    Question MAZAK Lathe Live Tooling G41 EIA

    I am not able to get cutter comp to work with the live tooling on a Mazak lathe. I am using EIA with a Mazatrol Matrix Nexus control. Do I need a D after the G41? If I do then where do I enter the tool diameter? This is the program I am running.

    The best way to learn is trial error.
