Who else uses or even knows about the quick to use ‘Automatic Chamfer’ feature on Milltronics Lathes?

A couple years ago at my first CNC Machining job which happened to be a production programmer role; I was thrown onto a Milltronics Lathe (ML-20 Circa 1999), and shown the ‘automatic chamfer’ feature which I used to get around to modify and/or hatch out quick simple programs to face, spot drill, drill and tap small shaft like varieties of parts like rollers for food processing/packaging conveyor machinery. These varieties were 75% percent of the jobs on that particular machine. And I ran the piss out of it. I found the automatic chamfer feature that I was shown to be incredibly helpful.

Processes about Automatic Chamfer on Milltronics Lathes that I remember vaguely:

[1.] Cutter compensation must be active to use ‘Automatic Chamfer’.

[2.] Cutter compensation must be active to use ‘Automatic Chamfer’.

[3] Cutter compensation must be active to use ‘Automatic Chamfer’.
