Mach4 General Discussion / How do I do this?

« on: May 26, 2016, 09:56:44 AM »

Trying to convert some code to work with Mach4.  Getting a "Feature not licensed" error.  Sorry for what probably is a very simple answer.

IF[#30GE9.6] GOTO75 (AT TOP HEIGHT 9.6")

Thanks

Works now in MDI mode as well, not sure why.  Everything was enabled.

Thanks Daz!  After I replied last time, everything starting working (other than in MDI mode).  I was able to simulate a running gcode with my macro in it and it worked...

As far as the rc - I have no idea what that is even for, I just copied some code somewhere.  I am still learning, yet very slowly.  I will modify as you have and try in MDI mode again.

Thanks again for your help!!

Sorry.  As stated, I am able to run this macro when in McLua, but not through calling it in a Gcode or MDI.

Thanks for any assistance.

Thanks Daz, that worked.

 I have another question..  I have created a macro, that for some reason I cannot get to work (using DEMO version of Mach4 Hobby).  If I open the script and debug and run, it will work.  If I use MDI and type m1002, nothing happens.  I have diagnostics tab open so I can see if the output comes on.  Also, If I change the output to 0, then it will work in MDI.  I am at a loss.

Is there a way to simulate a input so I can test a macro script using Mach4 Demo version in simulation mode?

Thanks

Thank you for the reply.  I am not sure what you mean by "declare global counter".  This is my first project using Mach and this type of programming.

Mach4 General Discussion / Turn OFF output based on input status OR timed value

« on: May 16, 2016, 03:59:29 PM »

Have an output that will turn on from a Mcode and can switch it off when an input goes high.  I would like to add a set timed value (30sec) to turn off the output if the input doesn't go high.  Not sure how to do this.  I am using Mach4.

Thanks
