Tool Check now stops the program <answered>

[CNCMaryland]

New weird occurrence where when hitting the tool check on my MPG it aborts the program. Just a week ago it would let you check the tool, and then restart where it stopped.

Anyone? This happens each and every time now using the tool check buttons.

Mary,
Post a little video. Since this load has not changed, my guess is a parameter somewhere got changed somehow.

I sat down to read through the manual and the behavior is as the manual states, I didn't realize this. However, what is odd, is that previously the machine did not act this way when hitting tool check.

Previously, it would stop motion, retract the Z, stop the spindle. You could then inspect the tool, change the tool, etc, and then just hit cycle start and it would backup a few lines, and start.

The issue after reading is that when hitting tool check, and it foes to the run screen menu, there is no option to resume job.

if you "F2" Load a g code program directly from a USB stick (or other drive other than c: ) that causes this issue.
so solution is easy... copy the g code program to c:\cncm\ncfiles and then load it from that location and tool check works as expected.

Bang!!! Thank you so so much. That is exactly what I had started doing versus having it on the hard drive. Excellent news for me, thank you again!!!

So in oder to check tool is act as check tool is, running the g code from c drive,, not from usb,, is that? Because i have try to use the tool check function before, and it stop the program,, then i stop using that function,,
