Hi
I am facing a problem with assigning auto tool to a button
kindly help me to solve it..
for example i want to assign the Alt Right and BE button to do auto tool zero...
knowing that my code for my Auto tool zero is the following:
'chengdu xhc tec. probe z surface macro
FeedCurrent = GetOemDRO(818)    'Get the current settings, OEM DROs (818)=Feedrate DRO
ZCurrent = GetOemDro(802)   'OEM DROs (802)=Z DRO
GageH = GetOEMDRO(1001)   'OEMDRO(1001)=Gage Block Height
ZNew = ZCurrent - 300      'probe down 20 mm

Code "G90F200"         'slow feed rate to 100 MM/MIN
SetOemDRO(818,200)
Rem Code "G4 P1"         'Pause 1 second to give time to position probe plate
Code "G31 Z" &ZNew
While IsMoving()
Sleep(10)
Wend
Call SetDro (2,GageH)      'DRO(2)=Z DRO

FinalMove = GageH + 10
Code  "G0 Z" &FinalMove
Code "F" &FeedCurrent        'restore starting feed rate   
SetOemDRO(818,FeedCurrent)

so how to write it to M800.m1s
Thanks, appreciate ur reply
