I want to have the rapid (G00) override separate from the federate (G01, etc) override. We use this on a first run when you want to cut at the programmed federate, and watch the rapid moves for collisions with the part, fixture or clamps. The procedure is one hand on the program stop button, one hand on the rapid override, one eye on the tool, one eye on the distance to go display. Every machine I have run has had a rapid override switch, usually 0, 25, 50 and 100% rapid speed. Are there 2 separate inputs into the motion controller that the slider is hooked to, or does the motion controller only have 1 feedrate override input? This may be getting deep into the EMC architecture, but I'm not shy. Thanks, Tony
