    How to use G54 thru G59

    I want to set up four parts in different locations. I have the Ultimax Dual Display console and my software has work offsets G54 to G59. Can someone give me examples on how to define and use the different offsets within code. Do I have to repeat each operation or can I machine one part completely and then move to the next. I have the Hurco manual but it's not really clear on how to do this. Can I refer to a subroutine rather than repeat all the code?

    You must be in g code mode. Go to part setup. Work offset softkey. G54 is the one set in part setup. 55-59 you set in this page.

    In the program move to a safe z then

    G0 G90 Z2.0
    G55 X0 Y0....

    You are now in the new workoffset.

    you should have in your g54 a decimal set also, going from g54.1 to g54.99 . I repeat the code for each offset if i decide to run single steps, but most of the time i will set up secondary and third and so on operations to parts, as to keep kicking out start to finish parts every push of a button.
