Question for you guys.

We just got this Kia Turn 15 lathe with the Yasnac LX3 controller and I can't figure out how to restart a program somewhere mid program, I have to start all the way from the beginning. At least if I can start at a tool change or something it would be helpful. The poorly translated manual is almost useless and has been of no help, I have no problem doing anything else and I know how to do this on my other machines so if anyone can enlighten me on this, it would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your help.

The way I do this on a Mitsubishi is to do a line search in the main program window. The tricky part is making sure everything is in the correct state to run the program safely. So I make sure that everything is spelled out with every tool change so that spindle clamp speed, spindle speed, IPR/IPM, CSS/RPM is all there to get running as expected, otherwise some nasty surprises can occur.....like spindle running up to top speed in a hurry

I run A KIATURN15 with a Yasnac 2.
I don"t use program restart. I cursor down to the N number at the tool change I want to go to. I my case I home both axes first .

I agree with maz43. However, I'd put N2 on the G00G28U0W0 above the M01. That way you don't have to home the machine first. Just search for N2, and Cycle Start.

Yes, absolutely. I've ran into that situation on my other machines. Thanks

Thanks, i'm going to try that soon. Should be running parts on it in a couple hours.

Good input, thanks.

Turns out it was as simple as typing in my line, "N123" and pressing the cursor down arrow "↓" while in Memory mode (not edit). This brought the program straight to my requested line and I proceeded with cycle start.

Thanks guys.
