I’m trying to run a couple parts from a bar sticking out of the chuck since it’s larger than my spindle I cannot bar pull.
I’m not sure which is more appropriate Zero Shift, or Zero Offset. Why would you do one over the other?
Regardless I haven’t been able to figure it out reading multiple forum posts or my programming manual.
Below is a simple 3 part program calling a Sub program. In the example below I’m using VZOFZ which is offset. I’ve also tried VZOFSZ=VZOFSZ-.5 but that didn’t work. I’m all over the place with it. I get the same Alarm saying exceeding Z axis travel.
(3 parts from bar move Z-.5 before each)
G50S4200
N100 CALL O100
VZOFZ = -.5
N200 CALL O100
VZOFZ = -1.
N300 CALL O100

Thank you, Clayton
