Mach4 General Discussion / Re: Gcode run from mach but cat run from Api c#

« on: January 04, 2020, 05:44:06 PM »

i check again all day for test i cant find any different between the files that run from api and the file that cant
only one different
the file cant run from api(i mean not run the m function only run the gcode movement) size is 17kb
the files that can run was much more smaller
is that can be that the API cant use well when i have that size files?(17Kb its not so big only 1120 lines)
thanks

« on: January 01, 2020, 02:00:09 AM »

 even mach is step/dir that mean no real feedback position need from servopack
but all industrial machines  ,always show the real position ,and also check the following status
for example if driver in alarm and some one move by hand...etc..
is some one try implement that in mach?

do you mean the machine not cut diagonal?
if so its not controller problem i think its noise problem
be sure shield of the servo connect directly to ground(not only 4th wire as chines do)
we even not use the gantry as master slave  ,can connect them together just one motor need change direction on servo pack
