Here is a macro I wrote to pickup a part from one side, jog to the other side and pick the opposing side up and store the mid-point in the selected work offset. It will also store the edge locations and the overall sizes in the G154P01, G154P03 and G14P3 offsets. Where is this useful? Anytime you need to pickup the mid-point of a machined or odd size part that would be difficult or time consuming to use the canned cycles. Now, I am by no means an expert in macros, but learning all the time. And, there are always many ways of writing a macro to do the same thing so, I would appreciate any constructive criticism or helpful information that would help me, and others out. -Mark, and Haas, HUGE Thank you for continuing to share and help your users out!

Once my classmate showed me that Auto probing macro, I’ve been flying through with tool setups. It makes setting tools up so, so much faster and enjoyable.
My personal favorite is this one: O9000 (Automatic Tool Breakage Detection) G65 P9023 A24. T#3026 H0.01 M99 Aliased as an M-Code. This is an automatic tool breakage detection using the current tool macro variable. This makes it a lot easier when using tool breakage detection in my CAM system. It allows for an M-code rather than having to manually type in all of the information after each tool I want checked.
Brandon Jmayoff yep. That’s the tolerance of the tool. So if the measured height is more than the H value different from the stored tool offset then the machine will alarm out.
Thanks so much! Can't wait to use this! And this is a pre set Haas macro? No preparations necessary other then calling it up! (Before I go and get 900 alarms and the z rapids into the table) haha
Brandon Jmayoff You’ll have to create it as program O9000. The you can alias it to an M-code. On a classic control it’s parameter 81 and on a NextGen control it’s under settings-alias codes. There’s a great video on the Haas TH-cam about aliasing M and G codes (creating custom G and M codes) The macro program is already in the machine control if you have the Renishaw probe system.
Used the Basic Macro Programming for preventing the running of Wrong Program !!! Benefit: No accident, No rejection !! Approach: i used one Custom variable to store the Program Number and mentioned the CONDITION in Main program that if the value stored in the Variable doesn't equal to the Program No then the Machine won't run and show the alarm "3001 Wrong Program".
Mark / HAAS; these tips are 5-Star, the #3026 making sure tool offset always matches the tool # in the spindle is BIG stuff. Amateur here moving from Mach3 CNC to the next level and the ‘HAAS culture’ is guiding the way. 👍👍💪💪
We have a VF6-TR40 (5-Axis) at work using the classic controller. We do a ton of one off parts so to facilitate flexibility in our programs, I wrote a macro that allows us to program the part top center of the part and then probe the center of the part on our machine. The macro figures out this part center location at any given A & B position which let's us put the parts in without indicating... EVER!! It functions the same as the G254 on the UMC machines. This works awesome for 3+2 programs. The operator is now free to hold it in whatever Jaws and/or fixtures their heart desires. Best thing is, once the program has been proven, it's proven for a rerun order of the same part. Edit: Not to brag but my macro can do one up on the UMC DWO. It allows me to offset both A and B axis and will compensate accordingly. The UMC only allows and compensates for the C(rotary) Axis but not B (tilt) axis.
#4120 can be treacherous, depending on timing. While it certainly is the last T code commanded, depending on timing of tool change and preselection read in shuttle type changers, #4120 can be the staged tool and not the spindle tool. Best to update #8400 to spindle cartridge then read #8402
This is a relatively simple Macro I made to line bolts in a plate on the 5th axis of a Haas EC-1600, the oles are put in in the first operation and then it's flipped over and the top and bottom holes are located and then the B axis is adjusted to line up the holes accurately so they can be conterbored from the front. It also finds the 3" centre bore and sets X and Y as well as Z being set to .085" below the measured surface. It's for a large T-slot plate.

Still not to the macro level. But LOL on the ...pause...Daniel Machado :-) Brilliant. I will come back to this later as my reference library...Thanks, Mark, excellent presentation as usual.
I wrote Marcos for milling a keyway an boring a hole with a endmill an also enlarging a hole from a diameter I use them all the time but I use Fanuc so I hope I can also use #3202 which would be amazing for me so radius compensation would be automatically used instead of puting a g41 d10 ; g40 in front of them

