Just in case it might be helpful, here is what I have done with my lathe turret using a custom comp: http://www.wallacecompany.com/cnc_lathe/HNC/emc2/ The comp needs to get a Park sensor feature as well as some time-outs added for each state, but it there is enough here to make my turret function. If you already know the Ladder language, that may be the way to go. Either way, you end up with HAL pins for invoking your tool changer and then signaling that your changer finished. Just connect these in your .hal file. -- Kirk Wallace http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ http://www.wallacecompany.com/E45/index.html California, USA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized environment for deploying applications.
