Thank you in advance

Hi Roberto,

assign Funktion "Jog mode Incr LED" (OEM-Code = 15). If you look at page 50 of the standard screen set you'll see a sample.

Make it easy by adding the Jog Mode button so you can toggle between Cont, Step, MPG.

Otherwise, have a check of the button / led / dro list if  there is a button to just select step.

Hi,

I meant the led at 1.00 - 0.10 - 0.01.
By pressing the button directly without making a loop.

Hmm.....
I didn't find a LED which is associated with any of the Jog Increment positions for 1 to 10.
May be able to add some scripting which would turn the led on/off.
Can't be of much help on the scripting.

I added 2 samples to my sample list. One of it shows how to set the jog width using a button. You can download it from my website under:
Program Downloads -> Script samples.

Hi,

I'll try to do it, but I do not think I can do it, I do not know anything about scripts.

Thanks
Roberto

if you download the samples from my website, doublecliick that file. This will put the sample files into the mach directory. Copy and paste the sample screenset to your screenset page and adapt it to your needs.

HI,

Your script and OK
The problem is that it has to perform 3 functions.
Press button 1.00
1) Performs the function of the key( Slect step value1)
2) LED ON
3) LED OFF button 0.10  or 0.01

Thanks

Hi,

I don't understand what you are trying to say. Could you please put your question on other words.

Klaus1311,

What I get is that rather than toggling between the the different steps which are defined in config he just wants to set the jogging incremental distance to the value that is on the button and the led lights up to indicate the selection.

Three button's for three different steps........... 

Why wanted dosen't need to make sense to anyone.
Seems like a waste of time, but that's just my opinion............

Correct me if I am wrong.

RICH ,

You have understood well.
Three buttons for three different increments, as in Tormach  PathPilot.

Hi Rich,

I thought the task was selecting one increment out of 5 (specified in config) by hitting a button and light up the according LED. OK, however, thats what my sample is doing.

To start:
Just add the following script to each of your buttons:

Your BUTTON LABELED 1.00
SetDRO (28,1.00)


Your BUTTON LABELED 0.10
SetDRO (28,0.10)

Your BUTTON LABELED 0.01
SetDRO (28,0.01)

When you click the button the Jog INC DRO will change to the values in the script.
Now where did you get the LED's from? What type?
You would simply add additional script to each of the button's to turn the pressed button LED on and the other two off.

Just one way of doing it................

Hi RICH,

Now where did you get the LED's from? What type?
Image with Photoshop
Button 1.00 with Image Button ( Image Trasparent and function Select Step Value 3)
Button 0.10 with Image Button ( Image Trasparent and function Select Step Value 2)
Button 0.01 with Image Button ( Image Trasparent and function Select Step Value 1)
Led with Photoshop image (Function ??? )

I would like to press it directly without going lap (1.00-0.10-0.01-1.00-0.10-0.01 etc. etc.)

Hi,

I solved this script.

If DoOEMButton (266) Then
End If

If (GetUserLED(1121) = 0) Then
   SetUserLED(1121,1)
   SetUserLED(1122,0)
   SetUserLED(1120,0)
End If

Klaus1311 Thank you for your wonderful work.
