Yeah, safe moves always are good, especially as for first time we made so powerful machine. Spindle power is enormous.

Oh, and some visual stuff would be great next to buttons, to see witch one is pressed.

Hi. Sorry about pictures, not using forums a lot. Unfortunally i cannot edit my post to fix this.

Also thank you for button advice.  I just don`t know, how use those scripts. Where i should put filenames and file path in? Actually i know nothing about it. I was struggling with M6 script until i found one in samples.

The way to do that is to have a button call a Gcode file, three buttons, three files. To my knowledge the Gcode interpreter can only have one
active Gcode job. So if you hit button #2 the code which had been running will be closed and the file associated with button #2 loaded and then run.

How this can be done, please? Gcode files will be changing at the beginning  till we happy with results. After that it will be semi mass production.

My target is to machine a part from 3 sides. The jig is coming up, to clamp three parts on the bed the same time. But each part is being machined at different stage. Ideally i would like to have three buttons on the screen: Do Stage 1, Do Stage 2, Do Stage 3. So  i dont know, can small batches of code classify 2000 lines. Also i have to admit, that i am hardware person, and absolutely noob in lua coding.

Hi. Me again. Looking for any advice, how to create three buttons on the screen, and when i click any of them each one executes different g-code. Thank you.

Thank you. Works well. Now i have to learn Chinese, to figure out how to get reversing to work. Manual for the driver is terribly translated.
