General Mach Discussion / Turn laser on and off for reference.
« on: December 21, 2019, 09:06:18 PM »
Hey guys I feel like this should be an easy fix but it’s not working for some reason for me. So I am using a ethernet smooth stepper with Mach3
And my laser is working great using M10/M11. All I am looking to do is turn the laser on at say 2% percent to jog it to my zero position for reference and then shut it off after I find my home zero position. My screen set already has a button for laser on I just need to figure out how to trigger the laser on at 2% power and keep it on until I click the button again. I can use screen4 to edit the existing button but I’m not sure what commands to call to turn on the laser.
Any ideas?
