Title: mach3 mill program simulator
Post by: rockyrude on December 19, 2018, 04:38:11 PM

I have a need to know how long any program will run. The program simulator under the tool path tab only runs part of the program. Is there a way to convince the simulator to include the entire program?

Unlicensed version will process only 500 lines of code.

I think the timer may reset when you encounter a tool change. Try running a temporary file using only one tool if you can. Or break the program up into 3 separate programs, one for each of 3 tools (or however many tools you need).