@@rishabhagarwal8245 if you have a Haas CNC machine with the Renishaw probing system, you can use the above program to do automatic tool breakage detection for whatever tool is in the spindle. Macro variable #3026 is the current tool number that’s in the spindle. H0.01 is a breakage tolerance of 0.010”. G65 P9023 is a macro sub-program call and A24 tells the sub program to go to a specific section of code.
@@DdgeluvinHic i have fanuc machine. And secondly i have been trying to make a program using macros for this case. Earlier my approach was to somehow link the spindle load with the macros and use it for tool breakage detection.
Here is a macro I use in almost all of my programs instead of a work offset. Lets say for example your work offset is X-10. Y-5. and Z-7. The start of the program would go like this; #5221=-10.(G54 X) #5222=-5. (G54 Y) #5223=-7. (G54 Z) (and if you have a 4th axis add a #5224 (G54 A) Then simply call up G54 as your work offset in the program. This allows you to keep your work offsets IN the program. This comes in real handy when switching to different parts that go in a certain spot on a fixture.
I recently made a program for a chip fan to blow off the parts so the operator doesn't have to. This was set up be ran as a sub routine so the setup guy only had to add a couple lines of code at the end of the program to call it. The reason I made this "Safety" program is so the setup guy doesn't have to always remember to adjust the work height of the fan program. The macro looks at the first 20 work offsets and sets G154 P98 Z value to the highest of them all, plus the #501 value. The fan is set to the top of a 3" block when in the closed position, and the value is stored in a G10 line. I should clarify that ALL workshift Z values are the difference between the 3" block and the top of each part. G154 P98 is set to X0.0 Y0.0 respectively. Also, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR MACHINE PROGRAMMING. If you use this make sure to single block it through carefully at min. rapid speeds.

