« on: November 02, 2017, 02:16:49 AM »

Hi, when I go to Mach 4 General Discussion  there is no "New Post" button on the page.  I cant seem to get to a page that has the "new post" buttons on them, so I used this reply to ask for help.  can someone tell me how to get to the page that has the post options in the Mach4 general discussion.  thanks...

Hi Halfmill,

Use the New Topic button (just above the posts themselves)

General Mach Discussion / Re: Parameters seem off

As Rich has said please read the manuals.

When Vcarve is loaded to the Mach3 software the artwork appears off the table in the display window.

Do you have offsets (in relation to the Datum) enabled when generating the Gcode from VCarve ?

On the MDI screen is Local System Rotate, just enter 90 (or -90) and that should do it. Please be aware that your datum will also be moved.

As far as Mach3 is concerned G20 and G21 are modal commands so it is good practice to always include the appropriate command at the start of every Gcode file. This is usually one of the jobs of the Post Processor.

I am pleased that you have found and solved the problem and I am sure you have learned a lot about Mach3 & Gcode in the process. That's really what CNC is all about - learning
