WITH THE WIDE SPREAD OF CNC TECHNOLOGY, AN EFFICIENT SERVICE METHOD IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON A QUICK AND PRECISE LOCATION OF A PROBLEM WITHIN A MACHINE TOOL. USING 32-BIT TECHNOLOGY IN CNCS, ENOUGH COMPUTING AND COMMUNICATION POWER IS AVAILABLE TO HAVE THE CNC ACT AS THE DIAGNOSTIC FACILITY FOR ITSELF AND THE COMPLETE SYSTEM. THE IMD (INTEGRATED MACHINE DIAGNOSTICS FEATURE) IS INCLUDED IN A CC200/300 CONTROL WHICH MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO RECORD AND VISUALIZE DIGITAL EVENTS IN A LOGIC ANALYZER MODE, MOTION EVENTS IN AN AXIS OSCILLOSCOPE MODE, AND OPERATING EVENTS IN A LOG-BOOK MODE. THIS INFORMATION SUBSEQUENTLY CAN BE TRANSMITTED TO THE SERVICE CENTER OF THE MACHINE TOOL BUILDER TO ALLOW THE TECHNICIANS TO REMOTELY ANALYZE THE PROBLEM.
