Block Skip on Fanuc

[Brad-B1]

I have a Fanuc Series 31i Model A5 controller and would like to be able to turn the block skip off in my program. Does anyone have the code?

N45T6M6H6(1.00 BORE)
N50G0X0.Y0.
N55W1.0Z0
N60G87G95W-1.25R.2F.002Q.005S900M3M8
N65G80G94
N70M0
/N75GOTO50
N80M5M9
N85G53W-10.Z0.
N90 ??** Turn Off Block Skip **??
N95T76M6H7(.750 BORE)

Some MTBs insert M-Codes into their machines

This is all handled via the ladder

If you do not have these m-codes - ask the company you bought the machine from

I don't think most machines turn off your block delete switch from within a program. A different solution might be to use a variable at N75:
IF [#500EQ1]THEN GOTO50

and you can reset that in the program at N90 to:

#500=0

There are tons of other ways to address this, but I think that most machine suppliers aren't going to give you what you are looking for without $$$$

Yep... Most don't.. some do. The builder writes that in so that you can turn skip on/off ... Some even so that you can turn multi-block skip on/off (like /2, /3, /4, etc.)

No "standard" code though...

Block-skip is useful if Custom Macro B is not available on a particular machine. I believe, new programs need not use block-skip function; Custom Macro B gives more flexibility and convenience. In fact, block-skip function may, sometimes, cause confusion:
#1 = #2 / 2;
If block-skip switch #2 is ON, this may be interpreted as
#1 = #2
Hence, I usually program such codes as
#1 = [#2 / 2];
which is always interpreted as DIVISION.
