Title: A axis preview won't rotate in realtime ????
Post by: Tarak on January 14, 2007, 07:23:56 AM

I've noticed that A axis will not rotate in the preview window like it used to, it did rotate in realtime.
Now it only rotates at the end of a move.
So if I have....
G1 X100 A90
you can see X axis move along but A axis is stationary (DRO is moving though) until it finishes the move and then the preview jumps to A90
BTW this isn't on a machine yet I'm just making a screen.
I also tried the standard screen and it still did it, Is it a setting I've inadvertantly changed?

In the Config> Tool path settings check that you have the correct things selected. I posted a pic of my setting that work. Also put it in jog follow mode. Good luck

Thanks rcrabb, your right if I enable jog follow it works, any idea how to use it without jog follow?
