Title: Can load be speeded up in my case?
Post by: Davek0974 on September 23, 2015, 03:51:18 AM

Probably something i have not set right but...

When I load code, it runs through each line on screen, then when i press my "set origin" button it re-runs the whole lot again.

This can take some time on a full sheet, am i doing something odd or is this normal behaviour for Mach3??



BTW my set origin button (i think) copies the current position to a G54, then zero's the DROs then regens the toolpath display, basically makes wherever i stick the torch my zero point.

Setup your Point of origin first THEN load your program. OR just create a new button that just zeros teh XYZ. I believe if you just zero the xyz then it will not regen.

That sounds good, thanks
