How to move coordinate systems in Schaublin TMI-5

[fizzman]

Hi.

Usually I use Emco machines, but now I've purchased a used Schaublin. In my Emco's i use the command "TRANS" to move coordinate systems. Is there some way to the same thing in my Schaublin to move for example the z-axis?

Does a G92 work for that? In our thermwood routers at work, we set the tools with a 5" block and use a G92 Z5.0 to set the Z coordinate. I'm not sure if a G92 has to do the other axes at the same time, or if it can only do one at a time, though.

Ok. Thanks. I'll try and see if it works for me. I'll post a reply of how it goes. Once again, thank you.

The G92 command only moves the machine cordinates. What I'm looking for is to move the coordinates in G54. This was not clear the first time I asked, sorry. I know how to move the coordinates of G53-G59 in the machine, but what I'm looking for is a way to move the coordinates in an ISO-program.

Any ideas?
