Forum suggestions and report forum problems. / Re: Registering to forum Captcha sucks

They really piss me off.....I would still like to see all new members first post be moderated, at least it would give
moderators/administrators an IP address.

Hi Craig,

All new member's and contributor's IP addresses are already logged but when (as in this case) a VPN is being used the IP address is worthless.

In a matter of minutes in https://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php?board=11.0 a "shower" of spam

Soo... Captcha SUCKS!

It took him (I assume it is just one guy) a little longer than minutes to register the new members and place the spam postings but I agree...  Captcha SUCKS!


I have requested that the registration Captcha be changed from the basic to the complex - maybe it will help.

It is perhaps as Craig has been saying all along, in many other postings - if you want accurate and reliable machining / probing / etc. then forget the cheap Chinese controllers.

Mach4 General Discussion / Re: GALIL 413x M11Px M10Px

« on: April 23, 2019, 07:57:22 AM »

ive been trying to get M11 M10 commands to work with my galil 4133 ethernet controller. for a plasma machine,

I don't think the 4133 plugin supports the M11/M10 command set - perhaps contact Galil directly and ask the question.

will the M10 M11 commands work in mach4 with the new galil plugin.

Mach4 uses the M62/M63 command set - again you would have to check with Galil to see if their plugin supports these commands.

Within Mach3, Settings Screen – select; Set Steps per Unit – follow the on-screen instructions.

Also, please read the Mach3 manual;

Section 5.5.1 up to and including 5.5.2.3

Some changes to Mach3 do require a re-start this may be one of them ?
Perhaps try it and see.

Share Your GCode / Re: 2D projects to share

« on: April 21, 2019, 01:38:57 AM »

plenty of gcodes files are included in a  .rar file (use freeware 7zip to unrar)

The .rar file was outdated and has now been replaced with a .zip file.
