Thanks.  Are those lines going into my gcode file or in something else?  I'm doing a lot of hunting regarding these OEM codes and they refer to VB scripting but I haven't found yet how that relates to the gcode file.

I do use a subroutine already and it returns to the main program when it is done.  Trouble is, the tool doesn't automatically return to where it was before the routine was called.

Ok.  I'll look into how to use OEM codes in gcode.  Will report back here when I figure it out and have working code.

Ah - thanks for the reply but I want to do it automatically in my code.   The routine is called many times and I'd have to hang around throughout the job to press that button.

No way to do this in code?

I'd like to be able to call a routine that moves the mill somewhere and then, when the routine is done, I'd like the mill to return to where it was before the routine was called.  Is that possible?

:)

I did search for "email" and "notify" before posting.  Saw a lot of stuff unrelated.  Will look some more then.

Any way I can get mach3 to run a program when it's done milling?  I can then make that program email me or something so I don't have to go keep checking on it.

Actually, I'm not so sure I'm running in opposite mode...  Check out the attached pic.

You can see that the machine thinks it's at 0,0 and it is.  If I turn my computer around 180degrees on the table, it would match the machine.

I'm just wondering if I can do that 180 degree turn on the display instead of physically or does 0,0 in Mach 3 always have to be bottom left.  If so, I guess I wont ever match the machine.  I dunno...

I suppose so.  Is the solution to reverse the x and y direction and re-setup the machine?  Was just wondering if there was a quick solution.
