Scott,

I agree - I will also pay for the plugin.

I know how much hard work goes into creating a plugin like this, $10.00 is truly a gift   
Thank you for the support - you have helped many members, including myself, in this forum through the years.

Regards

KTM

Tangent Corner / Careful where you put your tattoo's!!!

« on: December 27, 2008, 03:31:44 AM »

While talking to a woman in her forties, we started discussing tattoo's.

I asked her weather she had any.
 
"Yes" she replied - "I have a have a horse on my right breast, I had it done 20 years ago" and showed it to me.

I looked at it and replied "are you sure it's not a Giraffe?"

Hi Dave

Do you have a AC motor spindle or a servo spindle?
Check your VFD reference voltage (0-10v) or in the case of a servo check the encoder.

Make sure that your plc comms protocol is set up as RTU 57600,8,1,N

In Mach modbus under special control select input word - 16 bits.
In ports and pins select modbus I/O support.

What CAM program and post processor are you using?
You need to set up the post processor to suit your machine or vice versa.
It would be helpful if you post a sample of your G-Code.
