    Options code time

    When you turn on an option are the 200 hours your allotted actual run time hours or control on hours?

    You can turn them on and off...and they are calculated only when you use them (have them turned on)

    It is machine ON time so if you activate them and just leave the machine powered up your time is running away.
    An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.

    Thanks guys. If it is machine on time, then I'll just turn it off, since I don't use ridgid tapping that much. I usually thread mill, but I had a job where I need to form tap 80 holes.
