Mach3 + Galil

[pointcloud]

Ever get the sweats...

I got them and over looked a very important step...... setting the ratios.. It works like a charm now.........................................

When using galil plug in is Mach3 burning anything to galil card, or do all galil settings have to be entered thru terminal?

I do not believe Mach3 BURNS (BN) any commands to the Galil. It does have the ability to overright some commands that are BURNED in like the SERVO REVERSED setting in the plug in. It will not overright a slave command BURNED in. I did a (BN) command when Mach3 had my axis slaved and Mach 3 could not unslave it afterwards.

What would make the limit switches change?

If I home any of my axis now they x goes towards the switch and stops... Y will go a few inches, and Z will touch the switch but not move back to make it contact again?

When they trigger the switch my shuttle pro will not work until you reset???

Esc terminates script...

What to check?

This might be a bug in the Plug In. I have experienced this myself. It will always stop when it hits the home switch. Some times it backs up and homes properly other times not. When not, Mach would not let me home again until I exit and re-enter the program. The pause LED is lit during this no homing period also.

I can ESC and it will try again... In the block at the bottom it says script terminated......  Have not noticed a pause light....
