Is there a wat to jog Z while in run program
We have just put the Acorn CNC Controller on a water jet and would like to know if there is any way to be able to jog Z axis while in a run program or to pause it and adjust it then continue the program. I am also wanting to know about how to adjust me off set down to about .020 and my tool offsets. Thanks for any help.

Re: Is there a wat to jog Z while in run program
right now no easy way.. we have it on the list of things to do. new feature will allow you to adjust Z height on the fly with Jog buttons or MPG..
for now.. this is the procedure... feed hold, cycle cancel, jog Z to new height, reset Z position using any one of the methods (part setup menu, mdi,etc), Press F4 Run, F2 Search (cnc12 will remember the line that you hit cycle cancel on, use that or type in new line number if you want to restart somewhere else), Cycle start to restart the job at the beginning of the line or arc you stopped at using the new Z height.
