If you read that HAAS control description of how their Run, stop, jog, continue works it seems to be pretty logical to me. It simply requires the OP to after he has jogged to wherever he need to jog back to a position CLOSE to where the pause happened initially and then hit a key and the machine then takes over jogging at 5% speed to the original position. This seems like a good idea and easier to get the machine to do. You will note that it does not allow for TLO changes which while important are not super critical in my view and apparently theirs too. The changing of an insert while typically not perfect should not change the offset that much and I guess it is understood that you would not want to do this on a critical dimension of a finish pass. It would sure be nice tho. Either way just having the ability to raise the millhead and turn the spindle and coolant on and off to take a quick measurement or inspect progress would be a big deal for me. Peace Pete Most of our controls have the ability to feed override the jog speed. There has been a move to get away from this in lcnc and this is an example why we still want the option. Heading back into a cut you can have control over that speed.
