Hi Guys, I have been searching the lists for info on setting up an ATC under EMC2.
I have found some references but nothing concrete as to how it is achieved. This must be quite a common requirement, but can see nothing in the wikis etc about doing it. I have an 8 station revolving tool changer, powered by a larger stepper motor with a rachet and pawl arrangement to lock (go past pawl and reverse back against it to lock) I set this up simply in Mach, by writing a M6 macro, pity most other things in Mach are so flaky. Want to be able to code M6 T101 and have it turn until tool 1 is selected etc. The ATC is currently assigned to axis A, so I could just write GCode to achieve the same result, but would rather it responded properly to M6. Can anyone point me to some info or tell me the secret?! thanks ArcEye ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
