Title: Deref All Axis On Reset Condition
Post by: Snipes44 on November 09, 2017, 09:18:47 PM

I have one last thing I'm trying to get setup on my machine. I want it do deref all axis when ever there is a reset condition. I thought that there was a check box on one of the config pages but I can't seem to find it. I'm using the latest version of Mach3.

I have done some google and forum searching but have not found the info that I need.

If there is not a checkbox I can select is there another way that I can get it do to this?

Thanks

Not specifically what you are looking for but there is a "De-Ref all Axes" button on the MDI screen below and to the left of the DRO's.

Ya I saw that but that is not automatic.

I'm getting my router back up and running after it had been in storage for a couple years and I had to redo the PC and I didn't have a backup of my old config files.

I could have sworn that I had this working on my old system, I just don't remember how.

Hi,
Config/General Config there is a check box 'Use Init String on ALL Resets' and below it is the initializing string. If you could put some code in the string
which effectively pushes the <De-Ref All> button, something like M100.

Where M100 has code to de-ref the axes, something like:
DoButton(*********)
