Russ, I have been doing some talking and right now it looks like you will need to do this in C++.  I know little about Vb and far less about C++. Good luck.

Have a look at Rogers machine encoder interface. May be what the Dr. ordered.

FAQs / Re: A Warm-up Routine
« on: September 17, 2008, 07:27:37 PM »
If your going for super precision that isn't a bad idea but generally the spindle is needing warming the most. Slow to fast in steady ramps will save your bearings so they say. I don't think there is any routine that is going to heat the ways exactly like the program being run. Maybe you could loop the program in a dry run with no part if this won't cause problems. Sometimes the jaws or clamps may not allow you to run the program exactly as it would in produstion minus the part but if it will, that would be the best warm up I can think of. If your running the same parts day in and day out, you can take a 15 min. break, let the machine set, and then start dialing it back in.

Well Sam, I have had mine back out as well. Think maybe its because the spindle originally would run 5800 in higest gear. You know how it is, once I got the VFD wired, well hey!  ;D

Dave, I have sent you a PM

I'm not sure on the serial com. I have seen others try but I don't recall anyone suceeding.

If you want to try and use the sleep command, use the bleeding edge version 3.042.008. This will come with its on share of humps to get over but for the sleep command, it's the only one.

What version of Mach are you running?

« on: September 16, 2008, 08:46:36 AM »
Dave, i use prox switches. There is no contact, they repeat accuratley, and coolant doesn't bother them. You can get some that will sense only certain materials as well. That comes in handy at work on our robot cells. If it is an Alum. cell, we get ones that can only see steel and use steel targets. You can get PNP or NPN and 2 wire NO and NC. Here is a link to an example. http://web4.automationdirect.com/adc/Shopping/Catalog/Sensors_-z-_Encoders/Inductive_Proximity_Sensors/8mm_Round_(AE_Series)/Standard_Sensing_Distance_(AE1_Series)/AE1-AN-1A
