Check oscilloscope sampling rate settings

Navigate to MOD function → Settings → Machine Parameters → MP7680 (oscilloscope sampling rate) and reduce the sampling frequency to decrease data load.

Start with 1kHz sampling rate and gradually increase until stable operation is achieved.

Verify real-time buffer size configuration

Check MP7685 (real-time buffer size) in machine parameters and increase buffer allocation if system memory allows.

Increasing buffer size may affect overall system performance - monitor carefully.

Clear oscilloscope data and restart acquisition

In the oscilloscope menu, select 'Clear All Data' then restart the measurement to reset buffer pointers and clear any corrupted data streams.

Check interpolator cycle time settings

Verify MP1010 (interpolator cycle time) is properly configured - typical values are 3ms for standard applications, 1ms for high-speed machining.

Match interpolator cycle time to your application requirements - faster isn't always better for oscilloscope stability.

Adjust oscilloscope trigger timing

In the oscilloscope setup menu, modify the trigger timing to align with interpolator cycles by adjusting the pre-trigger and post-trigger buffer settings.

Synchronize data acquisition with NC program execution

Use M118 (oscilloscope start) and M119 (oscilloscope stop) commands in your NC program to control data acquisition timing relative to machining operations.

Check available system memory

Access Setup → General → System Info to verify available RAM and ensure at least 20% free memory for oscilloscope operations.

Low system memory can cause data loss and system instability.

Optimize memory usage by closing unnecessary applications

Close any non-essential TNC applications, reduce the number of active DXF files, and clear temporary program files to free system memory.

Adjust oscilloscope memory allocation parameters

Modify MP7690 (oscilloscope memory allocation) to balance between data retention and system performance requirements.

Perform oscilloscope hardware diagnostic

Navigate to Setup → Diagnosis → Hardware Test and run the integrated oscilloscope diagnostic routine to identify communication faults.

Run diagnostics during both idle and active machining conditions to identify intermittent faults.

Check oscilloscope interface connections

Verify all internal cable connections to the oscilloscope interface board are secure and show no signs of corrosion or damage.

Reset oscilloscope interface hardware

Power cycle the TNC system and perform a cold restart to reinitialize the oscilloscope interface hardware and clear any stuck communication states.

Ensure all programs are saved before performing system restart.
