General Mach Discussion / Help with weird 4th axis issue!
« on: February 07, 2015, 10:59:58 AM »
Well I "think" I have it figured it out and as usual it's operator error. I was thinking that any A command would be incremental (like an idiot) even though I know x and y coordinates are absolute. So when it didn't move when I repeatedly typed in A90, that's because it was already at 90deg. Anyways the MDI commands now work fine, I just type in A + the degrees I want and it goes.
The jogging with the keyboard still is a bit funky, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't? But now at least I think I can trust the MDI commands and therefore G code. Now I just have to figure out how to generate 4th axis G code!!
