I have never found one, G50 S1000 is the normal format but G50 is scaling on Mach turn.

Yes I guess it's going to be a macro job with a G or M prefix, I don't really want to strap the control down as some of my jobs are only 4mm to start with, hi.

Did you have a good Christmas?, I keep meaning to ring you about your Emco toolchanger macro, but when your up to your eyes in alligators............well you know.

Thanks for the reply,

Jim.
