Hallo

Just program a "GOTO N..." , to the first line of your pgm , at end of your pgm.

Put your pgm in the Forum we will correct them.

Something else to consider... as you know there are 3 ways to do anything on an Okuma!

Take a look at this thread:


http://www.cnczone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=87913

It runs through how to use the schedule program and reasons why you may want to use it.

[cncboy1]

Oke ,the best way is how it is written in the thread.

M99 is Fanuc, won't work on the Okuma.

You can also do a counter with goto
G50sXXX
v1=1
n1 XXXXX

Program body

V1=V1+1
if [v1] lt(part count)GOTON1
m30

Syntac may be off a little, it's been 15 years.


Okuma spindle warm up program

G50sXXXX
S100M3
rpm=100
Nstrt
RPM=RPM+1
S=RPM
IF[RPM]LT 3500 GOTONSTRT
M30

And shedule program (sdf) which I like mostly. You can cut different parts from the same bar.

Hello. This is simple to do on an Okuma. You should have line numbers for your program i.e N10. At the end of the program on the next to last line write out GOTO N10 and press the write key(be sure to use the letter O for GOTO and the number 0 for the line number). Then write M02 and press write. This will take the program back to the first line and start over. This example of course is using N10 as the first line number. Use whatever Line number you are using in your program. You do not need to use a counter unless you are wanting to do a specific number of parts. Hope this helps.
