I have never used this feature before on a lathe. I am trying in MDI with no success.
Machines = Daewoo Puma 2 & 3 axis lathes / mill turns
Control = Fanuc 16T circa mid 1990's
I would like to bring preset tooling offsets to the control via the program using the G10 command.
I have tried in MDI using the following syntax
G10 P1000016 X0. Z6.475;
(Insert Drill Geometry offset)
When I go to the geometry screen, nothing has been changed, I am thinking there is a parameter that needs to be changed to enable me to write to the geometry register.
Also, is the following accurate
G10 P16 U-.03 W.01;
The assumtion here is to write in offset backoffs for first piece runs.
That example would not be for the drill example, but for an I.D. Boring bar.
Any help would help, thanks!
