    Couple of Questions

    Just to clarify a few items.

    1. What is the code line for peck drilling in Mach 3 mill?
    2. G28 moves to home position. Is it possible to just move the Y axis to park?
    3. Calling a tool offset, e.g. T2M6 H02, Is this correct?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    G83

    You can make a custom button or M code to do whatever you want.

    With the G83 I have problems

    My code line is

    G83 X10 Y10 Z-10 R3 D1 F100.

    All the machine seems to do is go to Z3 then goes up and down 1mm never going to -10 in the Z
