Hello,
I am just getting started with g-code so bare with me. I have a Haas Mini Mill that we have been running an HRT-210 on with a external controller. The code for the indexer to move is an M21 command. Am upgrading to a VF-3 with 4th axis pre-wire, so I should be able to control the 4th directly from the code. Correct? Now, since I don't have the technical ability at this point to re-post the programs (we contract a guy to post the code for us) I was hoping I could just edit the M21 commands to A axis commands.
So, as I understand it,
N117 M21 (STEP 2 A0)
would become
N117 G90 G00 A0 M11
N118 M10
Also, do I need to specify the M11 & M10 commands or does the air brake automatically disengage and reengage when the A axis in put in motion?
Thanks for the help with newbie stuff.
