Fanuc 6TA programming

I recently picked up a Ikegai FX20N with a Fanuc 6Ta control (with no options, I was told by Fanuc service dept.) after quite a few mechanical repairs to get the machine in working order I am trying to get the machine programmed. It has about 12 programs stored in it's memory so I figured they have been running these and they should work as test programs. Problem is machine will read and excute the program till it comes to a G01 line then will just sit there with no alarm. Then I have to kill it zero return and restart control to get it to operate and respond to any comands only to do the same thing all over again if I attempt to run any program. I think it's a good machine and maybe I'm missing something here. I have experience with 6Tb controls I have 3 but this is quite different any advice will be apprecieated! thanks, Charles

In one of the previously stored programs it was like: N108 G99 GO1 X2.5 F060,BUT THIS DIDN'T WORK.IT READ IT TO THAT LINE BUT JUST STOPS. I GOT AN OPERATORS MANUAL FROM FANUC AND IT SAID G98 & G99 ARE FUNCTION CODES FOR G01 ONE IS FEED PER REV THE OTHER INCH PER MINUTE, I WAS MESSING AROUND WITH IT TODAY AND FOUND ALL THESE PROGRAMS RUN IN DRY RUN ALL THE WAY THRU BUT NOT IN REGULAR CYCLE START,

All problems seem to be solved a local repair man working in my building took a look at it and thinks it was a loose connector in the control, Now everything is working fine but thanks for all the good suggestions! Charlie
