Hi,

I have a new lathe to me that has an 808D control. Yesterday I was setting up offsets and running a few simple programs when the controller and the tool changer seemed to get out of sync. The controller reads the program and the tool changer moves to the correct position but the controller then reads a different tool number on the display and uses that tools offsets. When I push the button on the controller to change to a different tool it moves and then displays the correct tool number again. Run a program and the problem reoccurs. Needless to say, that's not going to work well I did try and use the G code to cancel the last tools offset but no luck there. I had tested the machine before and it seemed to work fine.

Any thoughts?

Thank you.
