We have a Okuma Cadet turning center with a 5240 control on it.
I can not get the graph to put the material in the graph.
I was told to try putting

Clear
def Work
PS LC,[0,0],[1.25,2.0]
END
DRAW

In the beginning of my program and I would get a bar showing up in the
graph screen with a size of 1.25 dia by 2 inches long . This did not work.

Is there some where else to define the material stock on the control.
Is there a parameter I need to set???

Any help here

Not sure about the 5240 control.
Here's how I do it on my 5000L-G and 5020L controls. Length is first then diameter. For 2 inch long part by 1.25 inch diameter it would look like this:

DEF WORK
PS LC,[0,0],[20,12]
END
DRAW

Notice no decimals in the brackets. I don't know if the 5240 control works with decimals. Obviously the 12 isn't exact for 1.25 inch...it's up to you to use either 12 or 13 (1.2 or 1.3 inch).

Worked !!! Decimals seemed to be the problem.
