Lynx 200 Lathe - Fanuc 21-T, how to machine lock??
The machine panel has the machine lock light, but it doesn't have a switch to enable the machine lock, any idea how to lock the machine so I can test programs?
Also how do I use the probe on this machine? Obviously it's got the probe up/down and also the tool measure button, I'm just not sure whether I'm meant to touch the probe with the tool and then press tool measure (which I don't think because that's no different than touching the face of the job and pressing measure)??
Thanks
Darc

Hi, wow, that was 11 years ago, how time flies, the second post gave me the answer I needed.
To lock the machine - Enter M17 in MDI mode and hit cycle start.
To unlock the machine - Enter M18 in MDI mode and hit cycle start.
Good luck with your machine!

We did use the graph simulation, but we got rid of that machine many years ago, it was a handy machine though.
