    Need to start in the middle of my program

    im using a Haas TL-3B and im trying to start on a line thats in the middle of my G-Code. we also have a TL-3 and i can do it just fine on the same program. im wodering if theres a paramiter or setting thats prohibiting me from starting in the middle of my code. im attaching a txt file of the code. i want to start on line 536 where it says:

    (TOOL - 8 OFFSET - 8)
    (OD THREAD RIGHT INSERT - DT-60DEG-.015R)

    thanks!

    TJ

    You could simply delete all the motion operations from the start of the file to that point, "Save" the file under a new name, then run it. Be sure to keep your machine setup operators in there, like the speed settings, workpiece co-ordinates, etc.

    Yeah setting 36 is what your looking for, and just so you know there are canned cycles for what your doing. Unless you have cam software then it doesn't really matter.

    scroll down in edit mode to the point you wish to start, then press memory,
    If you have all the needed g54's and g50's, you should be able to start from there.
