Series 18i - T (Daewoo) Series 21i - T (Daewoo) Series 31i - Model A (Doosan) These are all lathes. I'm also looking for the parameter for the work offset. I don't want it to default to G54 when I hit reset either. What do the model letters signify? Does model A mean that it uses G code system A? Originally I thought the A stood for milling? The Doosan model A does have live tooling capabilities. Thanks in advance.

Could you go into more detail about the "proven and safe process" I need your help understanding. Let's say tool #1 is called up and tool offset #1 is active, you hit reset clearing out the tool offset then change tool and don't "allow the machine to follow the correct process" (I think you're saying, not starting the program in the correct position?) then you still run the risk of restarting with the wrong tool offset, resulting in a crash. The problem I have is that some of our machines reset the tool offset when pressing RESET and some don't. We've never crashed a machine with the tool offset still active but I've seen a crash because the RESET button reset the tool offset. A guy was touching off tools (no tool presetter), he called up his tool making the tool offset active then hit RESET cancelling out the offset. He then touched off the tool changing the tool geometry incorrectly, not realizing it. Fortunately he just broke off a tap. Our guys know to start at the beginning of the tool block in the program so that the tool and tool offset are called up every time. In the name of continuous improvement I'm just trying to make things more consistent/constant yet right. I appreciate your time and insight. P.S. - We just bought 2 brand new Nakamura AS-200L lathes and they don't reset the tool or work offset when you press the reset button.

Thanks Leon82. I'll check the parameter manual.

When I press reset it cancels out my tool offset on a FANUC controlled lathe (Daewoo). Does anyone know the parameter that prevents this from happening? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
