Re: OAK lathe setup to use a tool touch off probe?
Well, I wired it up on AUX Probe 772 and it seems to work. I got a deal on an old Renishaw HPA probe arm and installed it. I had to make a bracket that tied into the headstock to make it stiff enough and it appears to be adequate. The bonus is no axis movement is allowed with the probe arm removed a...

Re: When upgrading to v5.24 on OAK lathe - CNC Router is installed.
Is there a way I can get a working copy of v5.24 to install on my two lathes?

When upgrading to v5.24 on OAK lathe - CNC Router is installed.
I have two CNC lathes with OAK boards and I tried updating each to v5.24 software. I am sure I selected installation of the lathe version of CNC12 (there were only selection boxes for lathe or mill and no selection box for router), but on both machines a cncm directory is created and the CNC Router ...

Re: How to add "Optional Stop" and "Block Skip" buttons to VCP?
Well, that's not the answer I was hoping for. I do think it would be a great feature to add some time in the future.

How to add "Optional Stop" and "Block Skip" buttons to VCP?
Is there an easy way to add an "Optional Stop" and "Block Skip" button to the VCP? I have edited the VCP to add the button images, but I don't see an easy way to make them work. I have looked through the PLC and have found how much code is there for the "Single Block" b...

PLC logic for Bijur single shot lube pump with pressure switch?
My lathe has a fairly standard Bijur brand, single shot lube pump and a lube pressure switch. The pump runs off a gear motor that is energized by PLC logic when running a program or in MDI mode. However, the lube pump does not have a lube level switch. I would like to edit the PLC to include logic t...

OAK lathe setup to use a tool touch off probe?
I would like to setup a tool touch off probe on my OAK controlled lathe. Is there a PDF document for this (typically wiring and parameters)? I've seen the TT-4 probe offered for lathes (https://shopcentroidcnc.com/shop/cnc-probes/oak-allin1dc-mpu11-lathe-tt-4-cnc-tool-touch-off/), but I've only foun...

Re: Wrong tool-offset calculation with Emcoturn 120 ( Rear Tool-Turret)
IDK, just to check and verify the offset didn't change...or make sure you replaced it with the same insert.

Re: Wrong tool-offset calculation with Emcoturn 120 ( Rear Tool-Turret)
OK, I get it...that makes a lot of sense for new tool setup. However, I would imagine someone has or will want to retrofit a machine with an automatic tool arm in the future and it would be nice to have a way to tell the control where the tool arm is (offset from spindle centerline). I could see som...
