M9 when it should be M8

[Threept82]

Hi Guys (Lathe Guys mostly).

Can you tell me why I'm stupid? I make sure all my tools have coolant on before I code out. Worked fine. Now when I code out instead of m8 it puts m9 at the top of the tool. When its through, it puts a m9. So its turing off the coolant that it turned off in the first place. I played a little with machine define but nothing with coolant. (I Thought)

Any ideas?

My lathe seat did that too...does your coolant window have the normal on, off, ignore and then to the right before, with and after?

Threept82,

 

Good to see you're still around. What .MMD, .Control and post are you using? You could always call us or send me a .Z2G file and I could look it over for you. It doesn't sound like it would be too tough to fix. Was the post updated using Mcam X Updatepst Utility? Let me know.

Hi Pete.

I sent over those files to Steve yesterday but he didn't get back. I'll send them to you. It seems the files were an update.

Thanks.

Threept82,

 

Steve's been in CT the past couple of days. He's actually scheduled to make an appearance at your old place of employment on Wed. Guess they need some help after you left. I'll let you know if there's anything I can fix for you or if it requires more of Steve's expertise.

I sent everything to your email. Let me know if you got it. I'm sure what ever needs to be done you can take care of.
