profile of the product.

In the just programmed example we can see that the searching for the
bending range has first placed the section 1, and then the section 2.
The operator has the possibility to modify the bending range (see the
corresponding chapter in the 2D Reference Manual) or to ask the software to
respect specific criteria like minimum of swings or returns. For that, please
refer to the 2D Reference Manual, section Simulation criteria.
In case where the software program does not find any solution, the bending
range must be imposed manually.

The way of programming described above (section Entering the Data (1))
requires of the operator to subtract the steel thickness from the external
dimension of the product. The procedure described below will facilitate the
programming. It has, however, some limitations depending on the product
and the chosen bending order.
The hint consists of entering the external dimension in the X field of the
backgauge, and to program a constant negative correction corresponding to
(approximately, according to your experience, to the tools and to the
material) the material thickness for the entire product.
This procedure is described hereafter:

Position the cursor on the ANGLE field, BEND column, and enter
the measured angle (93.0 in this case). The software automatically
calculates the necessary correction (-0.292,which can be seen in the
Y1, Y2 fields, in the BEND column). Also see the 2D Refrence
Manual in the Corrections section.
Carry out a second test bend (on the same sequence, with a second
test product). If necessary, make a new correction.
Depending on the material, the machine adjustment and the exactness
of the data introduced, 2 or 3 corrections can be necessary for a bend.
This can be considered as being a normal situation.

It is not necessary to save the product which has been programmed in the
work memory, if this one is of no more use once the product executed.
Generally, the product will be saved only if it has to be kept for future use.
A non-saved product in the work memory is recognizable, for the
PRODUCT field is empty.
The ENC is also provided with a memory which contains a copy of the
product located in the work memory. This copy is transferred to the ENC
when switching to semi-automatic or automatic mode.
An other memory, belonging to the DNC again, is the Floppy (disk).
Generally, the Floppy is used for the saving (backup) of important products,
the tools, and/or the machine parameters.
Therefore, the transfer page is used.
Although a product can be searched or stored directly in the Floppy, this
operation will be made very rarely because of the access speed.
Complementary memories can be those offered by a network access.
When normally configurated, the DNC always memorizes and searchs its
products in the INTERNAL memory. It is possible to attribute an other
memory by default to it (see Active Peripherals in the 2D Reference
Manual).
PAGE 48
GENERAL INFORMATION
Depending on the version, the DNC 1200 can or can not be equipped with a
4positions physical key.
However the protection levels 0-1-2 and 3 still exist.
For the case where the physical key doesn't exist, the access is made by
password.
Thus, in this manual we will always speak of a (virtual) key position like
e.g.: "Key in position 3".

The authorized level is shown in the bottom right box in the screen.
Otherwise a message indicating that the user is not authorized is
displayed.
Once the authorization acquired, the operator can change the level among
those authorized to him without reappearing of a new password request.
For instance, a user with access on level 3 can navigate between levels 1, 2
and 3 without having to give his password again.
If level 0 is activated, the access on any other level will require to introduce
the password again.
This request also will appear when the user passes to a superior level (from 0
to 1, from 1 to 2, from 2 to 3, etc.) and he has no access authorization.
Advice
If you have accessed to level 3, access to level 0 after your intervention. This
will avoid to make undesired changings by inadvertence.

PC PROTECTION KEY
The key must be equipped with at least the options 20, 25 to authorize
PC1200 to work.
Install the protection key on the parallel port LPT1 (printer).
If a printer is connected to the computer (via the key) it must imperatively be
switched on.
Notes:
Always switch the PC or DNC off before connecting or
disconnecting a protection key !
The printer port of the PC or the DNC and/or the protection key might
become damaged if the key is connected or disconnected while the
power supply is switched on.
The protection key must be connected to the (first) printer port
(parallel port, LPT1) of the PC or the DNC.
Never connect the protection key to a serial port ("com port") !
This may cause damage to the protection key and/or the serial port of
the PC or the DNC.
If a printer is connected to the protection key, it must be switched on
for correct operation.
As a rule, a stack of multiple protection keys may be connected to the
printer port of the PC.
In some cases, the order of the keys may be important for correct
operation of the different software packages using these keys. In case
of problems, always start first to connect a single key (and do not
connect the printer) to determine if this solves the problem. If yes,
then try to add the other keys in different orders to determine the
correct order. If the problem cannot be solved for multiple keys,
consider to use a printer switch-box to switch between the different
protection keys.
PAGE 67
For CYBELEC protection keys, only keys with different colours may
be stacked. Keys with the same colour may not be stacked.
This also means that a replacement of the protection key may be
necessary in case that an installed version of the software is updated
to a version with different options.
When starting, the software displays the WELCOME page.
At the bottom of this page you can read the serial number of the key, as well
as the available options.
If it happened that the key would not be recognized, the message ILLEGAL
CONFIGURATION appears, the serial number is empty and it is not
possible to go into other pages of the software.
In this case: leave the software, carry out each of the points below by always
restarting the software in order to know if the point has solved the problem.
-
Let only the key alone switched on, without printer, without cable,
without another key or another periphery (for the rest of the tests).
Install the Sentinel driver which is found in the CD directory under the
directory \Tools\Win_NT_2000\SproDrivers_NT359. For that,
execute the setup.exe which is found in this directory.
If the result is also negative on another PC, then the protection key may
have been damaged. This requires a replacement.
