Title: FeedHold restart?
Post by: WoodyCam on March 11, 2007, 10:14:57 PM

Hi, Using Version 2.55 I notice that to restart from feedhold I have to press stop then start. Any one else notice this? Or am I doing something wrong?

This is OK except that the spindle stops and then does not re-start when I press start. So it is a little dangerous? Why can't it be like the older versions where, after feedhold, just pressing start get things going again? This is far more natural I think? Or is there a setting to adjust this I've missed?

Also, it still does not re-start correctly on arcs.  And, if you feed hold twice on an arc, it goes off on a completely different tangent! I think this was being worked on. Can you let us know how it's going?

Apart from this, Mach3 is working just great.

Thanks!

Richard.
