Hi,
I am extremely new to Mazak lathes. I have finally gotten our M5 working and running, but I cant figure out how to start in the middle of the program. I know that I can do it with a mazatrol program. Is it possible to start in the middle of a G-code program on the T32-2? I am needing to rerun my threading tool and absolutely cant figure this out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Robert.

Should be same syntax as the rest. To go to line N40 for example, you write:
GOTO40;

This is the restart procedure for T+ EIA programs. I can't find T32 but it should be close. N seq number should have all data to run ie spindle speed and direction coolant codes etc.Hope it helps.


To restart an EIA/ISO program:
[3] Input restart command data.
Ñ Input the intended restart sequence number using the following procedure:
1) Press the N SEQ-No. menu key.
2) Input the sequence number of the restart position.
Ò Input the block number of the restart position using the following procedure:
1) Press the B BLCK-No. menu key.
2) Input the block number of the restart position.
Ó If the sequence number that was input in item Ñ above is used repeatedly in more than one
position of that program, proceed as follows to specify which of those positions you wish to
restart from.
1) Press the L menu key.
2) Input the number that indicates which of the several sequence number positions you
wish to restart from.
Example:
If the program is constructed as follows:
N5 G01...
M98 P9001
M98 P9001
(A)
1st
Main program
N5 M××
2nd and 3rd Subprogram O9001
(B, C)
In this example, sequence number 5 is used in three different positions.
Therefore:
Input “1” to restart from position (A).
Input “2” to restart from position (B).
Input “3” to restart from position (C).

Thank you so much, I wasn't even aware of what the restart button was until you mentioned it. We are still working on getting our manuals for the machine. I will try that out. Again thank you.
