Mach4 General Discussion / Re: Mach4 in combination with CSLabs CSMIO/IPs fail for more then 1.5 year..

Hello, I have been working since the beginning of Mach4, I have 10 machines working in the industry, all with CSMIO/IP-A. and the question is? You have problems with the PID system. If I remember correctly, Your Controller is CSMIO/IP-S, and this System does not use PID.

G-Code, CAD, and CAM discussions / G code G91 como incrementar

« on: March 23, 2022, 11:14:28 AM »

Good morning, I would like your help since I am no expert in GCODE. I have a client that has a CNC with two "XY" axes, in which I am modifying the siemens system for Mach4, but I came across a problem. the problem is that they need the old Gcode ISO programs to be able to carry out the work of rectifying the material by passes, checking the old HDD of the machine and having already recovered all the programs. now the question is this! how they work with XY how can I use a G code to increment a dimension for roughing. I send an example where you can see the profile of the drawing where I am using the G91 in the loop of the Subroutine but as it is a Y axis I cannot increment for the roughing. switching to the Z works best. That's why I ask if there is a variable so that, whenever you loop, increment a value in Y? I send the example, and the ISO code of the old system because it seems to me that a variable was used for this purpose. By the way, I would appreciate if someone could send me an example if possible, thank you
