Back or front tool

Could you post your hal and ini files?

[edit]
Also please post the error report.

Unfortunately I cant do that Aciera. as I had to delete the changes I tried , in order to progress with other parts of my project.
I could try to replicate them by making another attempt ?

or (thinking aloud) maybe I could see if I could do a stepconfig for a lathe with Y axis in order to give me some clues on a lathe with X,Y,Z, but from memory stepconfig for a lathe only permits X and Z.

Maybe a simpler option would be if joekline9 were prepared to share those elements of his INI file which make this work for him

Right
So I seem to have managed to create a dummy y axis
Included the rotate command before the threading tool change and  clearly  the threading cut has gone to a front tool position on the screenshot  but restarting at line 134 bring up the errors shown

 

Clearly I need to do something to overcome this Y axis error.  Does this axis somehow need to be included in the homing process  and if so how?

Will post ini and hal seperately
 

sorry  - screenshot with line 146

 

Hal and Ini attached

 

 

So in order to setup XYZ axis you'll want to change your ini:

[KINS]
JOINTS = 3
KINEMATICS = trivkins coordinates=XYZ

[TRAJ]
COORDINATES = X Y Z
