CV / Exact Stop issue
« on: April 18, 2012, 11:14:29 PM »
Quick question-

My lathe runs better in exact stop mode, for whatever reason. I'm running a program now, and after running, the general config page reverts to CV mode. Set it to exact stop, run the program again, and it has again reverted to CV.

The only thing I'm doing different is using G32 to do some tapping. Does the G32 cycle automatically force Mach into CV?

Any idears?

Thanks!

Kevin

is there a G64 in your code?

If you attach the code and your xml I will see if I can replicate it.

Seems to stay in G61 here, what are your macros? Could they be doing the change?

The three macros at the beginning home the A, Z, X axes respectively. In MDI mode, none of the macros, including toolchange, nor the G32 cause Mach to switch to CV. So I don't know whats going on. Putting a few G61s in the part program seem to have fixed the problem anyways.
