Hello everybody...
I am new to this forum, and i am from Denmark. (so sorry in advance for the spelling/grammatic errors )
I am currently employed as a cnc-operator where i have been working on 6 cnc lathes all with siemens c200 iso programming software.
But now my boss bought me an Okuma LC10 with OSP 5000 software and i am programmin this for the first time.
I have some issues programming the thread cycle for this, and was hoping there was somebody out there that could help med with this.
I need to make a standard 1/2" BSP thread. starting in Z-5.5 X20.955 and ending in Z-17.3 X20.955
Here is my program so far, if you are running Okuma, you would probably think this looks wrong, i dont really know, i have only programmed for Siemens before.

""Here is where the threadcycle should be""
My normal threadcycle is L97 and goes like this -
R20=1,8142 R21=20,955 R22=-5.5 R23=0 R24=-0.9071 R25=0 R26=0 R27=0 R28=-15 R29=0 R31=20.955 R32=-17.3
L97
But i dont know if the okuma can read this, it seems to me that it dont.
I hope you can help me.
