    line out start point

    The machine is a Nexus 510 vertical mill w/ Matrix controller

    problem is, whenever programming a line out with multiple depth passes, and using a specific start point. The start point I want only works on the first depth pass, then all other depth passes revert to the point picked by the control.

    This is a big problem when a face mill tries to plunge into the material on the second pass. So far I've been duplicating the unit with the programmed start point and incrementing the depth of the cut each time.

    Experiment - try changing the values of parameter E1 and E2 in the TPC page attached to your line out unit.
