Title: Feedrate Overide
Post by: graver on February 14, 2009, 03:54:17 PM

I am hoping someone can tell me what setting is causing me problems. I am running Mach on two machines. On one machine I cannot get the feedrate override to go up. It will go down just fine. I have looked at every setting in the configuration screens but can't seem to find the problem. I noticed the problem first on an older version and it seems to be persistent into the latest version. I'm sure it's something in my xml file but I can't locate it. Thanks for any help.

Are you using a SmoothStepper?
Could you please attach the problem xml, suggest you rename it graver.xml so that the forum will accept it.

Yes I am using a smooth stepper. I don't have time right now to upload the file because I am on my way out the door. Does the smooth stepper plugin disable this function?
Thanks! Andy

OK that is your problem then, SmoothStepper will not allow greater than 100% FRO at this time, it is being worked on and hopefully soon the FRO will be handed back to Mach and that will allow greater than 100%
