Mach4 General Discussion / Re: Fusion 360 simultaneous machining on the A axis

« on: June 14, 2020, 07:34:33 AM »

Hi, and thanks for the file. Appreciate the help.

However, it seems the only way I can illustrate the issue is take that file and produce a video capture of my screen, showing that it does not work...I get the same error message when post processing. The youtube link is: https://youtu.be/mVVMVNxgkTM.

It would be really nice if I could get the actual GCode file produced by a post processor, rather than just the model file...

Regards,
Barry

Hi Barry,

When you make your YouTube video 'Private' no one else can view it.

Hi SparWeb,

Don't know why but I still use the old layout although there are a few different 'looks' to choose from.
The SMF has it's moments but overall it is good, there are a couple of things I would like to change but the boss doesn't let me anywhere near any of the settings.

So I am hopefull that I can just send the Z Axis direction to Pin 7 as is normal and to Pin 9 to feed the MX3660 digital out 4

Looks good.

The Z Axis Direction signal will toggle between the High and Low state dependant on axis direction movement. The signal is persistent and retains it's state until changed.

Now I do not know how to get into the screen set and edit the individual home buttons.  They do not flash when I go into Operator>Edit Button Scripts

You need to use a Screen Designer (such as Klaus's Screen) https://www.machsupport.com/downloads-updates/screensets/
to change the buttons to VB buttons before you can enter your VB scripts.
