Title: init.m1s
Post by: Bill_O on March 30, 2009, 08:59:44 AM

If I make a macro called "init.m1s", to ensure leds are turned off, does it run only when mach starts?

Hi Bill,

Surely if you add a screen button and assign the script there you can run it at any time by clicking on the button.

Bill,

   Yes, you can put the name of your macro in the "init" box, under general config you would name it for instance:
m999 or what ever. Then in that macro put all your SetUserLED(*********x,0) list in it.
It will ONLY run at Start up of Mach3.

Tweakie,
If it was me running the machine no problem. I have to make this as easy as possible for the operator. The less they have to do the less likely something will get forgotten or not done.
