    On a TOYODA FA550-II we use a M90 in MDI.

    If we want to do it in the program we have to ...

    M2
    M90


    Machine will stop at the M2 and then when you hit the cycle start at the back of the machine near the pallet doors it will index the pallets.

    Yes the control is Fanuc 16M with 10 pallets,and of course needs a clamp code the problem is there, when I want clamp the B axis an interruption in the circuit diagram appears in a address (BROF.L) by the name of the direcction I think is the signal of a limit switch but doesn't exist in the machine

    Re: Pallet Change

    Do you follow the M60 with an M96? The M96 will call the program from the pallet number.
