Mach4 General Discussion / Re: MERROR_NOT_NOW from GcodeExecuteWait() API Call
« on: February 04, 2018, 03:08:35 PM »
Well I found my error that was frustrating the tool height measurement. I had requested a probe move that would have taken Z below the minimum soft limit. Once I fixed that, the routine worked repeatedly and well, whether called from a screen button in the Idle state, from a screen button during an M6 File Run state, or from within the M6 macro itself. The macro was held using mcSignalWait.
I am beginning to think that MERROR_NOT_NOW is simply a catch-all message, meaning that as a diagnostic aid it is next to useless. I say this because the same error was produced when attempting to run the button script when Mach4 was disabled.
