The Matrix control on my Mazak (circa 2005/6) has a "manual

Most interestingly, it doesn't work with G-Code, just Mazatrol, on my
unit. I would expect the reason for this is again in t

I merely meant to point out that "commercially you can't feed hold in
canned cycles" would be too generalized, since it works for *some*
I wouldn't want an option to start/pause/anything mid cycle on a G76 ;)

I can see that it is easier in some canned cycles than others. Pause

Er, actually it does use run from here. For example if you were to use
all incremental code from the tool change onwards it would foul up in a
big way.

Hi Ian,
Thanks for your comments, and the link. Ornamental turning is fascinating.
Last year, somebody found a Holtzapffel lathe in a garage, here in Cornwall.
I had a chance to see it, when it went to the auction house. I wish I could
find one !
Cheers,
Andy.