Thank you! Cad cam is awesome, but maybe macros are better at least some areas. At age of 37 I still love to learn and I love my job more with every new thing I learn.
OK, you showed the procedure on setting your tool lengths using a macro variable #3026 but you did not explain the tool measure offset read out. So how about explaining on the older machines like a 2001 VF4B, how that the tool length measurement does not show the actual Z length from home position to the part like you would on Fanuc where you have to add the tool length measurement to your Z measurement, per example - your work coordinate G54 Z0 is the locating surface of your part in the vise. (the bottom of your part) You set your first tool off the Z0 location then you set all your other tools using Tool Measure Offset, all your other tools is shown as the difference from between your first tool length and all the other tools length that you touch off. Am I correct as Haas uses this feature as to how other machine operating systems don't use a feature like this? And am I correct that I understand how this Tool Measure Offset button system works?
you can choose between setting your tools at a fixed point or for auto compensating the difference of the Z value stored in your G54. You need to change a parameter to set how the Tool Measure Button will work.
Thanks for getting into macro programming. We just got WIPS installed on one machine, and we don't know how we ran without it. Our local HFO helped me out with this exact macro a few weeks ago so we can probe tooling groups. This machine is also robotically tended. My next hurdle is how to get the robot to load a new blank if a tool in a tooling group breaks.
Love the channel and have learned a ton of new tips over the years. Now I'm at a spot where I'm programming and running my Haas CNC machines and about ready to pull the trigger on getting a robot to load pallets in and out of the machine. But I cant find anywhere online that tells me how to TRULY run lights out with the HAAS and my Renishaw probe. so if a tool break detection finds a tool break it will automatically switch to the sister tool. If anyone has some tips I'd love to hear it. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for great tips. I was wondering is there a way in HAAS control to have more than 200 tool offsets? In our shop we like to have different tool number for every tool and 200 offsets don't seem to be a lot.
Fantastic comment. Thanks for posting this Max. Good to know. We can also have our Macro check if we are in graphics mode or not by checking how long things take. Our Renishaw probe macros make use of a very short dwell (250 milliseconds, G04 P250), and then they check how long the dwell really took (#3001). The control doesn’t dwell in graphics, so they use this information to make a logical decision as to whether the machine is in Graphics mode or not (IF our timer, based on #3001 takes less than 200 milliseconds, we are in Graphics). - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
@@haasautomation tank you very much, I've been wondering why the dwell's in renishaw macros. We recently buy renishaw systems for all of ours machines and we a trying to learn and write macros. Thank you very much again and please keep up
Mark, is there a complete list of Macros and System Variables available anywhere? Stuff that isn’t in the Programming Manual? Things like lights, air blast thru spindle, etc. I know they exist, just can’t seem to find a list of them.
A very simple program to use instead of G10 L13, especially it won't stay when you hit reset. O09xxx for example G300 R+- G300 R0 or only G300 will reset the offset changes #3003=1 G103 P1 IF [#18 EQ #0 OR 0] GOTO 1 #2500=#[#4111+2400]+#[#4111+2600]+#18 #2700=0 D100 GOTO2 N1 D#4111 N2 G103 #3003=0 M99
Is there a way on Haas to get macro variable which tells if a tool is in magazine or not? I have 30+1 capacity magazine on Haas vf2yt and my tools that are in magazine are usualy somethere between T1 and T200.
What if you are using a "core drill" i machine ceramic (unfortunately) and I need to know if I have drills that are a larger diameter then the tool post pedestal. So I have to offset them to be able to touch off with a tool post which works in okuma but I hate those machines I want to know how to do it on a normal HAAS 3-axis vertical Mill years 96'- 21' if possible
Is there a way we can program or have the machine automatically do tool break detection for every tool without needing to program that command on any CAM software? I do have the renishaw probe system.
Hey Mark, do a video if the C-Axis on the CL-1 and just a little more in depth video on the CL-1, PLEASE!! My CL-1 delivers later this month and would love to see more of it in action!
Speaking of the lovely classic control....I for one could really use a how-to for the VPS template file found on the NGC controllers. I have a metric ton of custom VQC programs which can be ran on my newer NGC machine, but I have no visuals to go with them. Maybe if there were examples somewhere...
Can anyone show me how to write a macro that will touch off G55 with probe in X and add 1.0" to the G55 setting shifting it 1.0" positive. I would also want to do the same for G154 P2
What are the A-numbers after P9023? I'm having trouble finding anything that explains what each number does. My understanding is that they are different types of probing cycles, and some are for the work probe and some are for the tool setter? I want to be able to measure the tool lengths and sometimes diameters after a tool change before finishing mating mold surfaces. But I don't want to use the wrong A-number
Hi, Nice tip. I am not really very familiar with NC code syntax, but if it is possible to dynamically get variable number basing on the active tool? I mean #[3200+#3026] (= variable number 3201, if the 1st tool is selected)
Hi Mark. Why is this (G43 H#3026) not in the tool change macros? After all, if you add it at the factory, then this line can be removed from the program. And the tool offset will be activated automatically when changing tools like Sinumerik or Haidenhein?
We could alias our own M-Code to do this, adding this type of code to our M06 tool change command, so it always loaded up the tool offset of the tool that was in the spindle. There’s been talk about this, back and forth, pros and cons, for years now. Thanks for the suggestion. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
What if you want to run a tool with a different offset on one feature of your part? You need to be able to program it to a specific offset number. They don't always match your tool number.
Cool Video and good info!!! I wish you guys could make the tool offset page able to be continuously scrolled through and back to the beginning like the classic control was able to do. very often to do find myself having to scroll from one side of the offset page to the other, and it was so much easier on the classic control by just hitting the left arrow once to get to the end of it, instead of right 12 times.
Mark, Haas should do a tip of the day on live tool lathe wear comp. I am trying to use this function on my ST-20Y with no success. I am now back at the computer to the update the tool diameter in CAM and then repost. Wear comp on the live tool lathes does not seem to work in the same fashion as it does on a mill.
Nelson - This is possible using the Renishaw Inspection Plus for Haas O9823 cycle. To use this cycle, we would need to run the Vector Calibration cycle first (not the standard probe calibration). Cycle 9823 allows us to probe a bore/boss with any 3 points. You can download the Inspection Plus manual from the Haas website. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
We have all of the variables listed in the Macro section of the manual, we just thought it would help to see the numbers on top of the Offset page where they are used. Thanks for the comment. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
Accessing the tool table data would be very helpful, but I cannot find the correlating macros. 3026 is also read only... I am trying to write a post in my CAM software to automatically populate the tool table. This is by far the most clunky part of setting up the machine. If you have a lot of tools to load, it can take a great deal of time to go through the tool table to see if the tool is even in the machine, but then to find a pocket that isn't overwriting an existing tool that is used in the program makes it even more slow. The entire process is extremely, and needlessly, slow. Nothing is more frustrating than already having all this information (in CAM) to be forced to turn around and have to enter it slowly and redundantly. I decided to write a program to do this for me, and the #3006 to prompt the operator to load the correlating tool, and automatically probe it if needed. This would be great except I can't seem to access (or more likely write to) the tool table data. Help please!
Galen, I am not exactly sure on what you are trying to do but, do you have/know the macro variables for the tool library? Heres the link www.haascnc.com/content/dam/haascnc/videos/bonus-content/ToolOffset.Macro.Vars.pdf So, you would want the posted program to run a macro to call up/run through the needed tools and if it is not in the machine it would ask the operator to put that tool in and probe it?
I include probing cycles into my part programs when I'm writing programs for tight tolerance production parts on my HAAS VF2SS. I have a part that I need to machine features on both the top side (G54 work offset) and the bottom side (G55 work offset). In both setups I'm nesting my part for repeatable clamping locations. My part is flat and rectangular (10.500" x 12.500" x 0.500") and I'm machining the four sides of my part and few holes that go all the way through which I could probe after flipping the part over to set my next work offset, but this feature is not located at X0, Y0 on my part. My question is, is there a way to let my Haas Intuitive Probing System find the center of one of the though holes, with a probing cycle like (G65 P9023 A1. D1. S55.) but automatically combine those X and Y values and manually input dimensions from the part model to set the correct G55 work offset before continuing the program?
William, We have a little technical issue with the website link for the cheat sheet. But it should be up before the end of the day, and we'll reply with the link here in the comments as well. Thanks
@@matthewwood6973 I want to create a program that sorts my tools in a certain order. I want to find out which tool is in a certain pocket to decide if it should be changed or not.

