    If there is no one mcode to do it all, simple write a 8000 macro with all the mcodes you need and assign it to an mcode.

    If you can find an unused M-code, i.e. M51, put that value (51) in one of the parameters 6071 to 6079. Some of these may already be used by the MTB, so find one that doesn't have a number in it.

    Let's say 6077 is 0 or blank (I don't remember which it is). You set it to 51, and rename your O8000 to O9007.

    Now, when you command M51, it will execute O9007 and bring all 4 spindles down, then return to the main program.

    I don't understand. How does this relate to your original question??? You asked for an M-code to bring all spindles down on an 0i-MC...

    Do you know your CNC had PLC in side Fanuc controller or Heian use PLC out side of Fanuc controller. If Heian use PLC inside of controller you can find M-code by view ladder. If Heian use PLC out side of controller you must know which PLC was used by Heian and use special software of manufacture who made this PLC to load ladder and view it then you can find M-Code
