Show"N"Tell ( Your Machines) / Re: Coil Winder Questions

There are no units as such or rather they are just units and it will depend on whether your machine is set in metric or imperial native units, mine is metric so that is why there are only two decimal places in the length and wire size DROs, if you are Imperial then likely you would want to change that to 3 decimals.
The length is obviously the length of coil you are doing, so you just type that into the DRO then press enter. Wire size is the same. The Feed is the whatever feed you want and number of turns is as it says, the amount of turns you want on your coil.
Once you have these values entered just press the Load Code button and it will write the code for you.
If you wish to edit the layout etc then you need to use one of the screen editors, my preference is Screen4 but others prefer MachScreen.
