Title: Jogging on toolpath screen
Post by: rrc1962 on May 30, 2010, 09:11:02 PM

Hi all...

Is it possible to jog on the toolpath screen.  It seems to work on every screen but toolpath and settings.  I'd like jogging to be enabled on the toolpath screen as well.

Thanks.

The standard screenset does not have a Jog Control button on the Toolpath page for some reason. You could do one of two things, first is press the Tab key on your keyboard and use the flyout screen for jogging. Second is alter the screenset with Screen4 or MachScreen and add a Jog Control button (Jog On/Off) to the toolpath screen.

Thanks Hood....I had added a jog on/off button but I used system function "Jog Toggle" instead of OEM function code 103.  It's working now.

I always use the OEM codes in any screens I make as sometimes the dropdown list doesnt seem to tie in with what I think it should LOL

TKS Hood. It looks like a few of us had the same question.
