I thought it too, but it is not. I was running my program at speed rate 2400mm/min and SNL was moving the torch at 1000 mm/min. Too slow!

Does anybody know where I can change the travel speed used by Set Next Line?

SetNextLine is what I was looking for. Thanks everybody who told me it.

BR549,
what kind of functions will you put on PN200? I use a XBOX360 wifi controller as pendant today.
I will be greatful if you tell me how to make a macro with the TOM routines, then I can use the macro in a button of my XBOX controller.

Hi my friends

I have a CandCNC Bladerunner AIO, using Mach3 and Sheetcam on a Plasma Table.

I have the Floating Head system, and use MP3000 post.

So, my GCode has many G28.1 G92 codes to set the height for the start the torch.

So far so good, it works perfectly, less when I have to STOP the code to change the plasma tips when runing a long code, or other reason.

So I back the code some lines, and click RUN FROM HERE.

The program scroll since the begining, takes me about 5min when in long code (10.000 lines) and change the Z DRO as it passes through the G28.1 G92 codes, and I have to REF Z all the time. It makes me furious.

Does anybody have the same issue? Is it normal in Mach3? I would like just to choose the line I want to start, click RUN FROM HERE, and RUN button. Simple like that. I dont want that Mach3 passes for all the lines before I can continue the program. You can imagine in a 20.000 lines program how much time I spent waiting.

Does somebody can help me?

Thanks in advance.
