CVI MachStdMill (MSM) / Not able to edit g-code file

« on: November 01, 2012, 04:22:53 PM »

When trying to edit the current g-code file, I get "ERROR ON LINE 922 INTERNAL ERROR"
Any idea why this is happening?
Thanks in advance

Then just add a button to turn on a LED.  In your M codes for water and abrasive, look at that LED.

Could you expand on that? Would we modify the visual basic that operates the m codes? Would we add the button in the screen designer or will a hotkey turn on & off an led? Thanks

I am not sure if z inhibit will work as I only use x & y.

Is there a way to "dry run" a program? Meaning run the g codes with the spindle (waterjet water) and coolant (abrasive flow) disabled?
Sometimes we need to trace cut the program once to make sure we have it positioned on the sheet correctly. Also is there a hotkey to turn on the spindle and a hotkey for the coolant? This would be handy for scrap cutting.
Thanks in advance.

Do you have to call up cv mode from the g-code or is it on all the time?

Actually, after looking at it closer, it faults on rapid moves if I hit "stop". I am using the Machblue screenset. Just the drive or drives trip. Mach does not fault and has no message.
