    Smile Haas rotary setup

    Hi y'all, hope the holiday has been good for you.
    I have a Haas Hrt6a I need to run on a VF5.

    Having trouble entering the HRT6A number in settings mode, (4TH axis enable), When it is flashing 'NEW', I type in number, hit enter, get 'invalid number' message. Any hints? Does machine need a drive or configuration for 4th axis.
    Thanks everybody

    What "number" are you typing in?

    Unless they have changed things you should be scrolling through a list of all the Haas rotary tables (in the settings pages), then hitting write/enter to select it and enable it.

    This may sound stupid, but make sure the e-stop button is pushed in or it won't allow you to enable the axis.

    Good luck and happy new year!
