General Mach Discussion / DRO change
« on: February 25, 2006, 03:13:52 PM »
Hi,when I go into the diagnostic page of Mach3 to do a little jogging and 'zero' some coordinates,when I retuen to the 'program run' page the settings have changed and I can't get back my coordinates(even if I go back to 'diagnostics'). The number change looks pretty arbitrary.-Keith

The unchecking of the 'persistant jog mode' (of course) was just a coincidence.It started working for some unknown reason then firing up Mach3 again for the first time created the problem again.'Continuous' works,'step' does not.?-Keith

Yes Art. In unchecking 'persistant jog mode' it seems to work.

Is your machine 'trued up' properly?

I just started to use the 'jog' function in Mach3 and found it on the diagnosis window(only there ,right?).'Continuous' works but step is not working.Used this function before with this machine and Mach2 with no problem.Any suggestions?-Keith

General Mach Discussion / Rotary moves
« on: February 23, 2006, 11:48:58 AM »
My 'g-coding' is coming along nicely.On many compound moves that also contain an 'a-axis' move ,I get reasonable velocity.I was under the impression that I could do a g01 'a'-n alone and could get the speed up...but that doesn't happen even with a rather large 'F'.So I went back to a little test code that Brian showed me to check repeatability on the a-axis.His code just said: 'a'-n(no G-anything)alone on a 'block'; and the axis screams(in a good way) and bingo,right on the money in terms of repeatability.Is saying just : 'a'-n equivalent to a G0 for this axis?

General Mach Discussion / Mach3 Sherline Mode

If the box for 'Sherline mode' is checked,in Mach3,is the 'pulse width' in 'motor tuning' ignored?-Keith
