Title: Mach Turn: soft limits and jog enable on diagnostics screen
Post by: jj83002 on January 14, 2011, 01:47:22 PM

I would love to be able to use soft limits in Mach3 Turn on my lathe.  Currently, it does not look like that is an option.  The Soft Limit button on the Tab-out screen does not seem to work.

Also, it would be convenient if jogging was available on the diagnostics screen for testing.  I know you can hit TAB and jog through that interface, but it would be nice if you could also jog with the keyboard keys without the Tab-out screen so you can see the full screen.   

Anyway, it's just a wish list.

Thanks,

Jim

Jim,

For soft limits have a look at this:

For jogging without using the tab consider using a diferent screen like this one:
