i was playing with a second spindle on my mill. I noticed that the second spindle settings are set be default with a plain s and m code. Said another way s1000 m3 will turn on all spindles and set all of them to 1000rpm. You must specify the spindle with $ to set different independent settings.
I see from the docs that this is by design. I am curious about why this choice - it seems error prone and frankly annoying to program for. I would have though that(with multpile spindle defined) either you must always specify the spindle number or that a plain S code would default to spindle 0. But maybe I am missing a compelling reason.
