General Mach Discussion / Trigger Beep on Input State?
« on: April 19, 2013, 06:39:34 AM »
If anyone knows the inner workings of Mach3 well enough to shine some light on this seemingly easy task I'd be much appreciative. I made a simple prober that lights up an indicator on the Mach3 screen, however, I'm wondering if there's a way to trigger a beep as well.

This G-Code runs nice and smooth (this shows it's not a "lookahead" setting issue):
x0.002
x0.004
x0.006
x0.008
x0.01
... (all the way to x10)

This G-Code runs horrible, causes stuttering like it's decelerating to 0 each time F is changed:
x0.002 f20.002
x0.004 f20.004
x0.006 f20.006
x0.008 f20.008
x0.01 f20.01
... (all the way to x10)

And what's interesting is that even this code causes the same stutter just by having F set without the value even changing:
x0.002 f20
x0.004 f20
x0.006 f20
x0.008 f20
x0.01 f20
... (all the way to x10)


Is this an issue that can be resolved with modifying settings in the XML file? Would it require using the no-longer-used Tempest planner? or am I SOL until Mach4 comes out assuming that fixes it? Adaptive HSM G-Code will not run efficiently unless changes in feedrate are handled smoothly.
