Feature Requests / Feed override for all axis motion commands

« on: February 27, 2013, 02:26:52 PM »

The implemented feed override is not working, so far I found out, during axis referencing or G31 probing.
With a feed override to zero before stop, I get a "smooth" stop. There are reasons to stop, not estop, during a movement.
I know, during a G-Code file run it is possible to do a smooth stop with the "feed hold" button even if the time to stop is not predictable.

Hi Russ,

Which version of Mach do you use?

Sorry for the delayed answer.
Yes, it is a fully customized screen written with the .022 version.
The M6Start and M6End macros are in all versions identical.

I just installed version .067, but I got the same behavior. I did some more tests.
If I switch Mach to Lathe, with OEM buttton 131, the TOOLDESC label and the DRO 246 works correct. Tool selection with DRO 824.
If I switch back to Mill, the TOOLDESC label keeps the last description selected during Lathe mode. Tool selection with DRO 824
If I start Mach (Mill function) tool 0 is selected and so i see the "Empty" description.
Is here maybe a bug?

Thanks for checking.

I updated to the .066 version and now the TOOLDESC label shows always "Empty". I found in the changelog some information about the label change. I checked with the new DRO245 the offset. It shows the right one. The DRO 246 shows always the right tool but offset 00.
What is the current situation with the label?
