Guys, I am looking for a VERY gracious member that is willing to get me going on my new (used) HAAS TM2.
I am used to a different system (Milltronics) and am having trouble getting going.
Backround: I have been running a Milltronics MB18 for a few years now and have had great luck with it. In order to run all of my potential parts I needed to bump up to a 40" travel machine. In additional I get the benefit of moving up to 40 taper, toolchanger and being able to run off of my single phase power.
So I have put power to my machine and am able to home everything, jog the X, Y and Z and do toolchanges. I have having trouble after that. I have entered the MDI section to give a spindle on command (M03) and cannot figure out how to execute it. I type "S2000 M03" and hit cycle start and get the attached screen. Some sort of Safety Switch??? This machine obviously has not doors so I don't know where to go after that. The same thing comes up if I try to MDI a toolchange.
Also, it is possible that the HAAS version of conversational programming (quick code) is not on my machine? I could not find it for anything on the control. I just wanted to program a simple drill cycle and could not figure out how without typing in the G-Code. Is this something I could by after the fact?
I am grateful for you help,
