We just set up a used Mazak 8SP lathe and when trying to run a program we receive error 216 "Start Misoperation"
I have chosen existing programs and the simulation runs fine, however when you single block through the program, the turret will move to its proper X and Z position and rotates to the proper tool, however the spindle does not come on and the gives the alarm as listed above.
Attached are pictures of one program, created with Mazatrol and also the command screen. I have even created a basic edge facing program and still get the same alarm.
One side note, is the machine originally had the bar feeder hooked up, but we currently do not have it hooked up. Is there a parameter the needs to be turned off and that is causing the alarm?
Any help would be appreciated.
