Proper way to pause program for tool change
« on: November 13, 2007, 11:39:52 AM »
I have no automatic changer on my BOSS.
I tried M6 in the program, but the program just runs right past it.
M0 works, but I don't think this is the right way. 

What is the proper way to suspend program execution so I can
change tools?

Thank You,
Scott

SCOTT, go to config page and look at teh top left side and check a box that says    allow tool change/wait for cycle start

MACH  will then SEE the M6 (;-) TP
