While I was in the middle of a tool check we lost power. Is there anyway to re-start G-Code at a certain line number?

Thank you
Donald

F4 Run/F2 Search, then enter the line number. This is explained in the manual located at F5 CAM/F2 Manual or in the CNCM/manual directory.

Yes. Load the G - Code. Goto F4 - Run, F2 - Search - Enter the Line # NXXXXX

Use NXXX if you are searching for a BLOCK number. Use just a number if you are searching for a specific line number. You can also search for tool changes as a restart point.

Code: Select all

F2 - Search Invoking this option will bring you to the “Search and Run” menu. This menu will allow you
to specify the program line, block number, or tool number at which execution of a program is to begin.
Program lines are numbered from the top of the file down with the first line numbered 1. To enter a block
number, place an ”N” in front of the number. To enter a tool number, place a ”T” in front of the number.
Pressing CYCLE START from here would start the program at the point you specified.
