Good idea, I didn't think of that.

Yes!! Thanks guys for all the help, I finally got it to work. The screen blinks a bit during transition but the pendant stays up so that's the main thing.

Cheers,

Mark

Thanks Hood, I tried it but the pendant still goes away in between screens. I double checked to see that the code is there and everything seems fine just it doesn't work.

VERY easy Mark,
 Open the Program Run button in Screen4, change it to Script, Then under OPERATOR click Edit Button Script, click on the flashing Prgrm Run button and put this in then save.

DoOEMButton 1
Sleep 100
DoOEMButton 323 

Excuse the Newbie factor, I tried to do this but I mistakenly thought it was done directly in the Mach3 program. Then I figured out Screen4 is a program and managed to download and open it, but I'm running into dangerous territory as I can open the screenset but don't know how to "Open the Program Run button in Screen4, change it to Script,"

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Mark

You guys have lost me with the programming stuff    Although it would be fun to make a new screen I'm trying to get parts made at the moment and just don't have the time. If anyone does come up with a way that can be loaded easily please let me in on it?

Cheers,

Mark

Thanks Hood,

I'm guessing there's no settings that can be adjusted to accomplish this. It seems very strange that it would have been programmed this way.

Hi All,

I searched as this question has been raised before but there were no answers so I'm trying again:

The onscreen MPG is activated by the Tab key bit when you go from screen to screen, e.g. If you go from the Run screen to the Offsets screen, the MPG drops off and then you have to Tab it back up. There is a further annoyance that it doesn't remember the size/place it was set to and so you have to re-size it to fit the space or else it overlaps the other graphics.

Any ideas of a way to make it stay up, or at least remember its size and place?

Thanks,

Mark
