Mazak tailstock example in G code

[John@WMM]

Could someone show me an example program of how the g code is setup for tailstock in and out?

 

face

center drill

tailstock in

turn od

tailstock out

 

We just started using Mastercam in the lathe dept and we are lost on this one. Is there a parameter we need to set to use g code for this? Thanks
