What kind of offsets are these that you are trying to save? G92 offsets have a procedure for saving and recalling. G54-59.3 are saved. On Tue, 2008-12-16 at 11:10 -0600, Len Shelton wrote: > Okay - the errors went away, but M60 only stops the program temporarily. I > sill have to hit the stop

Is there a code to just simply end a program? I have a scenario where I don't want to reset my offsets (M2 or M30) and I don't have a cycle start button (which makes sense with M60), but I want to jog the machine manually between runs. Axis keeps warning me that my program doesn't have a percent si