M01 Variable numbers will change depending on what work offset you need to write to. Hope someone finds this usefull
From my experience 90+% of shops doesn’t even use anything but read program, take WCO and probing, let alone tool management, macros, tool breakage… To me that is so sad 😢
Someone should write a small program or excel script to read Fusion tool library and output it to code that we can run to populate the tool offset table, then we can just probe them and go.
Want to do do an auto touch-off rotating tool probing but too lazy to bust out the tape measure and see how long the tool is? Fear not. Just set #102 = to the tool dia and press start. Works on whatever tool is in the spindle! Finds aprox tool length then uses that length and dia to set it rotating. % O09002 ( AUTO LENGTH + ROTATING ) #102= 0.75 ( EDIT DIA ) G103 P1 G65 P9995 A0.

It’s a great code. Once you start programming Macros, it seems like we use this variable, #3026 more and more. Thanks for the comment - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
Если Вы так любите читать комментарии к видео то вот вам вопрос почему с 2014 года в станках HAAS (ST)(VF) перестали устанавливать макросы. и почему они стали отдельной опцией при покупке станка? Мне необходимы макросы, но их нет!!!!! Да и в конечном итоге станки используются по всему миру а перевод мануала не поступает весте со станком? Почему приходится платить организациям за правильный перевод манула? за такие деньги которые стоит станок могли бы и потрудится с минимальным набором необходимого манула для той страны в которую отправляется станок!
Here is a macro I wrote to pickup a part from one side, jog to the other side and pick the opposing side up and store the mid-point in the selected work offset. It will also store the edge locations and the overall sizes in the G154P01, G154P03 and G14P3 offsets. Where is this useful? Anytime you need to pickup the mid-point of a machined or odd size part that would be difficult or time consuming to use the canned cycles. Now, I am by no means an expert in macros, but learning all the time. And, there are always many ways of writing a macro to do the same thing so, I would appreciate any constructive criticism or helpful information that would help me, and others out.

Once my classmate showed me that Auto probing macro, I’ve been flying through with tool setups. It makes setting tools up so, so much faster and enjoyable.
Love this stuff - keep it up!
Your my favorite TH-cam channel next to this one!
My personal favorite is this one:
O9000 (Automatic Tool Breakage Detection)
G65 P9023 A24. T#3026 H0.01
M99
Aliased as an M-Code.
This is an automatic tool breakage detection using the current tool macro variable. This makes it a lot easier when using tool breakage detection in my CAM system. It allows for an M-code rather than having to manually type in all of the information after each tool I want checked.
Is the H0.01 To compare difference In heights? From old to new ?
Brandon Jmayoff yep. That’s the tolerance of the tool. So if the measured height is more than the H value different from the stored tool offset then the machine will alarm out.
Thanks so much! Can't wait to use this! And this is a pre set Haas macro? No preparations necessary other then calling it up! (Before I go and get 900 alarms and the z rapids into the table) haha
Brandon Jmayoff You’ll have to create it as program O9000. The you can alias it to an M-code. On a classic control it’s parameter 81 and on a NextGen control it’s under settings-alias codes. There’s a great video on the Haas TH-cam about aliasing M and G codes (creating custom G and M codes) The macro program is already in the machine control if you have the Renishaw probe system.
Thanks! I'll try play around with it! Love to get into macro programming but I only have TH-cam as a source Haha
Used the Basic Macro Programming for preventing the running of Wrong Program !!!
Benefit: No accident, No rejection !!
Approach: i used one Custom variable to store the Program Number and mentioned the CONDITION in Main program that if the value stored in the Variable doesn't equal to the Program No then the Machine won't run and show the alarm "3001 Wrong Program".
after 40 years on lathes I'm now being dragged kicking and screaming onto mills, these videos are helping so much.
Mark / HAAS; these tips are 5-Star, the #3026 making sure tool offset always matches the tool # in the spindle is BIG stuff. Amateur here moving from Mach3 CNC to the next level and the ‘HAAS culture’ is guiding the way. 👍👍💪💪
We have a VF6-TR40 (5-Axis) at work using the classic controller. We do a ton of one off parts so to facilitate flexibility in our programs, I wrote a macro that allows us to program the part top center of the part and then probe the center of the part on our machine. The macro figures out this part center location at any given A & B position which let's us put the parts in without indicating... EVER!! It functions the same as the G254 on the UMC machines. This works awesome for 3+2 programs. The operator is now free to hold it in whatever Jaws and/or fixtures their heart desires. Best thing is, once the program has been proven, it's proven for a rerun order of the same part.
Edit: Not to brag but my macro can do one up on the UMC DWO. It allows me to offset both A and B axis and will compensate accordingly. The UMC only allows and compensates for the C(rotary) Axis but not B (tilt) axis.
Share!!!
I did the same for our vf6tr machines after we saw the feature on a umc. Now we have 1 program for all our 5 axis machines and use dwo.
Talking about tool offsets I would love to see a video on diameter offsets tool comp. All your videos are amazing and great teaching tools. Thank you!
Great topic. We’ll move it up on the list. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
Here is perhaps one of my most used macro programs.
Rectangular Pocket MACRO
G65 P4040 Z(depth) I(X dimension) J(Y dimension) Q(Step) R(Finish Corner Radius)
Note It picks up the tooling variable and uses the InSpindle variable to set the diameter offset.
2nd Note, since it uses absolute positioning, the center of the pocket must be at the work coordinance X0 Y0. I usually give the pocket location its own coordinance location.

