Reading over some past topics and problems with the Y axis thought I would add something to it.
If you go into privileged mode (1131) and memory area 01 you will find one program named 9000. This is the only program in that area.
This program is responsible for the Y axis during tool change and is called up from the plc
and should look like this:

G91G01Y-.0100
Y.0101
Y-0.001
%
If for any reason the control has to be re-initialized this will be lost and when you run a program it will hang after a tool change and not read the next block.
Most of the service folks are not aware of it so just giving a heads up.

I am sure this applies to the 640 as well (guessing)

Y movement

Hello,

Profound knowledge, thank you for the info, I will add this to the manual pile. We got a 2003 SQT100MSY a few months back, Fusion control, every time I think I am getting to know the machine I find os see somethng that tellm me I have a long way to go.
This must be something for Mazatrol, I pretty much do the same thing in E.I.A. but I think the Mazatrol manual recommends you do to improve the accuracy of the Y axis.
Any idea why it ends Y.001? Any idea what is using the program?

Should say, every time you index the turret in auto this program executes.
Even if your program calls Y zero it still runs in the background.
Today I watched the position display real close and you can see it run.
It's quick but you can see it.
