Hi all,
I can't speak for how axis handles restart but with tkemc in is in
the editor window.
So.... bring up the editor and at the bottom of the editor window is
a button for restart.
Place your cursor to the left of the line you want to restart on ...
click on the restart button ...
save and load program and hit run. It skips thru the program to the
correct line and then starts executing.
It will not start the spindle for you unless you have explicit code
following the restart line.
This is being done from memory since I'm not in the shop but I think
I have it close enough so someone can make it work.
There is, or at least was a program in the dropbox that screams thru
code saving the current state of modal codes.
It will do 2500 lines of code in a few seconds. Sorry, I have no
memory of the name, if you need it you just have to go searching.
Good for very long programs but a pain otherwise.

At work, we number each section of the program that has each tool,
N1 for t1, N2, etc... then if we have a tool break or whatever we
go to that N and start from there. then it goes over the G43, 54,
M03, etc for that tool.

About the only way I've been able to bypass steps that have already
been done,
is to set 2 identical vars for the starting location at the top of the
program, with one set at 0.00 and the other commented out. Then if
I break a
bit or have some other problem that requires the resetting of the 0.00
points, I'll reset those and re-home them, then switch vars by
setting the
second of to the depth I had achieved, and comment out the 0.00
starter
setting. Works great for drilling big holes and such with a 1/4
end mill.
