General Mach Discussion / Re: What is a CHARGE PUMP?

It can do anything that you like... I just made a program here : http://machsupport.com/forum/index.php?topic=509.0 to make 125% the max Feed override

I have been thinking about this and I can do this in the Macro Pump... So here is a quick little bit of code to fix the max FRO problem...

'This is to set the MAX FRO to 125%
If(GetDRO(21) >125) Then
Call SetDRO(21,125)
End If

This should fix the problem

nope you will not need one (at first). The charge pump is a macro that runs all the time in Mach.

The post processor is a converter that goes on the output of a Cam program to make the Gcode fit a particular machine... I like to think of it as a Gcode output filter
