I can't do anything mechanical till the "aux on" is on. I can move though the control. Edit programs, load programs, put tools off sets in etc. But can't move anything. No tool changer,axis,spindle....

the "aux on" is what turns on the hyd. on. turn on control. after the screen comes on. hold "aux on" for 3-5 seconds and hyd. come on. till you get some hyd. pump maybe you could hook up a 3phase...

Making any progress?

It took me about about a month of playing with it in the evenings to get a useable program. But i never used or seen any kind of cad or cam software at all.

On mine you have to hold the aux on button for at least 3seconds to get the pump to turn on. Won't let you do anything like move the axis's till the aux is on.

my transformer says

prim. 208/230/460

just picked up an emco 340 with a siemens 810t control. Emco USA sent some stuff to reload into the control (tea1, tea2, pcp etc...). got that all loaded in and now when i start it up. it is in an...

no totally understood. had to watch the video that came with BC24 but i got it open. it isn't there. can i just type it in and resave the processer or is it more indepth than that?

checked the processer out and "work_coord" isn't anywhere to be seen in line 2. is there an easy way to get it in there?

not sure if i am doing something wrong or what. working with BC24 trying to learn how to use work offsets. never done this before.
i am using centroid m series post processer.

Thanks guys for the reply. I will make it happen tonight
