i found some Information about your Controller, but anyway you will Need a prallel to parallel cabel,
parallel to usb will not work i think.

seams to be very simular.

VB and the development of wizards / Re: Auto Tool Zero Z-axis stop??

« on: May 31, 2018, 09:22:47 AM »

that's what i found in the gali pluging Manual:


The Galil PlugIn is capable of using a probe for various probing
functions. This is accomplished using the Galil high speed position
latch functions. Unfortunately, the latch inputs share general purpose
inputs on the Galil ICM. Galil axes A, B, C, and D use inputs 1, 2, 3,
and 4 and Galil axes E, F, G, and H use inputs 9, 10, 11, and 12 for the
latch inputs.
IMPORTANT!!!! A probe should be wired to ALL latch inputs for any
moving axis on your machine! For example, if you have a 3 axis mill
and you are using Galil axes A, B, and C to drive them, then the probe’s
output should be wired to inputs 1, 2, and 3. This is because the G31
probe command will move in all 3 dimensions. If you have 3 axis mill
with a 4th axis rotary driven from Galil axes A, B, C, and D, then the
probe’s output should be wired to inputs 1, 2, 3, and 4.
When setting up Mach for probing, it is imperative that the “Probe”
signal is enabled in “Ports and Pin” on the “Input Signals” tab and the
port and pin should be mapped to one of the Galil latch input pins. For
example, if your 3 axis mill uses Galil axes A, B, and C to drive Mach
axes X, Y, and Z, then the probe’s output signal should be wired to Galil
inputs 1, 2, and 3 and the Mach Probe signal should be enabled and
mapped to port 1, and one of pins 25, 26, or 27. Which pin is mapped
really does not matter since all of the inputs will be active upon a probe
hit.

you have to set in ports&pins->Inputs the Probe to the port and pin your probe is wired to.
than check in dignostic Screen for the digtize ledto go on, when yur probe is hit.

CS-Lab / Re: Problems wit G31/M31 and subs

i allways declare my Global var's so for Example:

Global X_SENS as Double
Global Y_SENS as Double
Global Z_SENS as Double

CS-Lab / Re: Problems wit G31/M31 and subs

both of them are using the same uservars for the probing result:

   X_SENS = GetVar(2000)   
   Y_SENS = GetVar(2001)   
   Z_SENS = GetVar(2002)

Code: [Select]

Dim CurrentFeed As Double
Dim CurrentAbsInc, CurrentGmode As Boolean

Sub Main()

CurrentFeed     = GetOemDRO(818) 'Get the current feedrate to return to later
CurrentAbsInc  = GetOemLED(48) 'Get the current G90/G91 state
CurrentGmode = GetOemDRO(819) 'Get the current G0/G1 state


code "G90"
code "F100"


ReturnG90G91State 'subroutine'


End Sub

Sub ReturnG90G91State()
If CurrentAbsInc = True Then 'if G91 was in effect before then return to it
Code "G90"
Else
Code "G91"
End If
If CurrentGMode = 0 Then 'if G0 was in effect before then return to it
Code "G0"
Else
Code "G1"
End If
Code "F" &CurrentFeed 'restore starting feed rate
End Sub

General Mach Discussion / Re: "Goto Zero" getting Soft Limits Error

« on: May 11, 2018, 11:33:44 AM »

Soft limits act like limit switches the only difference is, that they are defined in software (Mach3) and don’t need actual switches. It is recommended that you have homing switches properly setup before you configure the soft limits. The soft limits will only work if the machine is properly initialized (homing procedure is completed) and limits are defined.

Homing and Zeroing is a big differnce.
