General Mach Discussion / Re: Starter questions...

Thank you for your replies...
1) The problem is that when i use cv all the time when i draw circles these don't have smooth lines but rather have many many small steps.
2) Well, i will be as descriptive as i can...
We have the motor with the head for the tool change, and when you are in front of the machine you see the disc motor that is on the left of the router motor. This motor has the ability to change directions, and i mean by that that it can align to disc to cut along X or along Y. The point is how i can find the center of the cutting disc related to the router as some times disc will have to continue a job where the router was and vice versa, and of course how to make this be done automatically.
3) I probably did not explain it well, when i say the main console i do not mean the main mach3 screen, but the control panel that has the various switches on that control the machine.
4) Explored that folder and opened the files it included but did not find anything relevant to homing... Looked at Mac3/macros/Mach3Mill
5) ...
Regards,
Tom Stefanou.
