CNC12 Lathe Emulator vs 5.06 free demo free vs.

Post by mr.c »

I am trying to write a Intercon Lathe program at my desktop in the house. I just discovered that the emulator won't let me change the tool approach from rear to front. My lathe is a Hardinge HLV-H that I have converted to CNC. It has front approach. Trying to set the tool table and it skips right over the approach direction. So ,at this point, the emulator is totally useless for my application. Is there fix for that?

No fix as you just need to correctly configure your machine.

From Main Menu F1 Setup --> F3 Parms and change parameter 001 from default 0 to 1 then F10 Save. This will provide Horizontal Front Mount
Hope this helps
