When programming manual tapers (change at point) the post isnt catching it to post an M15 P1. The T is posted where required, but thats it. Everything works fine for all other tapers, but not manual.

Any ideas on how to capture a manual taper so I can get the M15 P1?

 

Thank you

[Guest]

mine doesnt capture it either adding taper with change at point.

Del,

 

Since I got the M15 info to add to the post from you, I was hoping you had the solution.

 

Hopefully someone has a way to do this - short of a misc. int.

I don't know if this will help but it's where I'd start...

 

Try the newest version of that post (included with X4) to see if it works...
