Reference the macro as a Mcode in the initializaton section in Gen Config.

hi,

thanks for your reply, but can you give me an example: my initialisation string now only has "G80" in it.  the name of the macro is test.m1s, should i make my initialisation string "G80 test.m1s"

thanks,
antoine

You need to rename your Macro AS say M300 and place it in the macro directory. Then the string would read "G80 M300"
