General Mach Discussion / Re: Mach3 help please / Steps jerking
« on: January 27, 2015, 03:41:21 PM »
Note .
 
 This only happens with large Gcodes loaded into Mach3

I have tried changing Kernel speeds. Maybe not enough video Ram in the PC ??

Anyone ?

General Mach Discussion / Mach3 help please / Steps jerking
« on: January 27, 2015, 03:05:11 AM »

 My 3 axis CNC works fine with Mach3. I had a 3 axis USB movement card and I have changed it to a standard 5 axis BOB as I thought there was a problem with the first board. But It still exists.
 If I load a large Gcode into Mach3, when I try to toggle the axis or zoom in on Mach3's graphic table display, the stepper motors slow down steps to almost individual steps. I ran a latency test on my PC, which the results were good. ( servo / max int 1011675, max jitter 15071  // Base max int 42076 // max jitter 19317 )

Any Ideas Please ?

Ok.. Done it.  In Mach3. Open the settings tab. Top left hand box called Fast feed overide. It has 0.00 in the box. I changed the numbers to 1000 and left the tab without pressing enter. Now It goes 5x as fast when not cutting material

My X and Y motors are set at 4000 units per minute. Z is set at 2000

Why does the X and Y travel at only 1000 when doing a safe Z move (moving onto the next position)

When the machine is actually milling material the X and Y are traveling at 1500, but the G0 is always at 1000

Cant I get the Rapid feed rate G0 to move at 1500 or even 4000 ??

Are you using the DEMO version of mach3 or is it registered?

Do you have the LPT driver loaded ?

(;-) TP

I have the reg version Mach3.

I dont use the LPT port.  I use a USB Bob.

DId you run a g31 and do a trip or let it run to the end point

M40 (fill in the blanks)
G31 X10  F30  (trip it or let it run until the end)

Even if I edit the code and put in the M41, it saves nothing.

OK Just tested it , You DO need to add the ext, something changed there from the past as the window SHOWS you that "it "should ADD the ext ".TXT " automatically.

Now as to the empty file mach3 will only save the data IF YOU CLOSE the file with M41.

The M40 creates the file BUT It only writes to the file when M41 is used to close the file.

Hope that helps, (;-) TP

Ok... I am trying that now. Mach3 always ends in M30. So I am editing the g code and changing it to M41

Oh dear.... File still empty !

OK when the M40 save as window pops up there are 2 things you need to do.

1. Look at thetop of the window to SEE WHERE it is being saved.
2 JUST type in the file name NOT the extension (.txt).

I have never seen the M40 NOT create a file . NOW I have saved it to somewhere other than where i THOUGHT I had saved it to.

Just a thought, (;-) TP

Thanks
 I done exactly that the first few times. They were saved on the desktop. When I looked at the file properties, it stated "FILE" and 0 Bytes.

At teh beginning of the Gcode file you should see a M40 line. Is it there. When you start the Gcode does it ASK for a file name ? Does a freshly created Points file have the correct date / time assigned to it?

The process works here I just tested it.

(;-)TP

Yes it has an M40 line. yes it asks for a file name. Havnt looked at the date. First I named the file test.txt, and after I named the next one test.tap  . neither worked. Running Windows pro XP.
