  • Request that the connected machine tool start the currently loaded G-code program.

  • Wait for the connected machine tool to be in one of the following states: Ready, Idle, Disconnected, Running, Estop.

  2. Select the type of command you wish to add using the radio buttons on the left of the screen.

Note: If no instances of PathPilot CNC applications are available in the Instance drop-down menu, use the Settings tab to establish a connection to your PathPilot machine tool (for more information, go to https://tormach.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ROBO/pages/2270265349).
