General Mach Discussion / Re: QUESTION ABOUT FEED HOLD and spindle stop

Hi Rene,
I think you have answered your own question here. The usual sequence is :-
Feed Hold - to stop program
Stop - to stop spindle
Start Cycle - to resume (but you have to restart the spindle manually)
If you feel inclined you could create two extra VB screen buttons to perform these tasks, perhaps in a better way (Pause / Resume).
Tweakie.
