I see.

witch motioncontroler areyou using?

Mach3 XHC MK4-IV  

ok, but anyhow it is courios, that you can run the M12 via MDI without any Problem,
and by enabling the Ignore M calls while loading it should not go into the macro.


i have two further ideas to test (without any idea of the real reason):

- rename the M12 to M312 for example

- put additional code into M12

If Not() IsLoading() Then

   ..your M12 code here

End If

Thomas

I copied M12 and renamed to M312... same results

I modified the M312/M12 file, it now reads as:

If Not() IsLoading() Then

DoButton( 24 )
DoButton( 23 )
DoButton( 22 )
DoButton( 25 )

DoOEMButton(133)
DoOEMButton(134)
DoOEMButton(135)

End If





When I type M312 into MDI, I get this error - Scripter Compile Error. In:M312.m1s

Hi,
I don't know VB but:

Not() IsLoading()

Doesn't look right to me.

Try:
 Not(IsLoading())

Craig

Try :

If Not IsLoading() Then
...

I rewrote the Macro with both Not(IsLoading()) and Not IsLoading(), Not IsLoading() returned the same error and Not(IsLoading()) ran the macro in MDI OK and caused the same loop when running as a part of my header

Hi,
Gerry is way more experienced in VB than I, if he suggests:
Not IsLoading() that is the correct syntax.

Craig

The code runs fine like this in MDI
If Not(IsLoading()) Then

DoButton( 24 )
DoButton( 23 )
DoButton( 22 )
DoButton( 25 )

DoOEMButton(133)
DoOEMButton(134)
DoOEMButton(135)

End If





Code returns the error   Scripter Compile Error. In:M312.m1s     when written like this:

If NotIsLoading() Then

DoButton( 24 )
DoButton( 23 )
DoButton( 22 )
DoButton( 25 )

DoOEMButton(133)
DoOEMButton(134)
DoOEMButton(135)

End If
