This code will return the head of a Mazak mill to the home 2 position without using G30. This can be very useful during probing.

Modify the line #592=#5223+[#591-.0315] to fit the particular machine.

In this example, the head is at home 2 (G30) when the Z machine position is -.0315. This example works in the G54 coordinate system. If you are using a different coordinate system change #5223 to the appropriate value. For example, G55 would use #5243, G56 #5263, G57 #5283, G58 #5303 and G59 #5323.


Code:
(POSITION HEAD TO HOME 2)
#590=#5223
#591=#[60000+#549]
#592=#5223+[#591-.0315]
G65P9810Z-#592F100.


Hope you all like and can use it!
