Hi, RC

Eariler ver of LC started a 50.00 then as it progressed went to 75.00 at full release it might be at 150.00, Not Sure

It's a top profile of the part, LC just flips to the bottom.

If you can send me a LCAM or DXF and I'll post it for you.

In the code I posted put a G21 It will set it to MM much smaller, on Progran Run page reduce speed with the feed Over-Ride.

N5 G80
G21
N10 G0  X16.6100  Z0.3000

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Spinnetti

Mill seems pretty good, still a few bugs though, Hears a couple more shots, It's still Bata Version at this point.

The one with step cut's also shows Tab's on the bottom cut.

If you need the DXF i'll post them to.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, RC

Hears the post view in Mach3 from LC, That looks better.

And a DXF, Give it some space air cut.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, RC

There's no limitation that I'm aware of on g-code and Mill,

Lathe, I didn't remember that it wouldn't even post single line code without PRO Lic..

Just some of the Pro features, Pocketing, Offsetting, Foam 2d and Lathe 

On a good day I have problems with lathe, Scheduled for a re-make so far back well........

Thanks, Chip

Hi, RC

Would have thought someone using SheetCam would have commented by now.

The Mach2 post should be close, Which one is working good for you now ?

Using BobCad V 22 hear.

Thanks, Chip

General Mach Discussion / Re: How do I zero Machine Coords for "A-axis"?

« on: January 04, 2008, 10:24:34 PM »

Hi, Halk
 
That's much better, Machine Coords for "A", Couldn't see the "Bold One", Just missed it.

Guess you have a "A" home switch hooked up, When you doing what ever your doing hear, Why not switch the A Home to "Emulated" in P & Pin's Inputs or a  toggle switch to show it Homed, Then the DoButton( 25 ) on a separate Button to ref A axis would work as long as it's not a Limit SW also.

What I really don't understand is, Why zero one axis Machine Cord, If your cutting something with a 0,0,0,0 start in the g-code and want to move to another location or Zero Your A axis and cut it again you use the Zero All or Zero buttons individually as needed.

Note: It Appears  If you have the Machine Coord"s selected on Program Run Page , The Diagnostic page "Current Position" DRO's and Setting's page "Encoder Position's" DRO's, Don't seem to update as thy should.

I couldn't find any oem code's for A,B,C buttons you were looking for eather.

Just Confused Hear A Little, Chip
