I am ending my programs with M30. The spindle retracts and shuts off, but I keep getting an error message that says Spindle speed not up in time. So then I have to turn the drives back on and re-home the tool carousel. I want to be able to take the part out, put another on in and push start without having to go through all of this. It is a Bridgeport VMC 1000 running on a DX-32 system. Any suggestions??

Are you ending with an M05 before the M30?

[tharry]

No I haven't, but I'll give it a try. Just M05 by itself or something with it. I'm new to all this. Teaching myself and having a ball at it. I sure do appreciate all the help

the end of a program would be something like this....

G00 Z10.0 M9
M5
G91 G28 Z0
G91 G28 X0 Y0
G90
M30

g53 is the first external offest and barely ever used
G28 is first ref point and always will repeat
G30 is sec ref point and mostly used for tool and pallet change position and for a place to set unload positions from in an incremental move
