Quick tool change question :)
«

Hello all. I have a 24 pocket tool changer that works GREAT, the only problem is my orientate sensor for the spindle crapped out on me. I need to make the machine work by putting the tools in by hand. Do I need to change the "Tool Change" in "General Config" to "Stop Spindle. Wait for Cycle Start"? Will this bypass my m6start macro?
Thanks

Yes that should just do as it says, stop and wait for start.

I don't think it will bypass the M6start it just waites for a MANUAL cycle start to run.

When Set to "Stop Spindle, Wait for Cycle Start", Mach3 runs the M6Start first, then stops and waits for Cycle Start, then runs M6End.

Yes just tested and it does indeed. Easy solution, rename your M6 macros and replace with standard ones until you get the orientation sorted.
