General Mach Discussion / feedrate & units per min are different
« on: October 22, 2008, 11:10:58 PM »
After a tool change, the speeds specified by the Gcode seem to be ignored and the speed in "motor tuning" is used. Before the tool change everything works as planned. I am using the latest legacy mach 3 and Gcode from RhinoCam. I have mach3 set to stop and wait upon tool change.

It happened specifically here:

Instead of deep drilling at 4 ipm, it did it at my Z motor tune speed of 12.... Then instead of profiling at 3 IPM it went at 20. The FRO says the correct speed... but units/min says the motor tune speed...
Is there some setting in general config I may be missing?

For those needing the mach3 post processors for RhinoCam, these were given to me directly by MecSoft support.

Both MM and INCH post processors are included.
