I knew you were going to do that! I don't have a shuttle at this time so I have no way of testing it I will see if I can order a new one at some point.

Thanks

When you install don't run Mach3 first. also do you ever see the driver test when you install?

They should ...

You need to double click the arrow at the start of the chain to get into the leadin settings

Hope that helps

Yup, the problem is to many things to draw in to short of a time we need to do somthing to make it draw a bit faster...

You need to set the speed max number on the Spindle settings tab in the ports and pins settings. that will point the data to the 64th register.

That should do it!

You are doing VERY well and you are just about done!
You need to add your code to the M3.m1s ,M4.m1s and M5.m1s files to make the spindle work as you like.

Now I think you have to have the spindle relays turned on to have the modbus spindle working... just enable them and set the port to 3 (that will not hurt anything) and I think you should be good to go!

Good work

There is not a setting for that but you could set Mach 3 to be in inc mode by default (just change it on the tab screen) and I think that will do it. Or are you talking about the center dial? If so we would have to change that in the plugin.
thanks

And if you have a 4th axis you will be able to wrap it around the 4th axis I am adding code for that now and I think many are going to to love this! I get mail all the time about how to cut with a 4th axis and this will help stop the mail

I am very happy to hear that it is working for you and if you hang in you will get much more for your 50.00!

Thank you
Brian

You should not have to optimize that file... a Gerber is a file that should have all the data needed to cut a part. We will look into making the path better but the optimization code is not simple
