Hi Jon. What you are telling me maybe is a part of what I'm seeing . I do believe that the same thing is happening also for an M66 call . I'm saying this becase the M1xx is called only during the first o<named> sub call and disabled during the other 3 calls. But what I can see is that the disk access is done during the whole NC program execution. Inside the subroutine there are M66 calls that trigger each axis movement and my feeling is that also this can cause a disk access. I don't know why this should happen , maybe I'm wrong but this is what I can see . In any case these custom M1xx function management (access to hard drive) it is strange too. I don't know what can be the latency (aka systematic delay) that this kind of management can produce. In my case the M1xx execution should be as fast as possible same as M66 (in my case M66 P0 L3 Q1).
