can't find the OEM code for the current feedrate (is there even a OEM for it? because I can choose feedrate in DRO setup, but I can't find a OEM  code...)

If I understand it right, I can manage to show the current feedrate divided by 40 on a button just with coding it via the VBScript?

Hi,
thanks for the answer.

Yes I think with Brain would it be possible but I guess I am to stupid 

My wish would be:

If Input 1 is not 0V the stepper motor (Port2 , A-axis) should start turning for a programmed feedrate till the Input on 0 again.

another question: is there a chance to code the DRO? means i would like to divide the displayed feedrate by 40 to show the frequency...?

I attached a screenshot of the interface I have so far...

Mach Screens / Individualization Mach 3

Hi guys,

i am absolutely new here and I would have some questions concerning Mach 3. I am not using the software for CNC applications; i just want to run a stepper motor on different speeds for different times. I can handle it with Mach 3 and now I started to 'play' with mach3screen (editor) which is for the simple things pretty easy but I would have one 'special' thing I would like to integrate.

First of all about my system: UC300 motion controller - BM01 breakoutboard - CW8060 V2 stepper driver - NEMA 23 4Nm stepper motor
Stepper driver is connected via Pin 2 and 3 (Bm01) and BM01 to Port 2 (UC300)

My 'wish': The motor should start when my other device (which is a medical device) starts to work (I an get a 5V signal out of this device). I connected it already to the BM01 (Pin 10) and configured it in the Input signal settings. I integrated a LED signal on the interfacec and as soon as the 5V are there the signal flashes (means on the electronic side are no problems (hope so...) but now my question is how can I create a button in Mach3Screen which give the command: as soon as the 5V are here > motor start on X speed for X time...?

Maybe someone could help me with this special application....

many many thanks...
