General Mach Discussion / Re: Anyone use "Import DFX's" before?

« on: August 08, 2009, 12:40:06 AM »

Hi, Ymsio

I think it's built into mach3.184.000, I used ver 184 to generate pic below in ver MachR3.042.029 and it loaded.

Have you tried LazyCam, You should give it a try.

Chip

Hi, Chip.
I have tried LazyCam b4, but I prefer to use the "Import DFX's" function.
I will say that function is easier than lazycam. any idea to ectract this function for new version?
Thanks.

I used Mach3 R1.84.000 before, "Import DFX's" is a really good function to me.
Could I take out this function from older mach3 to new version mach3?


Thanks.

Probably because you're running a relatively high feedrate, with a relatively low acceleration.  When running in constant velocity mode, something's gotta give, and it's sharp corners.  Either increase acceleration, or decrease feedrate.  I believe using exact stop mode will also cure that, but at a cost....

Hi HimyKabibble,
Firstly, thanks for reply.
of cos, I wish to increase feedrate. Otherwise I have to spend more than 6 hours to complete a workpiece(due to thousand lines to run)!
So, as you mentioned, to increase acceleration in mach3? or do I need to adjust servo motor's parameter too?

Thanks again.

Hi,

I have a problem is that when I tried to increase feedrate to 2000, the angles will become radians...



each x,y&z uses same size AC servo & ball-screw.

is any setting wrong?

Thanks.

General Mach Discussion / Re: write wizard syntax error.

Open Mach, go to the tab at the top, operator, vb script editor. I think this is what you need.

Brett

Yes, Brett. I know how to do that. By the way, what file I need to open and edit in VB script editor?? coz I don't see any script file in the wirte wizard folder, ie C:\Mach3\Addons\Write. I am not too sure that I can edit a .set (screen) file in the VB script editor... I had opened the write.set file by using the mach3 screen editor, all the buttons code had been modiflied also. The input was not problem already, but other problems would come out!! ?Brett, could to tell me what file I shuold open and edit in VB script editor??

You need to open the Macro and edit it, You can't edit and save if it pops up in the ERRROR window... there is no path to save the data too

That should do it!

Thanks
Brian

Brian, the "Macro" that you mentioned is it VB script editor???

Thanks for you all alot......
