Title: Lathe feed rate overide not working?
Post by: softselect on January 07, 2010, 03:33:34 PM

Hi everyone,
I have just revamped my "all in one" lathe screen and i found the feedrate override% values change in the DRO but during a cut it does not affect the feed rate
anyone else have the same problem?
my new all in one screen set can be found here

thanks
Friedrich

I think it works fine for me but I am not using the latest version of Mach, I will try and remember to make sure tomorrow.

Just tested here and FRO works fine with both G95 and G94 but I am using an older version on the lathe (021) and also the SmoothStepper. Maybe RC or Rich will be able to test for you with the parallel Port.