For anyone wondering i
#4120 on fanuc is simular to #3206 on haas #4120 is last commanded T value
For moriseiki that will be #148
Matsuura #517
#4120 can be treacherous, depending on timing. While it certainly is the last T code commanded, depending on timing of tool change and preselection read in shuttle type changers, #4120 can be the staged tool and not the spindle tool.
Best to update #8400 to spindle cartridge then read #8402
This is a relatively simple Macro I made to line bolts in a plate on the 5th axis of a Haas EC-1600, the oles are put in in the first operation and then it's flipped over and the top and bottom holes are located and then the B axis is adjusted to line up the holes accurately so they can be conterbored from the front. It also finds the 3" centre bore and sets X and Y as well as Z being set to .085" below the measured surface. It's for a large T-slot plate.

Still not to the macro level. But LOL on the ...pause...Daniel Machado :-) Brilliant. I will come back to this later as my reference library...Thanks, Mark, excellent presentation as usual.
I wrote Marcos for milling a keyway an boring a hole with a endmill an also enlarging a hole from a diameter I use them all the time but I use Fanuc so I hope I can also use #3202 which would be amazing for me so radius compensation would be automatically used instead of puting a g41 d10 ; g40 in front of them

@@DdgeluvinHic can you please explain the program??? And the subprogram you wrote too?????
@@DdgeluvinHic i have been trying to decode it
@@rishabhagarwal8245 if you have a Haas CNC machine with the Renishaw probing system, you can use the above program to do automatic tool breakage detection for whatever tool is in the spindle. Macro variable #3026 is the current tool number that’s in the spindle. H0.01 is a breakage tolerance of 0.010”. G65 P9023 is a macro sub-program call and A24 tells the sub program to go to a specific section of code.
@@DdgeluvinHic i have fanuc machine. And secondly i have been trying to make a program using macros for this case.
Earlier my approach was to somehow link the spindle load with the macros and use it for tool breakage detection.
Here is a macro I use in almost all of my programs instead of a work offset. Lets say for example your work offset is X-10. Y-5. and Z-7.
The start of the program would go like this;
#5221=-10.(G54 X)
#5222=-5. (G54 Y)
#5223=-7. (G54 Z)
(and if you have a 4th axis add a #5224 (G54 A)
Then simply call up G54 as your work offset in the program. This allows you to keep your work offsets IN the program. This comes in real handy when switching to different parts that go in a certain spot on a fixture.
Is this different than just using G10?
Thank you for sharing your wonderful videos I watching from South Africa
I recently made a program for a chip fan to blow off the parts so the operator doesn't have to. This was set up be ran as a sub routine so the setup guy only had to add a couple lines of code at the end of the program to call it. The reason I made this "Safety" program is so the setup guy doesn't have to always remember to adjust the work height of the fan program.
The macro looks at the first 20 work offsets and sets G154 P98 Z value to the highest of them all, plus the #501 value. The fan is set to the top of a 3" block when in the closed position, and the value is stored in a G10 line.
I should clarify that ALL workshift Z values are the difference between the 3" block and the top of each part. G154 P98 is set to X0.0 Y0.0 respectively.
Also, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR MACHINE PROGRAMMING. If you use this make sure to single block it through carefully at min. rapid speeds.
Have fun and be safe.

