Webcam while running Mach

[Cartierusm]

Not sure if this is the correct place but here it goes. Mach 3 is first off awesome. The only glitch, which really isn't a glitch, is that if I have Mach on and the machine, if I minimize Mach, let's say to open a cad program to do some work it will mess up the CNC. It reversed the Z axis when I unminimize Mach from the taskbar. Anyway, I figure that's normal as the computer is being dedicated to running a CNC machine.

SO the question I have is if I'm running a webcam as an edge finder, I got it off here from Zarul, will that affect Mach? Probably not as a lot of people are using them here. So if it doesn't affect Mach will using over my network affect Mach? I have my CNC in the garage and sometime run 3 hour programs and don't want to sit there so if I hook it up that way so I can watch the CNC from my office will that adversely affect Mach. Thanks.

I use remote desktop with no problem.

Based on the fact that ART is usinng a webcam with the Vidio Probing routine, I would doubt that just the use of a web cam should affect Mach in a negative way...

Perhaps Art or Brian will chime in.
