    Programming tailstock advance on program osp 5000

    Hey

    I am making some parts that require tailstock so my program faces and centerdrill my part and I've manual reset and advanced the tailstock in MDI with M56 and restarted the program for now.

    I would like to advance the tailstock in the program but I had no luck.

    Tryed

    M05
    M157
    M56
    M03

    But the peogram stalls after the tailstock advance.

    Anyone can tell me how it's done ?

    Ps. My advance pedal dosent work aswell only the retract

    Do you have tailstock advance confirmation?

    Normally foot pedal should work unless some interlock is preventing it Do you get any alarm? Does tailstock try to advance or doesn’t even try?

    If you check your I/O is the solenoid advance signal activating?

    Any other machine options that may be preventing it like part catcher or touch setter?

    Best regards,
    Experience is what you get just after you needed it.

    I found out that the confirmation was not on so i adjusted it and not it works in auto and I can do it in the program. My advance pedal still dosent work it might be a lose connection. My retract works no problem

    I got have part catcher or tool setter on this lathe.

    Go into check data and look for input from foot switch. Should be next to retract input.

    It is not in the parameters but if you go to manual mode and extend a couple of times you should see a key that says check data. Push it and the page down until you see the EC Inputs. You will find it in there.