what? you installed a Hampton Bay fan in your Haas VMC?
Actually this helped me so much ! Amazing i dont need to use my brain cells on this tommorow :D thank you :) i Hope you are happy and enjoyoing your life 🎉
Its not working properly :/ and i can't use G10 L10 with Z ONLY with R parameter :(
@@matejkuka797 What is it doing?
Thank you! Cad cam is awesome, but maybe macros are better at least some areas. At age of 37 I still love to learn and I love my job more with every new thing I learn.
OK, you showed the procedure on setting your tool lengths using a macro variable #3026 but you did not explain the tool measure offset read out.
So how about explaining on the older machines like a 2001 VF4B, how that the tool length measurement does not
show the actual Z length from home position to the part like you would on Fanuc where you have to add the tool length measurement to your Z measurement, per example - your work coordinate G54 Z0 is the locating surface of your part in the vise. (the bottom of your part)
You set your first tool off the Z0 location then you set all your other tools using Tool Measure Offset, all your other tools is shown as the difference from between your first tool length and all the other tools length that you touch off.
Am I correct as Haas uses this feature as to how other machine operating systems don't use a feature like this?
And am I correct that I understand how this Tool Measure Offset button system works?
you can choose between setting your tools at a fixed point or for auto compensating the difference of the Z value stored in your G54. You need to change a parameter to set how the Tool Measure Button will work.
Thanks for getting into macro programming. We just got WIPS installed on one machine, and we don't know how we ran without it. Our local HFO helped me out with this exact macro a few weeks ago so we can probe tooling groups. This machine is also robotically tended. My next hurdle is how to get the robot to load a new blank if a tool in a tooling group breaks.
Tom - That is amazing. The automation you’ll be able to create sounds very cool. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
Please do a video on G 141 3D cutter compensation. Thanks
Do you have a similar video for the lathe? Or are the Macro Variables the same?
Love the channel and have learned a ton of new tips over the years. Now I'm at a spot where I'm programming and running my Haas CNC machines and about ready to pull the trigger on getting a robot to load pallets in and out of the machine. But I cant find anywhere online that tells me how to TRULY run lights out with the HAAS and my Renishaw probe. so if a tool break detection finds a tool break it will automatically switch to the sister tool. If anyone has some tips I'd love to hear it. Thanks in advance.
For lathes, has to be ran after recalibrating the probe. (Not sure why our lathe doesn't do this automatically)

Is there a video on how to set tools using the old vqs?
Need help.
Thanks for great tips. I was wondering is there a way in HAAS control to have more than 200 tool offsets? In our shop we like to have different tool number for every tool and 200 offsets don't seem to be a lot.
Use it in graphics mode carefully. #3026 equals to the tool in spindle right now. Not tool that you've choosen in your program.
Fantastic comment. Thanks for posting this Max. Good to know. We can also have our Macro check if we are in graphics mode or not by checking how long things take. Our Renishaw probe macros make use of a very short dwell (250 milliseconds, G04 P250), and then they check how long the dwell really took (#3001). The control doesn’t dwell in graphics, so they use this information to make a logical decision as to whether the machine is in Graphics mode or not (IF our timer, based on #3001 takes less than 200 milliseconds, we are in Graphics). - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
@@haasautomation tank you very much, I've been wondering why the dwell's in renishaw macros. We recently buy renishaw systems for all of ours machines and we a trying to learn and write macros. Thank you very much again and please keep up
@@haasautomation I don't use graphics mode..but that's pretty sharp there sir.
Does Setting 15 (H and T Code Agreement) test against a macro variable in graphics?
any plans on doing a video about the new way to touch of tools in the lathe? you know when you go to edit/vps/probe to do that?
We were trouble shooting tool probe macros today. This is some of the info I'm actually looking for. Get on YT and BAM, new #tipoftheday Thanks!
Would this work with ATM costom groups of tools?
What are macro variables for the pocket table?
How can I use this when I am running ATM, and I want to check the tool before and after each use.
Mark, is there a complete list of Macros and System Variables available anywhere? Stuff that isn’t in the Programming Manual? Things like lights, air blast thru spindle, etc. I know they exist, just can’t seem to find a list of them.
A very simple program to use instead of G10 L13, especially it won't stay when you hit reset.
O09xxx
for example G300 R+-
G300 R0 or only G300 will reset the offset changes
#3003=1
G103 P1
IF [#18 EQ #0 OR 0] GOTO 1
#2500=#[#4111+2400]+#[#4111+2600]+#18
#2700=0
D100
GOTO2
N1 D#4111
N2 G103

