Mach4 General Discussion / Mach4 Enable/Disable Script

« on: August 27, 2021, 09:04:03 AM »

Hey Everyone,

I would like 2 physical button 1 to enable and the other to disable. These would replicated the onscreen "Enable" and "Disable" button in mach4. Is there a script to assign one of the inputs in Mach 4 to be an "Enable" button?

Mach4 General Discussion / Mach 4 question

« on: August 23, 2021, 01:19:37 PM »

Hey,

So I have a question with regards to Mach 4. I want to use a pulse encoder generator (jog wheel) to control the jog movements of my axis. I would like it so if a button is pressed it activates the jog wheel for a specific axis(x) and if a different button is pressed it activates the jog wheel for a different axis(y). How would you or is it even possible to connect the pulse generator to Mach 4. Also, is it possible to edit the jog increments from buttons on a panel? Any help would be much appreciated.

Mach4 General Discussion / MACH 4 G1 CMD DOES NOT WORK

« on: August 18, 2021, 11:01:25 AM »

Hey Everyone,

I have finished setting up my CNC replacing my Chinese cnc controller with an AXBB-E. Everything works I can stop/start spindle and control its speed. Jog the machine etc. However, I am having an issue with running g code. I can execute G0 commands but not G1 commands if I run G1 X10 Y10 Z0 F300 it does not do anything. I think this has something to do with the feed rate somehow. I have not encountered this issue before. I should mention I am using Mach 4. Any help would be much appreciated.
