Live tooling spindle direction reversed

[Dave Loveridge]

My post keeps reversing my spindle direction on my live tools.

It does it on my drilling cycles only. Milling cycles are fine.

Post started with is mplfan.

 

Thanks for any help

Dave,

check the scase_tl_c2 variable in your post.

 

Post ships like this:

scase_tl_c2 11000012.000000000 #Top turret/Left spindle, Right Face cut

 

Should be:

scase_tl_c2 10000012.000000000 #Top turret/Left spindle, Right Face cut

 

That second digit flags whether to reverse spindle, the 1 meaning yes, so we set it to 0 and all should be well.

Thanks for the help, I did a search in the forum but could not come up with anything, anyway I knew one of you guys would know what it was.
