Forgive me if this question has been addressed. This is my first post and I'm anxious to get to an answer, and my basic search didn't turn up anything relating to my machine. Here's the specs:
Toyoda FV 45
Fanuc 11M Controller
21 Slot Rotary Tool Magazine (Numbered 0-20)
The issue I'm having is this: if I have a tool in the spindle (let's say tool 5) from a previous program (or from some MDI work prior to a program) and I load/DNC a program with that same tool, the machine will get to the tool change and just plain stop. Here's an example:
G91 G30 Z0
X0 Y0
T05
M06
G90 Z3.0
G1...
If start with any other tool in the spindle, the program would work perfectly, but if I had started with Tool 5 in the spindle, the machine gets to ">T05" and literally........ stops. No error, no message, and no way to continue.
At a minimum, I would like some kind of error... But I would prefer (as you can imagine) that the control recognizes that the selected tool is already in the spindle and continues with the program. I am assuming that there is a parameter somewhere that can be changed to accommodate this, but I can't find it in any manual. Thanks for your help!
