Start in the middle of the program
« on: August 13, 2010, 03:45:54 PM »
How do I start the program on a certain line instead of at the beginning?  I am fully aware of offsets, tool offsets....ect so those won't be a issue.

If you use the demo version then you cant.
If you have a licenced version then you can use Run From Here or Set Next line.

Just click in the code screen, scroll to the line, one passed where  you want to start and click one of the above options.

Pre-position the mill and always use set next line on the last Z clearance move.  It will save you a ton of headaches and destroyed work pieces... no need to ask me how I know.
