G54.2 Motion without command

I am trying to simulate Dynamic Offsets on my Variaxis 630 5X II. I am using the Mazak Matrix control from the Vericut v7.0.3. library. How can I make it so that when the pickup is called (G54.2 P1) the machine doesn't move until a motion is called. For example, if I put a line:

G54.2 P1 X0. Y0. Z5.

the tool rapids to that position. If I only call the pick up (without x/y/z) the tool seems to be ok, unless the table is rotated, in which case the tool rapids to the distance from the pickup set in the G10 line.

I need to be able to call the pickup, and have the tool stay where it is until I tell it otherwise.

I'm sure this is just some setting that I am missing, but I would rather not just click around like mad and risk messing things up if I don't have to.

Thanks in advance!

Re: G54.2 Motion without command

I tested this with the mazatrol_matrix.ctl control from the library folder (version 7.0.3) and it
worked as expected (it did not move without the axes commands on the line).  Take a look at
the Start of Processing events...

  Configuration, Adv. Options..., Events tab, Start of Processing

look for

  DynamicWorkOffsetsWithMotion

and make sure the Override Value is set to 1

Best Regards,
Dave H.
