Can anyone help with some G Code in the toolchange Macro please?
Mine doesnt move the turret out the way but needs to. Ideally Id like to move it to the Machine 0 position.
I found the original tool change macro that was used on my machine which contains these movement commands however the movement is not consistent (ie different directions depending on where it is, I'm not sure why).
Code "G01 x-10 F1300"
Code "G0 z-10"
I tried to do G53, cant do this in MachTurn.
I then tried G28 which works however it also tries to 'home' my turret rotation axis, which is not correct.
How do I simply tell the machine 'go home on the X and Z axis (only and ignore A Axis)'?
Thanks
