Title: Optional stop in screen
Post by: ftomazz on October 15, 2008, 01:56:54 PM

Gentlemen,

It is possible to have an optional stop on/off on the screen, instead of going to general config ?
Sometimes I need to stop the gcode file, others don't - for the same code (depends of the number of chips). In this way, the user can switch on/off during a program execution. Feedhold is a little bit scarry, and I had before ruined parts because of feedhold.
(Or can this be done in a different way ?)

Thank you

The main mach screen, tha one that comes with the program instalation has a button for turnin on and off the optional stop M1,

You can use that one, or if you are using a custom screen you can use the OEM button code is 177

hope that helps
Regards
Fernando
