Wow! It works! Thanks for that. When I finish I'll make a small manual how I made it.
The last problem with Spindle speed override.

function SROPlus()
    local inst = mc.mcGetInstance()
    local SRO = mc.mcCntlGetSRO(inst)
    if SRO == 250 then
       mc.mcCntlSetLastError(inst, "Can't increase SRO anymore.")
    else
       local NewSRO = (SRO + 10)
       mc.mcCntlSetSRO(inst, NewSRO)
    end
end

--SRO is read from 0 - 250
--SRO - 10%
function SROMinus()
    local inst = mc.mcGetInstance()
    local SRO = mc.mcCntlGetSRO(inst)
    if SRO == 0 then
       mc.mcCntlSetLastError(inst, "Can't decrease SRO anymore.")
    else
       local NewSRO = (SRO - 10)
       mc.mcCntlSetSRO(inst, NewSRO)
    end
end,

Very similar code doesn't work and sends error message ( in attachment )

When I write the name of mcCntlGetSRO function if script editor it even doesn't change its color to pink as it was with mcCntlGetFRO.

Thanks, but it is about Probe signal which exitsts in standard list of functions, but there are no Feedrate override + or Feedrate override - functions. So I need to write some script to do it? Is there any simplier way? MACH3 has just keys shortcuts for each button on the screen. Does MACH 4 have the same feature?

Hi
I want to able to override feedrate and spindle speed with keyboard keys but key shorcuts which worked in Mach3 don't work in Mach4. Does anybody know how to fix it or maybe how to set certain keys for correction of feedrate and spindle?

General Mach Discussion / Re: New Free mach 3 screenset (SIEMENS based)

I updated  Screenset to Version V1.5.
http://www.yara-automation.com/new-free-mach-3-screenset/

Diagnostics a "GoTo SafeZ" functions were added but I noticed a very strange behaviour of MACH 3. When I press "Goto SafeZ", the machine moves to Safe Z position, then to X0Y0 position, and then to Z0 position. I thought the machine has to move only in Safe Z coordinates. Is it normal?

General Mach Discussion / New Free mach 3 screenset (SIEMENS based)

« on: February 15, 2017, 03:09:37 AM »

Hi to all!
I've always liked professional equipment because it is nice and convenient in using. I like SIEMENS and it is well spreaded.
So I decided to make something similar for MACH 3. I've just finished the second version of my screen.

It is absolutely free and ready for downloading.

So check it and if you find any mistakes or propositions, contact me.

Mach Screens / Re: Password for custom screenset

There is misunderstanding. I don't want their password. When I started to design my screenset I thought that tere is no way to set a protection with password. But suddenly I saw this protected screen and I thought that somebody found the way.

So, as I understood, if I make my screenset, and I want to sell it, then anybody who bought it can change everything except of precompiled macroses. Am I right?

Mach Screens / Re: Password for custom screenset

I have a screenset (in German). It was sent by my client. So, when I try to load it to machscreen program, the window for password entering is appeared. If I enter the wrong password (I don't know the correct one), machscreen doesn't show any components of the screenset and I can't change anything. How is it possible?
