    Angry Milltronics centurion V program?

    Hi guys, I have a milltronics with a centurion V control, here is my problem, when I punch in a nice short program like just a drill hole, I have to press pause and resume and cycle start and flood make it go step by step, there is no error just stops after every command, also I noticed that a g54 command will make go bunkers, can any of you guys help please, the program will not run full auto. I am using bobcad/cam with fanuc o post processor. I also noticed the cancel star comes on...

    Could you include a copy of the code in a post?

    It will help to see the actual commands the control is trying to process.

    If you hit display error what is your following error wen the machine stops?
    The problem maybe the axis is not in position.

    Is the A axis connected and working?

    If not, the axis may be drifting and the control is waiting for it to get back to position.

    As Mark suggests, look at the following error display to check. You may also change the Following Error parameter to a 0 (zero) to force the control to not care if it drifts.

    check the following error by going to display (F6) Error (F4) this will disply the drive "following" error rate. If the following error does not fall back to below .005 then the control will wait untill it does before continueing on with the next programmed move. This could just be a drive adjustment.
    Call Miltronics tech support. they should help you with the procedure.
