General Mach Discussion / Spindle On and Off- Please help
« on: July 24, 2018, 11:29:47 AM »
Good morning, any help on this issue, is greatly appreciated.
Runing Mach3 on 4x8 CNC, steppers and spindle.
I can turn on and off the spindle from Mach 3.
When I load a program, the spindle starts and then when the Gcode start running, the spindle shuts off and right after the program finishes,
the spindle starts back on.
I also see the yellow abnormal condition on, but that refers to the axis...
What I have been doing is that as soon as I see the spindle CW F5 button start flashing , I can click on it again to start the spindle , finish the cut , and then
turning it off...
Thanks
