Karl,
I believe with A2100 controls, you access the different offsets with H words or D words. A bit different from G-Code I am used to. Do you have the programming manual? I found one somewhere else in this forum.

Unfortunately a G-Code cannot be used to active a 'Multi-Setup Offset' but it can be activated manually with the Pendant, or assigned to a Part Program.
Each of the 64 'Multi-Setup Offsets' has 32 'Fixture Offsets' that can be programmed using the 'H1' to 'H32' in a clearance movement and then deactivated in a clearance movement with the 'H0'.

i wanna make a program for cleaning my table, and have it on active setup 5 or 6.
can I make a sub program that I can call, in program that aim using?

Karl,

I would just call a Sub-Program up; but use MACHINE Coordinates, No Setup needs to be assigned.

G1/G0 G98.1 Moves X, Y and the Z-Spindle Face in Machine Coordinates and ignores Tool Lengths and any other Active Offsets.
It is Modal and must be programmed in each Motion Span / Motion Block.
M26 (Pseudo Tool Change) will rapid the Z-Axis Spindle Face to top of Stroke in Machine Coordinates.

*** UNLOAD-POSITION
:G70 G90; Inch Mode & Absolute
M26; Rapid Z-Axis to Top of Stroke with current tool in spindle
G0 G98.1 X([$HIGH_LIMIT(X)]/2) Y([$LOW_LIMIT(Y)]+.5) ; Rapids Table to X-Mid-Travel and Y.5" from the Low-Limit for unload position.
