Well, hard to tell what the real problem is without knowing your code ( Dwell was just a guess as I had this problem with M3 and processing it). Ask your boss if you can post your code here - if it was made with VC 2010 then I can run it myself and check.

Your boss is crazy.

Because there is no documentation how to do it, it is complicated. The only thing which helps are old examples in SDK ( unfortunately written in junk style, with no comments).
Nobody helps because these who have the knowledge paid high price getting there ( being reverse engineers).

Do you know that you need to create your state machine for jogging and manual movement ? Mach does not provide trajectory info for that. You need to understand motion constrains and be able to build your own trjectory for such cases. Together with state machine which handles it within mach.

Do you develop commercial product or you do it for fun ?

I have almost finished my devices ( now they are in test phase). I have ethernet motion controller ( originally it was using USB, but I decided for ethernet for final version).I plan to sell plugin software + design ( so everybody can do it himself)

You are in the beginnig of the road with your motion controller - there are many things to go until you have it running.I can help you  answering your questions, but for something "how can I solve it" - this sound like consultancy.
There are some examples in SDK ( in source code of old plugins).

 I wanted to create open source motion plugin, but I ended up making it myslef in 99% ( there was no help :-( ), that is why this become commercial ( if you want it  this way, contact me with private message).

About dwelling - in some cases ( like M3, when the spindle starts) you need to process Mach request to "delay" motion processing. You need stat machine in your plugin ( for this and e.g. jogging and homeing). Your plugin is "locked" until you finish the request.

I have run your GCode. As far as I can tell your problem comes from lack of Dwelling support.

One more thing - you may have to install Mach plugin wizzard as well - I think my project refereces some files from there ( instead of SDK)

You can download Visual Express 2010 and try. Not sure if 2003 is supported for Mach plugins.

Does it work if you run the code in my virtual plugin ?
