Hi Damir,

makes it a little bit clearer
put this in macropump:


act_feedrate=GetDro(13)

If (act_feedrate<3500) and (GetLed(4)=True) Then
  If Not IsActive(Input1) Then
    DoSpinCW()
  End if  
End If

  If IsActive(Input1) Then
    DoSpinStop()
  End if  


what i try to do with this:

act_feedrate=GetDro(13)
If (act_feedrate<3500) and (GetLed(4)=True) Then

is to the check the atual feedrate the 3500 must be lower than your G0 feedrate and
higher than your max G1.
try to use this to seperate between G0 and G1.

the GetLed(4)=True is to check that a g-code programm ist started.

Hello,

--Could we use M code in the G-code to activate the script, for example M3 activate script, M5 deactivate script (or we can create some other M code),
--because we are in the script from before had a problem because she started immediately as soon as start Mach3?
--thanks
--Damir

please try to explane what is the real clue behind this fuctionality,
because for the moment i am not that i understand 100% the thing.

maybe a snipped of your g-code wold help.

Ok seems not to be so easy,

act_feedrate=GetDro(18)

If (act_feedrate<1500) and (GetLed(4)=1) Then
  If Not IsActive(Input1) Then
    DoSpinCW()
  End if 
End If

  If IsActive(Input1) Then
    DoSpinStop()
  End if

Hi,

something like this might work:

act_feedrate=GetDro(18)

If (act_feedrate<1500) and (GetLed(4)=1) Then
  If Not IsActive(Input1) Then
    DoSpinCW()
  End if 
  If IsActive(Input1) Then
    DoSpinStop()
  End if 
End If

Hi,

macropump can help:

If IsActive(Input1) Then
  DoSpinStop()
End If

General Mach Discussion / Re: axis move wrong in mach 3

« on: April 15, 2015, 03:38:40 AM »

Hi,

i think it is based on your step resolution (but dont know 100%)

320 steps per mm means a resolution of 0,003125mm

Mach can only do one step, so if i does one step more:

0,0094 + 0,003125 = 0,012525 or in the other way

a move of 0.01 would be 3.2 steps

0,250 would be 8 step's and so on.

Modbus / Re: My experiments with Mach3 ModBus and Arduino, Part I

« on: April 13, 2015, 02:29:25 AM »

Hi, aluplastvz

quote from the first post:

Equipment:
1. Arduino board (I using Arduino Duemilanove but you can use any other Arduino board)
2. PC with Windows XP and Mach3 because software who I using for monitoring ModBus communication no support new versions Windows.
3. Software's
  - Arduino IDE

i do not have any code, and i am not a Arduino guy.

how to increase the number of inputs

just use an other Arduino for example Mega2560 has 54 digital input/output pins .