Which code use to tool dai offset in Haas machine please tell me dear sir?
Is there a way on Haas to get macro variable which tells if a tool is in magazine or not? I have 30+1 capacity magazine on Haas vf2yt and my tools that are in magazine are usualy somethere between T1 and T200.
Hello. Please tell me the macro on the load limit of the active tool on the st30 machine with a milling function
What if you are using a "core drill" i machine ceramic (unfortunately) and I need to know if I have drills that are a larger diameter then the tool post pedestal. So I have to offset them to be able to touch off with a tool post which works in okuma but I hate those machines I want to know how to do it on a normal HAAS 3-axis vertical Mill years 96'- 21' if possible
Is there a way we can program or have the machine automatically do tool break detection for every tool without needing to program that command on any CAM software?
I do have the renishaw probe system.
Tool breakage program P9853 is too slow. What can be done to make it a bit faster? As always your help is appreciated.
I wish there was a video explaining how to set the tool offsets on the TL-1 Lathe with the next generation control. Could you do a video on that?
Hey Mark, do a video if the C-Axis on the CL-1 and just a little more in depth video on the CL-1, PLEASE!! My CL-1 delivers later this month and would love to see more of it in action!
Speaking of the lovely classic control....I for one could really use a how-to for the VPS template file found on the NGC controllers. I have a metric ton of custom VQC programs which can be ran on my newer NGC machine, but I have no visuals to go with them. Maybe if there were examples somewhere...
Can anyone show me how to write a macro that will touch off G55 with probe in X and add 1.0" to the G55 setting shifting it 1.0" positive. I would also want to do the same for G154 P2
What are the A-numbers after P9023? I'm having trouble finding anything that explains what each number does. My understanding is that they are different types of probing cycles, and some are for the work probe and some are for the tool setter? I want to be able to measure the tool lengths and sometimes diameters after a tool change before finishing mating mold surfaces. But I don't want to use the wrong A-number
i have same question :D did you find any answer on that ?
Is there any way to get active D offset of cutter compensation? Like for active Tool in spindle.
how do you make main program to call up plc program in cnc?
Hi,
Nice tip. I am not really very familiar with NC code syntax, but if it is possible to dynamically get variable number basing on the active tool? I mean
#[3200+#3026] (= variable number 3201, if the 1st tool is selected)
So, why do we only have #5401-#5500? There is 200 tools but we can only access 100 of them.
Hi Mark. Why is this (G43 H#3026) not in the tool change macros? After all, if you add it at the factory, then this line can be removed from the program. And the tool offset will be activated automatically when changing tools like Sinumerik or Haidenhein?
We could alias our own M-Code to do this, adding this type of code to our M06 tool change command, so it always loaded up the tool offset of the tool that was in the spindle. There’s been talk about this, back and forth, pros and cons, for years now. Thanks for the suggestion. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
What if you want to run a tool with a different offset on one feature of your part? You need to be able to program it to a specific offset number. They don't always match your tool number.
Can someone confirm that you can’t load “tool type - #500001 - #50200” ???
Cheat sheet says it’s read only and I get an alarm trying to use it
Cool Video and good info!!! I wish you guys could make the tool offset page able to be continuously scrolled through and back to the beginning like the classic control was able to do. very often to do find myself having to scroll from one side of the offset page to the other, and it was so much easier on the classic control by just hitting the left arrow once to get to the end of it, instead of right 12 times.
Sir kindly suggest me to learn macro programming
Mark, Haas should do a tip of the day on live tool lathe wear comp. I am trying to use this function on my ST-20Y with no success. I am now back at the computer to the update the tool diameter in CAM and then repost. Wear comp on the live tool lathes does not seem to work in the same fashion as it does on a mill.
How do i probe a partial radius to get the center of it?
Nelson - This is possible using the Renishaw Inspection Plus for Haas O9823 cycle. To use this cycle, we would need to run the Vector Calibration cycle first (not the standard probe calibration). Cycle 9823 allows us to probe a bore/boss with any 3 points. You can download the Inspection Plus manual from the Haas website. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
Thanks for your answer.
I’ll give it a try
Fantastic chart!! Thank you!
We have all of the variables listed in the Macro section of the manual, we just thought it would help to see the numbers on top of the Offset page where they are used. Thanks for the comment. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
Accessing the tool table data would be very helpful, but I cannot find the correlating macros. 3026 is also read only... I am trying to write a post in my CAM software to automatically populate the tool table. This is by far the most clunky part of setting up the machine. If you have a lot of tools to load, it can take a great deal of time to go through the tool table to see if the tool is even in the machine, but then to find a pocket that isn't overwriting an existing tool that is used in the program makes it even more slow. The entire process is extremely, and needlessly, slow. Nothing is more frustrating than already having all this information (in CAM) to be forced to turn around and have to enter it slowly and redundantly. I decided to write a program to do this for me, and the #3006 to prompt the operator to load the correlating tool, and automatically probe it if needed. This would be great except I can't seem to access (or more likely write to) the tool table data. Help please!
Galen, I am not exactly sure on what you are trying to do but, do you have/know the macro variables for the tool library? Heres the link www.haascnc.com/content/dam/haascnc/videos/bonus-content/ToolOffset.Macro.Vars.pdf
So, you would want the posted program to run a macro to call up/run through the needed tools and if it is not in the machine it would ask the operator to put that tool in and probe it?
very nice tip...tnx for sharing it🍻
Where I get all macro program
When I input # in my Haas it says bad code.....
How do you access the Bonus Content? I want the cheat sheet.
Jordan, We had a little hiccup getting the bonus content link uploaded. But here it is now: www.haascnc.com/video/Video-Bonus-Content.html Thanks
I include probing cycles into my part programs when I'm writing programs for tight tolerance production parts on my HAAS VF2SS. I have a part that I need to machine features on both the top side (G54 work offset) and the bottom side (G55 work offset). In both setups I'm nesting my part for repeatable clamping locations. My part is flat and rectangular (10.500" x 12.500" x 0.500") and I'm machining the four sides of my part and few holes that go all the way through which I could probe after flipping the part over to set my next work offset, but this feature is not located at X0, Y0 on my part. My question is, is there a way to let my Haas Intuitive Probing System find the center of one of the though holes, with a probing cycle like (G65 P9023 A1. D1. S55.) but automatically combine those X and Y values and manually input dimensions from the part model to set the correct G55 work offset before continuing the program?
Thanks for your information
Спасибо !
Буду очень рад , если есть пособие по макрос , например в виде PDF странички .
I don't see the cheat sheet linked anywhere?
William, We have a little technical issue with the website link for the cheat sheet. But it should be up before the end of the day, and we'll reply with the link here in the comments as well. Thanks
William, The link is operational now. Here it is: www.haascnc.com/video/Video-Bonus-Content.html
i would appreciate a macro variable for the tool on a specific pocket or at least the pocket number of a specific tool
Sounds like you would need to write an actual macro program for that, but I'm sure all the info is there. What exactly do you want it to do? Or know?
@@matthewwood6973 I want to create a program that sorts my tools in a certain order. I want to find out which tool is in a certain pocket to decide if it should be changed or not.
I had to write a custom macro to find the center of the part in the z axis and write that value to my work offset.
N1 G110 (RIGHT SIDE OP1 PLATE 1 Z)
G103 P1
#610= -18.2352 (writes position of fixture into variable #610)
G90 G00 A0.
X0.5 Y-5.5
G43 H40 Z0.7
G00 G90
G65 P9023 A9. S110.
#609= #7003 (writes probe value for the top of the part into variable #609)
#7003= [ #609 + #610 ] / 2 (calculates center and writes that value to my work offset)
G00 Z2.
M01
Variable numbers will change depending on what work offset you need to write to. Hope someone finds this usefull

