POST QUESTION SPINDLE SPEED

[SBA]

I have a machine that will change gears but must have a stop spindle first. Same tool changes speed in middle of part. Post does not output a M05 spindle stop before changing speed. What in the post needs changed to force a spindle stop before it changes speed into new gear range. Machine does not need gear range commands but must stop spindle to change gears. Post is generic Okuma.

Thanks

SBA,

What kind of Okuma is it? Mill,Lathe??

What control?

I have both an OSP5020L for my latheand an OSP700M for my mill.

My mill does not need an M05 before gear change,but my lathe does.

jeff:

The machine is an Okuma MC4VA with a OSP5000M-G control.

Sorry it is a vertical mill

edit the post..where ever these is a spindle speed output at a line forcing the mo5..if it's already stopped it will have no effect..and if not..it will always stop.. simple enough
