Hi, I have a bridgeport itl 400 cnc lathe. I'm still new to lathes, trying to make progress and sense of it all.
The issue at the moment is that the coolant codes do not actually turn the coolant on. I am able to turn the coolant on and off manually from the keypad. However, trying to do this in code form does nothing. There's also a "coolant auto" button but having that on doesn't do anything either.
I've run previous programs that were stored in the memory from the previous users to see if it would come on but still nothing.
Is there a parameter that could have been changed that is causing this?
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks
ps: The lathe has a Fanuc 21i- TA controller.
