Title: CV-Mode Auto Change?
Post by: Bush Flyer on May 29, 2015, 11:03:02 AM
I'm trying to set up CV control, the Stop CV on angles > 89 degrees it would go to Exact stop but angles less than 89 degrees it would keep the constant velocity. When I go to the  General Configuration screen I Tick the Stop CV on angles > and then try change the degrees from 0 to 89, but it will not change, I can highlight  the 0 in the box but cannot change it. Or have I been reading this all wrong and you have to manually change the Constant velocity to Exact stop when I want to cut 90 degree corners?
If this will not work and I'm way wrong is there a way to enable the CV mode button on the screen, that way I could cut two tool paths, one for right angles and then one with Constant velocity instead of having to go into General Configuration and change it. I find if I leave it on Exact stop it extends the cutting time.

Well it came to me last night and I found out what was wrong. Its now cutting square holes as long as the angle is more that 89 degrees and any angle of 89 degrees or less it cuts at a constant velocity. The fault turned out to be my key board for some reason the number lock is on even when its off, I tried a new key board Ticked the Stop CV angles typed in 89, and all is now working fine.
