I'm looking to trigger my parts counter using a custom M code determined in parameter #6710, the M code in particular I'm trying to use is M54. I still want to leave M2/M30 for counting I just wanted to specify another M code for I can use for counting with parameter #6710.
My parameter settings are as follows.
#6700
Bit 0 = 0
Bit 1 = 0
#6710
Set to 54
After setting these parameters though, when I punch in M54 and try to run in MEM or MDI mode, the M54 just hangs. The parts counter increase +1 and the cycle time continues running but it just hangs on the M54 without completing. Wondering if anyone knows why this would be happening?
I tried a bunch of other unused M codes and they also hang to, regardless if I entered any of those numbers in parameter #6710 or not they simply hang there.
Thanks for any help.
