Will the control accept "G92" or "G10" or lathe
equivalents codes. They will work. G92 resets zero in a described axis to where
relative to "where you are now" G10 or G52 sets a new coordinate from
home. (I think, it's been a while)

We have a Dainichi lathe with a
Fanuc control 21-T.
I will be programming 4
different parts at one time each with a bar pull, in other words when one part
is complete it gets parted off, then we send in the stock stop and pull out the
required length for the next piece and so on. Because each part has a different
length I would like to program each piece at "Z 0". Our control does not have
the option for fixture offsets (G54-G59), which would have
been easier.
Is there a solution to get each
piece to have a "Z 0"
Thank you
