Arceye, apparently I am doing something wrong. I did everything you said above. The file is edited, renamed and replacing the old M6Start.m1s file in my lathe profile. I have entered 1 into the tool dro after homing and setting the carousel on tool 1. If I enter M6 T303, it says, selected tool slot number too large. The tool number box does not change at all now no matter if I use just T3 or M6 T3, M6 T301, M6 T303 with or without spaces, of course the carousel isnt rotating either so it didnt suprise me. I am thinking my problem is how I am accessing the file(M6Start.m1s) in the "operator" drop down of Mach. I open Mach
click on operator
click on VB script editor
click file
click open file
My profile folder from within C/Mach3 pops up and I select "M6Start.m1s"
click open, and now the correct file is in the editor window (I see it has the corrected line as you asked me to change)
At this point I am confused on what to really do, if I select any "run command on the toolbar of the editor it tells me "syntax error". I am not sure what to have expected there, possibly an arrow going down sequentially thru the lines? Anyway I am not sure of exactly how to close/save or implement the file at this step. And how would I check to see that it had been implemented?
Thanks, John
