General Mach Discussion / Program A axis to rotate as a Spindle
« on: June 10, 2011, 09:25:55 AM »
just added a 4 axis (" A axis" via a stepper motor to my system).
I want to turn it on so that it continues to rotate at a constant speed while Mach3 runs my program (g-code) instead of having to
Program each line with the "A *********.*********" code" to have the A axis spindle.
So how do I program the 4th axis to turn on at the beginning of my g-code file, then turn off at the end?
Any suggestions? Thanks.
