    acramatic 2100e Hawk 150 MDI position wrong but program position correct???

    I have a hawk 150 that has been idle for a month now. my father passed away and I inheriated his machine shop. I usually run the kia lathe but need to learn to set up the hawk.
    My father has a step by step set up guide for it but my issue is in mdi. When I tell the machine to go to X1.533 it will go way below the part instead of right above it and I don't know why. If the machine is in program mode and I tell it to go to X1.533 it will go right above the part?????? I'm trying to set the z zero but I'm unable to until I figure out why MDI mode is acting this way?

    The code he uses for it is

    T11 M6
    M2
    G92 S3000
    G0 X1.533
    G1 G96 G95 X -032 S500 F.006 M13
    G0 X1.533
    M0
    G92.1 Z0


    The instructions will say when to run each part of the program to set z zero.

    FetterSP,
    If you run this code in MDI does it work properly?
