    Hello everybody

    I know that it’s possible to set the zero point over the parameter with older Fanuc controllers (#2501=#5021 set neutral point X axis)

    Now I would need the parameters for the C axis of the above named controller ( 5 axis with A and C axis)

    I would like to change the zero point of the C axis several times during a program run- as it would save a lot of programming time.
    I hope I expressed myself in a comprehensible manner and I am quite curious to find out if somebody can help me put!

    Kind regards

    I am not quite sure if that helps you out!

    Hello
    Thanks a lot for your help. Unfortunately I don’t know at all what that means =(
    Maybe you could explain it to me??

    Kind regards

    Hello

    I know setting/moving the zero point in the program with G10.
    e.g. G10 L2 P1 X.. Y.. Z.. C..
    or incremental G10 L2 P1 U.. V.. W.. H..
    P1=G54, P2=G55 and so on..

    So "G10 L2 P1 H90." turns the zero point of the C axis in G54 around +90 degrees.

    Are you working on a milling machine? I don’t know that at all... I mainly program incremental anyway but if you don’t want to move it permanently and only in the middle of the program then it’s easier to do it with G50.
