• Manufacturer: FANUC

• Product Family: A02B-0281 (MDI/HMI interface units)

• Type: Horizontal Separate-Type Manual Data Input (MDI) unit — a dedicated keypad module that connects to a CNC control system.

📌 Function

This MDI unit provides a manual operator input interface to FANUC CNC controls, allowing the operator to enter:
