We have a 2000 model Mini Mill. I wish the former boss had bought macro on this thing. :rolleyes5:

I've seen something of this nature covered here before, but can't seem to find it. I want to bump the M30 counters by 2 parts per cycle instead of just 1 per cycle. I have setting 118 M99 BUMPS M30 CNTRS: ON, but it will not count in either (M97) local sub or (M98) separate sub (O9001). It will count M99s as M30s if it is in continuous looping though. Not that it does me any good.

Any ideas?

M97 P1
M30
N1

M99

O0001
Program Body
M98 P9001

If your jsut wanting a part count what I have done in the past is use G10G91 and put .0001 in a offset every time the program runs just to get the part count at the end of the day
