Hi all, I'm new here so sorry if this has been sorted before and I'm also quite new to programming.
I use a Quick turn nexus 200 II msy with a matrix nexus 2 control. I use mazatrol to program.
Right that's basics out the way, so the part in hand is 750 mm long I therefore machine the one end on the main spindle transfer along the bar in sections whilst turning the od then machine the other end on sub spindle. At the moment however I can't mill 3 holes along the length of the part with both spindles synced. I get error 257 illegal M code. I've tried just changing to one of the spindles and closing the other spindle with an M code. I've tired swapping to sub programs for the holes and nothing seems to let me do it. Hopefully you'll be able to help or tell me if it's a software issue that is an option I need switched on by mazak themselves.
Any information is appreciated sorry if this is simple but at the moment I'm a noob.
Many thanks,
Phil
