Yup, that is a great step by step set of directions. I think Steve’s method may be more responsive (sometimes there seems to be a bit of a delay). I wish there was a better description of how to use the PMC. I’m currently running a Hardinge CHNC with Mach 4 industrial. The support from NFS has been phenomenal. Been running for about a year now running production parts with no issues. Thank you everyone on the support team.

Just wanted to come back and say thanks. Mill ran a dozen parts and was flawless. Acted exactly as I wanted it to. Thank you for all your help.

I cannot find the instructions to implement the push button. Please let me know the steps and where to save the scripts. Is it a PLC scripts or signal script?
Thank You!

or you could not write that code and simply use the PMC editor.. read the input and generate a CYCLE START. But why do the easy..  :-X
any semblance of information posted to anything remotely  close to accuracy is merely coincidence. Use at you own discretion.. or play the lottery.. same odds
