General Mach Discussion / Re: Need Help with #[Var] in Mach3

You can write a Macro to set the values.  Save the code as e.g. M1000.m1s in the macro folder for the profile you are using then just add a M1000 to the start of your programs.

Dim a As Integer
For a = 101 To 199
  SetVar(a,0)
Next
End

I am not an expert at Brains, not needed to use them much but this is what I think should work.

Latched is locked into a fixed state until forced to change.  So my guess is you need to toggle the state in the brain or force a state to make sure you have the state you need.

Outputs are latched under normal control so I would have thought Brains did the same.  I could be wrong as I do not use Brains much.

You do not need a full licence to install plugins, a default install is located in the root folder of drive C and Mach3 should have the PlugIns folder ready to use with Flash.dll and Joystick.dll already installed.

Have you got a clean index signal, X and Z use the index so taper threads can be cut.

Which threading wizard are you using there are two on a standard install?

Is the feed rate on the G76 line correct?

What happens if you reduce the spindle speed by half?
