How to continue the G-Code from the point of stop?
It’s very easy to continue - you just need to press the “Start” button, if after stopping the machine did not turn off (the “On/Off” button in the program was not pressed and therefore the voltage was not removed from the motors). Moreover, if the tool was moved away from the stopping point, the system itself will return it to the continuation point according to the configured method of preparation move. The return will be performed directly to the stopping point if you have purchased the feature “Continuation of the G-Code from the middle of the trajectory (frame)”. Otherwise, the return is performed to the beginning of the selected path.
If after stopping the system was turned off, then for a more accurate return to the trajectory it is necessary to do a homing (see Why Do You Need to Do a Homing?). This will allow you to restore the working zero position provided that before starting the NC program a homing was also performed. Now you only need to select the desired text of the NC from one of the options:
- Double click on the trajectory section in the visualization block.
- Double click on the G-code line.
- One click and "Start From" button, the number of the selected line will appear in the field.
- By entering the line number in the "To Block" field and pressing the "Start From" button.
All that remains is to click “Start” after performing one of the suggested actions.
The worst case is if the machine was turned off and a homing was not performed before starting the program. Here all that remains is to manually try to check that the coordinates are correct and continue execution.
