acramatic 2100 program rewind problem

doug, M30

It sound as if you're running the program directly from the MDI screen. You must edit or save the program to the "programs" folder. Add a colon [ : ] in the first line, save it, and choose "Run this program"

It works on 3 A2100's here.

Make sure the program is resident in memory shouidm showm up in "O seach"

My apology to wolf's as well as to the cat family and where the f*ck is John S does anyone know ?

The greys beamed him up.

Ok.. I upload the prg to the machine. I select "run this program" and the prg comes up on the display. I hit cycle start,the prg runs. At the end the prg disappears from the display and it says no prg present. I have to go back and select "run this prg" every time I want to run it. The first line of the prg starts with a colon. I thought there might be a paramewter somewhere that controls this, but I can't find it.

Odd... You may be right that there's a "run once" or "repeat" parameter somewhere, but I never stumbled across it. I'll give it a look tomorrow.

Doug, I have some Cincy manuals, for 750, 850 & 950. What works in code for the previous Cincy mills will work in A2100's. Only the G92 setups are different but that is pretty minor. If you need them let me know.

Don't know if this has anything to to with your problem, but:

Under "System configuration" - "Security" - "Function locks" there's an option for setting the security/operator level for various configurations. There's a "Single Loop" and a "Auto Restart" option - on our machine both are set to "Operator" level.
