General Mach Discussion / Barcode Plugin *** Andrew question
« on: August 31, 2011, 01:19:32 AM »
Andrew I am working with the Barcode Plugin. Is there a NotifyPlugins() call to activate the load Barcode button??

I am working on a system that does NOT have a mouse and I need to create a Button that I can assign a hotkey to to active the barcode function. As it is I have to go to the top menu and select the Plugin control then selct the load barcode selection. Without a mouse that is TOUGH to do .

Thanks (;-) TP

General Mach Discussion / SheetCam and MACH3 and Barcodes
« on: August 30, 2011, 09:22:50 PM »
For the ones using Scam with Mach3 it is now possible for Scam to generate Barcodes from the report generator. This is really handy for those that use a Barcode scanner to load Gcode Programs into Mach3.

I use it to generate a JOB report from Scam to go in the Job package. Then at CUT time the Guys can pull the report out and scan in the correct Gcode Program into MACH3 . Just makes it a little easier and lessens the chance of error as some cuts look a LOT alike.

Just a thought, (;-)TP

General Mach Discussion / MACH3 Manuals and Docs
« on: August 29, 2011, 11:22:19 AM »
I have noticed that all the MACH documentaion is still scattered about. Would it be helpfull if it was all gathered up and place in ONE spot be it manuals or user docs. That includes all OEM manuals that interface Mach.

It would probably be a DIY INDUSTRY first.

Just a thought, (;-)

General Mach Discussion / Mach Programer's manual
« on: August 24, 2011, 09:04:15 PM »
This is a request for an addition to the Mach programmers manual.  The LED,DRO,and Button list were a nice addition. Would it be possible to have a second listing based on the functions being in aphabetical order. It would make a search for a specific function much easier sometimes.

Thank You, (:-) TP

General Mach Discussion / News for plate burners(;-)

 I have been testing a cutting design program called MAKE THE CUT is is a vector cutting program used in the crafting, vinyl ,paper cutting world.

My wife and daughter use it for crafting with a CriCut. I was watching them work and noticed they were doing the same things I did for plasma only they did it 10 times faster than I could and in some cases did a much better job of it.

SO after a little studying and testing it is a VERY nice program that CAN be used in plasma design work. It outputs in several of the native Vector modes and it is possible that they could write a plugin to output it in DXF format as well.
I take it from SVG straight into Scam.

Might be worth a minute to check it out, the price is VERY reasonable. and the support seems top notch.

I received this email today from the MachSupportSite email system. It seemed strange. I rarely send an email though the Mach support site so I could not have exceeded a quota. The admins may want to double check the system for a hack into the site to steal email accounts info.

"Hi. This is the qmail-send program at machsupport.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

Now to be SAFE I need to resettup the account info and password,

Newfangled Solutions Mach3 Wizards / Calling an outside wizzard.
« on: June 20, 2011, 10:45:47 AM »
Seeing that NFS is not actively adding any new wizzards to the package would it be possible to CALL an outside wizzard from inside NFS. That way the user can expand what the package does. THEN the new Functions could be added to the STACK that NFS creates the Gcode from.

Then you have the best of both worlds. Agreat interaface and added value from outside Wizzards.

Just a thought, (;-) TP
