Hi, JJ

I think the Wizards are in VB and can be modified, Look under M<ach3, Addons folder then Teach.

Should be able to modify there ?

Hope this Helps, Chip

Hi, JJ

Use the Teach feature, It Saves it to C:\Mach3\Gcode, You will have to Edit it anyway to add the M99, Use the File, "Save As" and Save it to the C:\Mach3\SubRoutines\, Folder.

On the Edit Problem, Try this "C:\WINDOWS\notepad.exe", Works Hear for Me.

Hope this Helps, Chip

Hi, JJ

I think your Sub files need to be in " C:\Mach3\Subroutines\ " Folder.

The following is in a .tap file called Main.tap located in c:\mach3\gcode\

G28.1 Z0 Y0 X0
M98 (Sub.tap) L1
M30

The following is in a .tap file called Sub.tap located in c:\mach3\Subroutines\

G0 G49 G40 G17 G50 G90
G82 X0 Y0 Z-.01 P0 R-.001 F150
X1.53 Y3.1 Z-.42
M99
%

Works Hear !

Hope this Helps, Chip

Hi Art & Brian

Working with Ver.2.0.005 LC

Layers as drawn is back & Working, Thanks

Optomiize drawing, Doesn't remove Redundant lines, As it did in previous version.

Remove Redundants on Load, Has never Removed them for me and still doesn't.

I see Splines are loading now, Thay cut a little funny, LC imports the shape to create them also.

The Move Origin with Mouse is Working Wonderfully, I have had it mess-up with Art's error Msg.'s a couple times, But not at first move of Origin as before, Ill go back and note them and post Soon !!. 


Lathe: I must be Missing something hear (Everybody Nodding there Head's, L-O-L U-Hu..a...), OK!, Enough,!!.

Seem's to post the "Roughing" portion of code a little long on both end's

Orientation for start of G-code & return to start point seem's unclear.

Should be at end (Right End at stock OD, Rad. X & Z 0)
 
Maybe there should be a Start at x,z & Return to X,Z in LC Lathe or Post option's, To allow for clearer setup ?

Maybe If reset Origin to min x, Z then Move Origin to set start point & move it away from profile to stock Dir, Rad., then generate Inc moves to fill/cut into final pass value would/could allow starting at left,Right or Center and use X0, Z0 Start point.

This would allow for Joging/Cutter Calibration and reset to 0,0 for start.

Thanks & Just some Thought's Hear, Chip

Hi, Tybrenis

What is your CPU speed, Needs to be above 1000 Mhz for best results.

Thanks, Chip
