General Mach Discussion / Tool measure macro

« on: July 29, 2006, 11:39:42 AM »

Hi there,
I'm new in mach3 world, I need a toolchanger macro, but i don't know how to write it.
I made a video that shows how my actual software do that, there's anyone who can make a thinks like that?

You can see the video at this address:

www.fxmodel.it/tool.mp4
or
www.fxmodel.it/tool.mov

In the video you can see the machine stop in the "tool change position", when i ask to change the tool, it goes over the probe and go down slowly, when it press the microswith stops and go back until it release.
Now it come back to the "tool change position" and wait until i change the tool, then it measure the new tool.

I'll be grateful to anyone can help me.

Ehm... sorry for my english, I'm italian

Bye Fabiano
