Mazak G54 to G59 issue

[romeo123400]

Hello fellow Mazakers, today I tried to call a G55 but my machine wont accept the code.

 

I have a 640t Nexus control.

 

Seems all it wants to run on is G54. When I tell T909 to G0 G55 X3.0 Z.1

it wants to default to G54 and the active codes stay at G54.

 

Whats up with that?

 

I guess I just not fully aware on how to use this control yet so any help would be appreciated.

try to add G90 in the line and see if it works.

Just to update this for other people

 

I finally got my G55 to G59 issue relolved.

 

My 640t control initially boots up by default with G53 and G54

 

By commanding G52 then the machine will allow G55 to G59 work offset commands.

 

When your in G53 the control ignores any G55 to G59 work offset request.
