Need Help!- Fagor Twin Spindle cnc programming

[oni666]

First of all, Hello everybody, this is my 1st post!! But been reading site for quite a while!!
Here's the deal...

I need to program a DMS router with twin spindles and a Fagor 8055M control.
Thing is I don't know what type of G Code would activate the second spindle (W axis) to act as the main spindle does (Z axis).
When I run a program for the Z axis, the W spindle begins to spin but it never moves up or down. I put G54 on Z axis and Put G54 on W axis as well but that would only lower the W axis (second spindle) to the same position as the main axis but won't follow the programmed path.
I have programmed the W axis to work by replacing al "Z" with "W" instances on the programmed G code, but I want to duplicate the programmed path on the main spindle so I can make 2 parts with the same set up (obviously on x axis there is a distance between Z and W axis).
Has anybody had an experience like this that would be kind enough to share his/her thoughts.
B.T.W I use mastercam for the programming part.
T.I.A.

If my memory serves me correctly, I believe G77 will slave w to z and G78 turns it off. Been awhile..... "G77 ZW" then toggle off with a G78.

Glad it worked for you, actually....glad I remembered correctly, been a few years since I programmed the Fagors. Nice to know some of those brain cells are still functioning!
