Hi guys,
I am building a MDF wood router.
I have Colombo spindle with ATC system on it.
Now in MACH3 how to set up the tools coordinates? Where to enter them?
And where to get macro to execute ATC (M6) to automate the process?
It shoud left the current tool in position, then take the new tool, go back and continue running.
Basically M6Start and M6Stop macros in MACH3 are empty.
But I cannot program them, cause have no idea of visual programming.
Can anyone help on this?

Please?
