Acorn lathe conversational

Post by WINSTON »

I am trying to learn intercon for my lathe but I am having an issue I can't figure out .
On a turning cycle it will rapid to where the cut stops back cut to where the cut I thought would start then cut to where it should stop but not rapid back
To the starting point.
So my question is what have I entered wrong so that it rapids to the end of the cut and it does not rapid back to where the cut should start?

I would guess it has a problem with the 200 inch distance you have entered for "Return Feed Amount". Try changing that to zero.

in the future you can post your intercon part programs with your tech support request, that we can see the program and load it on our machines. the intercon programs you create are located in the Intercon directory c:\icn_lath and have the extension .lth
