General Mach Discussion / Digitizing question
« on: November 25, 2011, 08:19:22 PM »
So if I touch probe digitize using Mach and the wizard does it only give me the xyz data and or a G code of the finished part, and if so, how do I account for the raw stock that has to be removed or do I have to shift the profile down in the Z to the finished size.
The old way of digitizing models would be to scan the part with a sylus of the diameter of the cutter for roughing and keep reducing the sylus diameter and cutter for semi finish then finish.

Newfangled Solutions Mach3 Wizards / Wizard problem
« on: November 22, 2011, 11:17:16 PM »
I like the wizards now I have started using but have one issue, when I input data I normally input lets say .250 but I have to input 0.250, if I don't put the 0 first it becomes 250. that could be a nasty problem.
Also when I am on the the mach3 screen and go to Last wizard, the material screen comes up but doesn't show the next or continue then I have to shut down and start again.

General Mach Discussion / $1,000.000 reward for help

Need somebody to look at my plugins. I just bought 2 ShuttleRU LCD pendants from Andrey in Russia. Andrey said he used the Pro shuttle plugin except for the LCD and they work fine with Mach3, well on my desktop computer, but will not work on my test machine which I am running servo's and DSPMC. All the buttons work and the inner ring for step function, but the outer jog ring doesn't work until I remove DSPMC plugin, then the outer ring works. There must be a conflict between the Shuttle plugin in and the DSPMC plugin.
I don't even know how to post the plugins on this forum. The Pro shuttle plugin in on the plugin downloads.
Rufi at Vital systems doesn't understand and with Andrey with have language problem.

Just bought 2 ShuttleRU_LCD pendants from Andrey in Russia, he said the plugin is based on the Shuttle pro except for the LCD.
On Mach3 on my desktop all the functions work. I set up the buttons and the inner ring goes through the step functions good and the outer ring starts of at a slow jog and increases to a fast jog.
When I install on my machine (not using steppers but DSPMC) everything works except the jog outer ring, when I remove DSPMC and just run Mach 3 on the computer the Shuttle works fine, any help would be appreciated.
Ray.
P.S. I have emailed Rufi at Vital Systems.

Should I write over the 043.022 with the old 2.63 or should I delete everything off my computer and load 2.63, but I don't want to loose all my setting. Any recommendations, I have spent too many hours so far trying to make the Shuttle outer ring work..

General Mach Discussion / Shuttle RU pendant help
« on: March 24, 2011, 09:33:23 PM »
Does anybody have the Shuttle RU pendant from Andrey in Russia. I just bought one and it works except for the outer ring, it doesn't do anything, I think it is for the slow/fast jog. I am having a few problems with the language barrier between Andrey and myself.
I set up the the buttons on the plug in screen and they all work, Andrey said I don't have to setup the wheels but I was wondering if i have to set anything in the Mach3.
Ray.
P.S. I bought two pendants and they both do the same thing.