looking for the links?
Nice video sit
From my experience 90+% of shops doesn’t even use anything but read program, take WCO and probing, let alone tool management, macros, tool breakage… To me that is so sad 😢
no link to macro sheet
Victor, We had a little hiccup getting the bonus content link uploaded. But here it is now: www.haascnc.com/video/Video-Bonus-Content.html Thanks
@@haasautomation Thank You sir.
Someone should write a small program or excel script to read Fusion tool library and output it to code that we can run to populate the tool offset table, then we can just probe them and go.
nice work
Wow Awesome!
Want to do do an auto touch-off rotating tool probing but too lazy to bust out the tape measure and see how long the tool is? Fear not. Just set #102 = to the tool dia and press start. Works on whatever tool is in the spindle! Finds aprox tool length then uses that length and dia to set it rotating.

Мне нужен перевод
Ха. Переменную #3026 использую более 10 лет.
It’s a great code. Once you start programming Macros, it seems like we use this variable, #3026 more and more. Thanks for the comment - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day
There is no Mark, only HAAS
Nice
The videos are great, but could have another translation
We’ve sent this out for translation now. Keep checking back, we’ll have them up soon. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day

Информативно.
Если Вы так любите читать комментарии к видео то вот вам вопрос почему с 2014 года в станках HAAS (ST)(VF) перестали устанавливать макросы. и почему они стали отдельной опцией при покупке станка? Мне необходимы макросы, но их нет!!!!! Да и в конечном итоге станки используются по всему миру а перевод мануала не поступает весте со станком? Почему приходится платить организациям за правильный перевод манула? за такие деньги которые стоит станок могли бы и потрудится с минимальным набором необходимого манула для той страны в которую отправляется станок!
