General Mach Discussion / Mach3 Turn showing Mill options in Engine Config/Ports &Pins
« on: April 04, 2021, 01:07:54 PM »
Evening all.
I'm fairly new to Mach3 and specifically the turn version. I have come across a little problem.
I added a few buttons onto the standard lathe screenset (1024.lset).
If I now point my mouse to the Engine configuration / ports & pins; 'MILL OPTIONS' is there instead of 'TURN OPTIONS'.
How this manifested itself was that (all of a sudden), I realised the X axis was cutting on the radius and not the diameter as I had set. Despite showing 'diameter mode' on the screen.
If you look at the two screen grabs, you'll see the difference.
Any help would be wonderful.
Kind regards
Jack
