Hi all,
Anyone running a Okuma LB15 with OSP 5000L controller that can help with threading cycle gcode

I have managed to get threading code to run with the g33 or the G71 code

BUT !!!!
only with the "DRY RUN" switch on. Why could this be ?
Anyone ?

And of course i cant actually use it with the switch on as the feed rate is at rapids ..



both Gcodes below,

**********works only with " dry run " switch on **********

Thanks all for looking

Those of you that are following ....
Was a faulty spindle encoder

Funny how the controller didn't report an error ...but I guess that's why it stopped at the threading code.

Also explains why the dry run worked as its not looking for a sensor for feed.

Cheers everyone for your input .....lol
