I think it should refrain from cancelling tool offsets across the board, there seems to be no need for it whatsoever ? Like Uwe says it means you have to remember to manually MDI back to the correct tool offset, if you forget CRASH! It really is a problem for beginners.

The next one shot or program will call the right offset, it is only not so convenient if you want to use the tool manual....

Where can I find out more about the one hit buttons. Is there somewhere where I can download the macros that make these one hit functions work?

For information about one-SHOT buttons, see page 310 in the mill manual, or page 236 in the lathe manual.

we added them to the wizard for easier setup.
lathe VCP includes them in the default skin
for mill or router, its up to the user to add the button to the VCP if they want them etc..

Is there a new lathe manual? Page 236 of the 4.20 manual doesn't have any info on the one-shot buttons.

we are working on updated Mill and Lathe v5.0 operators manuals as i type this.

the One Shot buttons are just a Intercon Canned Cycle.
read up on the Intercon section of the manual to become familiar with the canned cycles.

and i think Uwe posted a one shot video.

12.3.95 on page 237 of the 4.20 lathe manual. Missed it by one whole page.

It is on page 236 of the 4.22 manual located in the cnct\manuals directory on your control, or by pressing F5 CAM/F2 Manual in CNC12.

Ahh. I see what you are saying - the table that shows the one-shot assignment to aux keys. I was expecting something else I guess.

Thank you!
