G-Code, CAD, and CAM discussions / Called Code in Code M executed only at the end ? why ?

« on: November 05, 2014, 09:02:06 AM »

Hello,

 I have a Code M which is called Inside another Code M (this was working Under Windows XP in my old Mach3 correctly) , but since I reinstalled my Mach3 Under Win7 (32 bit) the encapsulated CodeMs are executed only at the end of the outer Code M ?!

Any configuration about this ?

My case is as follows:

I have a toolchanger, a macro to open the chuck, one to clean the chuck, one to stop cleaning, one to close the chuck.
Now the Tool Change Macro I had did the following : move to the free place, open the chuck, clean the chuck, close the chuck ... move to the next position, open the chuck, move to the tool, and close the chuck , ... then move to init pos ...

Before this worked allready ...

Now with my new installation Under Win 7 and with newer release of Mach3 I have the movements all executed and after the last movement all inner macros for opening closing cleaning ... are executed after all moves are done   

Any ideas why this behaviour changed ?

Thanks for some quick help because now I can't run my Mach3 anymore !

Best regards

Feature Requests / Re: 3X parallel ports

Hello Moderators,

I was reading with stupefaction that no 3rd parallel card would be able in Mach3, but I'm interested in this feature too ... and many other users too ... what is the technical problem that this will not be implemented ?

Because using multiple Parallel cards in other applications is no real programming problem ...

Can you just tell some more detail where the problem is so we can find maybe a solution together ?

Best regards
