I mean that should do the turning correctly as well.

I tried their generic Siemens Turning one and couldn't get it to work. So I doubt if the Mill turn post will ether.

My trial session ran out and I am waiting on my company to make the purchase. So I can't try it out for a couple of weeks.

@vernonkleinsasser

What is the problem?

it seems to get hung up on drill cycles (m81) and home position.

 We have been busy getting @Anonymous a post that works for him.

We have one that seems to run now. Further testing will be needed but we are on the way.

Can't upload it on the IdeaStation so ping me if you are also interested.

Moving to "under review" in advance of separating out the post ideas from the general software requests. This was a batch process. So, this particular idea may still be archived.
