Hi All,
Is there such a parameter that enables the 4th axis with Fanuc OM controller ?as I cant see any physical switch that turns on A axis
Also ,On the screen it doesn't show a A axis position ? can that be enabled as well ?

I have nearly googled myself to death......going round and round ;(

I bought a VMC with Fanuc Om that came with a rotary axis and the seller told me it was all set up for it.


Any help or walk throughs would be great and much appreciated , if anyone had some ideas.
Thanks

It seems the 4th axis is optional, need to buy from Fanuc company, you can check with Fanuc guys.
