Hi, The project has been on hold for slightly more than a week but I managed to get it work, with one exception. Homing, forward jog and pre-homed Tn M6 works great. The only problem is that the combined homing and Tn M6 procedure makes it go one step too far now since it goes directly from homing to tool change without reversing in between. This is of course logical but it breaks the program logic that I added that makes the carousel go one step further during every tool change. So I have to add some functionality that will deduct that extra step if a Tn M6 command is issued and the turret isn't homed.
The solution isn't glodal yet, the code I've added will break the functionality for tool changers that doesn't require the extra step but my plan is to add the proper evaluations to fix this. There might also be a need to add an extra argument to the carousel in order to make it distinguish between one-way tool changers that locks in place without backing off the encoder (if that type exist), and this Emco-style my lathe is equipped with, that does back off the encoder during locking.
