M07 – Low-Level (Mist) Coolant On
M08 – High-Level (Flood) Coolant On
M09 – Coolant Off
M08 – High-Level (Flood) Coolant On
M09 – Coolant Off
The actual implementation of these M-codes will be very machine dependent, but it will typically be very
simple. For instance, if the coolant on/off control were wired into Turbo PMAC’s Machine Output 7, and
the coolant high/low control were wired into Turbo PMAC’s Machine Output 8, the routines could simply
be:
simple. For instance, if the coolant on/off control were wired into Turbo PMAC’s Machine Output 7, and
the coolant high/low control were wired into Turbo PMAC’s Machine Output 8, the routines could simply
be:
N07000 M7=1
; Set Mach. Out. 7: Coolant On
M8=0
; Clear Mach. Out. 8: Low Level
RETURN
N08000 M7=1
N08000 M7=1
; Set Mach. Out. 7: Coolant On
M8=1
; Set Mach. Out. 8: High Level
RETURN
N09000 M7=0
N09000 M7=0
; Clear Mach. Out. 7: Coolant Off
RETURN
DWELL statements could be added before and/or after the setting of the outputs if it is desired to provide
some time for the change to occur.

M12 – Chip Conveyor On
M13 – Chip Conveyor Off

The implementation of these codes, though machine dependent, typically will be simple. For instance, if
the conveyor on/off line were wired into Machine Output 2, these routines could simply be:

; Clear Mach. Out. 2: Conveyor Off
RETURN
M30 – End of Program with Rewind
See M02 description. M30 will be equivalent to M02 in most systems but will return to the beginning of
the program.

Default Conditions
Typically, a machine running G-code style programs requires many default values and modes beyond
what PMAC sets automatically during its power-up/reset cycle. To set these defaults, it is best to use the
PLC 1 program, which will be the first thing executed after the automatic power-up/reset cycle
(effectively extending what is done in this cycle). The last line in this program should be DISABLE PLC
1, which prevents repeated execution of the program. A simple file for such a program could be:

; Maximum spindle RPM
P95=1000
; Max spindle accel. in RPM/sec
M70=0
