LazyCam (Beta) / LazyCam 2.080 Issues

« on: June 30, 2007, 08:15:29 AM »

Hi, Art &  Brian

Using DXF below, LC links several Primitives together and when trying to move start points on Arc's creates a complete Circle.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Stirling

Check your C:\ folder for other Mach3 folders, Art sometimes uses a different Mach3 folder (Mach3184...) install path in the installer program.

If you didn't change it during your install of Mach3 then you may find your old Xml in Mach3 folder and your new Mach3 in Mach3184... folder.

Maybe this will help, Chip

General Mach Discussion / Re: Mach3R2.0.079 Gen-Con-Fig. "Active Plane of View" XY YZ XZ

« on: June 26, 2007, 11:17:01 AM »

Hi, Art

Sad to see that, Guess I missed it, Could you remove it from General Config Screen as an option.

 Then you'll not have this Pop-Up as a topic any more.

There is still a problem in XY View of arcs though.

It's drawn properly if the XZ is used, Even though the view is XY. ?

Thanks, Chip

General Mach Discussion / Mach3R2.0.079 Gen-Con-Fig. "Active Plane of View" XY YZ XZ

Hi, Art

Using Gen-Con-Fig. Active Plane of View XZ or YZ doesn't change view, View stays in XY, Also YZ view doesn't show Arc's properly,

Picture below shows YZ view with arc problem, Would be nice if Active Plane of View was displayed/shown on View screen somewhere.

See Att. .tap file used.

Hoop-ping it's Me not The

Thanks, Chip

General Mach Discussion / Re: cannot get encoder or mpg to work, need help

« on: June 21, 2007, 02:25:33 PM »

Hi, Willem

If there 5 volts no resistor needed, some TTL encoders require a pull-up resistor, I think theres a good description on the Rutex web site.

There tied to the A & B lines then to 5 volts, Around 470 ohm's, Hears the link to look at.

I've used two encoders also, Direct to port.

Hope this Helps, Chip

Hi, Art, Brian

I understand what your saying, This is a small object, LCam offsets it properly even the nose of the airfoil.

Just seems to fail in ether the start or end of offset routine though.

Update!!

I tried using .0001 Load Options "Connection Tol.

It worked Great!! Now!!

Thanks, Chip
