Looks like you put a lot of time into the rework. I never could get the hang of Paint.

One thing I can think of, may have been mentioned already. If you could have 2 screens open and could copy and paste between them.  That would be great but it allready sounds great. Thanks Klaus

Greg, I have been downloading every update but haven't had time to play yet. Probably won't be able to for a couple of more weeks but looking forward to it.

Thanks for your efforts Klaus.

General Mach Discussion / Re: M01 optional stop LED

« on: April 14, 2009, 10:31:53 AM »

THe M1 optional stop led is OEM number 65. It will tell you if Optional stop is enabled. If you to indicate that motion has stopped because it is opeional stop I'll have to think about this but probably could do it in a brain. There may well be an led already that will do this though, not sure. You could try these if you want to and see if they give the results your looking for. 80,805,111.

General Mach Discussion / Bug Reporting

« on: April 09, 2009, 12:08:24 PM »

Brian just posted this on the Yahoo group. This will help streamline the bug traceing process and help Brian do what we all want him doing. Writeing code, fixing bugs in Mach and makeing improvements. Tell us what you think.

Hello all,
We are starting to put in a bug tracking system.. I will no longer be
able to take bugs via the list when this is up and running (going for
the single path).. My goal is the following :

1.) Public Bug list so you can see the status and if it has been
reported in the past.
2.) Brett and Hood will test to see that it can be repeated (if no set
path to repeat is found it will not make it to the Bug list). I know
there are times that this is the nature of the bug so we will keep a
list of such reports and will work on them in the background to see if
they are truly bugs)
3.) Bugs will be tested by Brett and Hood before they are release to the
public so I have a check after me 
4.) Based on the number of reports this will better help me figure out
what I should be working on 

This needs to be added because I have spent the week not working on code
but looking at bugs that people have reported.. Some valid, some not.
and with so much going on my list turned into a word jumble    .  I need
a way to clear things up for me so i can more effectively use my time
(and have a life) . This should in the end help to make for a much
better product and help me get more code done! Brett and Hood will be
posting for help for people to test for bugs (Like Plasma systems and
other machines that need special hardware). All so if you would like to
talk about bugs here on the list we could have a link to the bug list
and the  bug number    .

Tell me what you think about this if you would     (Flame retardant
underwear on and ready??? CHECK!)

Thanks
Brian

Klaus,
   I edited your first post in this topic to include a link to your screen designer. I have downloaded V1.14b but haven't had time to play with it yet. Thank you very much for working on this.

General Mach Discussion / Re: Limits/Home/Software Limits Question

« on: April 07, 2009, 11:32:27 PM »

I don't know of a work around for softlimits. If they were set correctly and they don't work, it is a limitation of the G100. 

Also, is there a way to reset the manual limit override once it has been set?

I don't understand what your asking.

Dan, look on your settings page and make sure the auto limits override is activated. As far as the soft limits, I can't remember for sure if they work with the G100. For now, turn them off and lets work on one problem at the time. If you still have a problem homeing and getting the limit switch fault post your XML and try adding a little debounce in general config. You can start at 2000 and lower until you start getting the problem again then raise it a little and call it good.
