    Index lathe ABC with Sunmerik conroler Help

    HI, I have Index C-200 ABC speedline lathe with Sinumerik controler,
    My problem is that the Part catcher has been a bit slow to advance before the subpindle collet opens up to eject the piece out..
    that was controled by a cycle of some sort, I am no expert at this G coding, but I have managed to repalace the cycle with
    line by line G code and Added a dwell to allow time for advancing the part catcher,
    how ever becasue i did that the Belt conveyor where the parts fall into stoped moving..
    so I wonder what is the G code or M code or lines I need to add so that the Belt conveyor start moving forward again...
    thanks for your help.

    Hi Peace and calm. I'm away from home until Saturday. When I get home I will look thru my books. Been working on the west coast. My home is on the east coast.

    Sorry for the long time to reply. Forgot all about it.
    Try this from within channel 2.
    M1=61. This should start no1 conveyor.
    Or
    M1=0361. This should start n01 conveyor for 3 seconds
    Please have the machine in dry run and feedrates at Zero. Just to make sure all is ok.
    Please let me know if it works ok.
    You may have to play with the timers in the settings/mafu.
