yes I am using the newfangled wizard.
Can I use the keyboard then, and not the pop up screen. That pop up keyboard could be very dangerous...
Thanks,Ray.

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.

I think i should have selected the mirror image when I was at the g54 x and y zero.

I would be looking at Galil or somebody else, I am still trying to get my DSPMC to work on red cap Fanuc, and on my other project with DC servo Dynamics the DSPMC works but the Acc/Dec in feed hold is pathetic @ .75ms. I have been asking for him to change it to 150ms or whatever for months. Also, I bought a really nice USB hand held pendant from Andrey in Russia, doesn't work, conflict with DSPMC plug-in.

We never saw the Yasagawa units up here in Canada. All the mori's would have Fanuc And the encoders would be 2000 Pulses and guess that's X4 8000ppr. Any Mori with Fanuc DC brushed motors and drives would be +-10volts analogue so you would need a $1000.00 motion board and good look trying to make it work. I do have one mill working at the moment with DSPMC running DC motors Servo Dynimics but that's hit and miss. i have been trying to run Fanuc ac analogue motors for the past 12 months with no success.
