Hello
Is there a way i can reset the feed rate over ride to 100% with g code at the start of every program?
I want to do this because if i rapid using the game pad to a certain position on the table and then run the program i often forget to reset feedrate.
Im plasma cutting.
thanks.

There is no Gcode to do that. You could create an Mcode to do it.
Normally the Feedrate override has nothing to do with jogging speed. I am not sure I understand the problem.
Just a thought (;-) TP

When I use the game pad to jog around the table the feedrate over ride shoots up and unless I reset it to 100% before i run a programme all the programmed feed rates are too high.
How can i set up an M code to reset the overide to 100%?

You can edit the cycle start button to execute the following VB script.
DoOEMButton(1014)
DoOEMButton(1000)

To make the Mcode open the VB editor from the main screen.
Type in the command
DoOemButton(1014)
Save the Code as M### (pick your number here) Say M900
Save it to the macro directory.
How I normally use that particlur call is to use it with the block delete charector that way I can turn it on and off in the program. Most times when running a new or copmplex program I start the program at 1/2 of the normal feedrate. Then IF all is well I up the feedrate to normal.
Hope that helps, (;-) TP
