Re: ATC Macro / PLC Help please <success!>

And here is the code we are using. Running this via MDI always 'resets' the distance to go to 0 for the A Axis. Running it in a program, does not, so the calcs do not remain consistent. M0 in the code, or in the macro, solves the issue but the machine will wait for cycle start on tool change ...
