Help please.

Using the original DOS editing program on an Orac how can I tell the tool turret to rotate within a program ?

The tool should change if you program an M6 followed by the toolmumber. If the machine thinks it’s a manual tool changer then it will ask you to change tool. If set as an auto toolchanger then it will auto index.
