    RETRO FIT MACHINE W/ OLD FANUC CONTROL

    I know im not giving you guys much to work with but thought id ask anyways

    im having no luck in getting some old nak-something machine retro fit with some old fanuc control that doesnt even have show on the panel witch series it is
    from my experience with other controls i can get it homed out,find and switch programs, but other than that the mdi wont tool change, no spindle on
    and no program starting
    it has a memory and memory restart witch ive never seen
    i just cannot figure out y it will not let me do anything with the mdi or run a program, chuck closed light is on, does anyone know what a machine lock switch is for?
    can anyone offer their opinion or reccomendations?
    thanks in advance
    CHOCLATE? THIS IS DOODOO BABY!

    Take and Post a picture of the control. There will be someone form the Forum that will recognize what model it is. Having established the model of the control, help may be forthcoming.

    Regards,
