I have recently purchased an okuma lb 15 lathe. I have pretty much figured out everything on the machine except the foot pedals for the chuck and tail stock. The machine is set up with a bar feeder. I can open and close the chuck thru mdi with an m83 m84 but nothing happens when I step on the pedal. Is there an m code to activate the foot pedals or what? Anyone have a list of m & g codes for this machine they can send me?

Thanks Duane

have you check if the machine is on machine lock?

I got it working now. There is a saftyl lock on the foot pedal. I was not putting my foot in far enough to release the safety. Tail stock still doesn't work but I have to fix a couple of broken wires. found some g & m codes on the net. Thanks

As regards to the foot pedals for the tailstock, they won't function unless you have the tailstock enabled in the parameters menu.
