General Mach Discussion / Communication Mach3 external software
« on: May 15, 2015, 04:19:06 AM »
Hello everybody,
I am using mach 3 to control a CNC Router which will be used to verify the precision of an optical tracking system.
The workflow I hope to achieve is this:
1) CNC Router moves to position defined in the G-Code and stops.
2) Mach3 sends a signal to another software “position was reached”.
3) Mach3 waits for a signal from the external software to start reading the next G-code line and move to a new position.
Can anyone please help me achieve this?
At the moment I am not using any external commands (Cooling, Tool exchange etc…)
I would be very happy, if anyone helps me
Cheers,
Mark
