Title: Mach4 Build 2660 and HiCON MPG
Post by: Mauri on August 27, 2015, 10:03:39 PM
Hi,
The Mach4 build 2660 (fixed) now works correctly in JOG/MPG/DRO with HiCON Integra using .01mm increments.
If you have no backlash, then the screen DRO will display precise movements .01mm at a time both forward and backward.
If you have backlash set in config (Mach4/HiCON), then it will apply it and will display that value plus .01mm increments after the second click, so the screen may not show correctly to the two clicks, but if you have a dial indicator testing the movement it should move by those two clicks.
I.e.
.01
.01+bachlash (say.02)
Would equal .04mm on the screen DRO, but .02mm on the Dial Indicator.
At .001mm it is less accurate, but still usable.
Thank you Brian and Marc for the assistance in finally get this issue resolved.
Regards,
Mauri.

If you have more counts per unit on the axis motors, you can achieve even better mpg click resolution.
