We have had 2 instances of the spindle coming on while the orient was still engaged. Our tool change macro doesn't finish until it gets the Orient Release signal, I'm using the SignalWait command, so I don't know why it continues the macro with the Orient still in engaged. That is my issue, any ideas why it finishes the macro?
Now, to prevent this from happening again, I was wondering if there was a way to inhibit the spindle unless the orient release signal was active. I looked in the Screen Load script and found the SpinCW and SpinCCW functions, I was going to put an "if" statement in there looking for the Orient Release Signal. Is this where I need to put such code, or is there something else that needs to be done?
