feed overide lockout?

[edward5]

Hi, I am trying to find a way to speed up the retract on a tap cycle. Thought about using go1 but could cause problems if someone overides the feed. I am fairly new to programming any ideas are appreciated Thanks.

This is how I made the machine ignore the overide on a Mitsubishi control.


#3004=3 (SHUT OFF OVERRIDE)

Tap cycle

#3004=0 (TO turn overide back ON)

What control do you have?

Most machine controllers use a parameter to enable retract speeds for tapping cycles. Your best bet to find out if you have that option and what parameter you need to change, I would contact the control manufacturer for your machine. They should be able to get an answer for you quickly...
