Hi, Rick

Post the values for R1 & c1 when you get a chance, Happy it works.

The M05 should turn the Spindle Off, I don't understand exactly what your saying.

If you have a Dual Trace Scope, Look at the input & output Pulses.

With a 10 turn R1, You may be able to tweak for more Speed if needed.

The ability of Mach to have time see the delay pulse & the output pulse  reseting before the next input pulse, Set the Speed Max Limit.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Art

Sorry about that File, Took a Coffee Brake to load for Me, But it Loaded.

There's a 3 x 4 inch object in there Some Where to cut, It's so small you can't see it at All, Just 2 dashed lines bottom Right of drawing.

I Didn't now it had some Turned Off Layer's, Hadn't loaded it in to a Cad Program. 

File Was from a Friend's company that builds 37' & 47' Trawler's.

The Zoom Button feature zoomed into it Fine.

The double click on the Screed to re-size Fine Also

A couple Thought's Hear.

Could you Add a stasis Bar or % Done showing that LC is Still Active, And a way to Terminate Back to a stable LC if Such a File is Loaded by Mistake

Windows Task Monitor and the top of the LC Window will Show "Not Responding" even though LC is Plugging Along Just Fine.

Thanks, Chip

PS: The Move Origin with Mouse is Working  Wonderfully.

LC Ver. 2.0.003 Has fixed The Move Origin Mouse Move Hear Also, Woooo---Hoooooooo.

Thanks !!, Chip

Hi, Keith

The  L in lset changes Mach to X Z view and allows lathe code to load.

I don't really understand why you cant change Mach3Mill screen to X Z View and load a Lathe G-code File.

Maybe some one can explain this.

It's a little bit of a pane to rename .set to .lset in windows Explorer, I use XnView for that.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, All

Thanks for the post work in todays LC update, Art & Brian, Post is a little off I think but a nice step forward.

Seam's to post the Rough portion of code a little long on both end's.

Orientation for start of G-code & return to start point seem unclear/off.

What happened to the return to 0,0 in Post Option ?

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 ?

Thanks & just some Thought's Hear, Chip

Hi, Keith

It's a work in progress screen set I use it for both Mill & lathe,This one is a lathe screen set(lset), So it will run Mach in Lathe Mode.

I find it easier to use more Info. than original Mach3Turn.lset, Trying to get time to add other features to it.

Changed the TAB pop-out for lathe use.

Try'ed to call yesterday about your reset issues I'll try again or give me a call.

Thanks, Chip
