General Mach Discussion / ShuttlePro Questions too

« on: December 14, 2006, 10:50:09 PM »

Hi,
Been working on building a CNC Router on and off for about 2 years now and finally got it running recently thanks to everything I've learned from these forums, hopefully I'll be able to give something back. Fortunately the only thing thats stumped me is the ShuttlePro.
The outer ring works great but the inner ring seems to "buffer up" in other words if I turn it very slowly nothing happens then if I turn it a little faster it keeps moving for a little bit after I stop turning it. "Jog Mode" and "Cycle Jog Step" don't have any effect on it at all. And if I turn on shuttle mode it doesn't do anything different and then I can't turn it off unless I "Reset".

Also I set one of the buttons for "To Go" and the numbers didn't look right then I noticed it's turning on and off the "Machine Coord's" instead of the To Go button.
I'm running Ver. 2.0.022 now but had this problem since I got the Shuttle around 2.0.014?.
Perhaps I'm missing something in the config?

Thanks, Paul

G-Code, CAD, and CAM discussions / Covnerting Points into a Surface

Hello All,
I am wondering what a good software would be to convert the "Point Cloud" generated from probing, into a usable surface.
Thanks in advance,
Paul

What software are you guys using to create a surface from the point clouds collected from digitizing?
