RE: Restarting

[Kurtis Martineau <klmartineau-at-shaw.ca>]

My machine is using EMC from the bdi209

Restarting EMC using the set run mark works by starting at the chosen line,
and even seems to read what mode it should be, but doesn't restart the
spindle or turn the coolant back on.

Does this work differently in the newer EMC version?

How can I restart the spindle and coolant when I restart at a specific line
without having to turn them on manually?
