Mach4 General Discussion / Re: How to use USB camera with Mach4

Did it work?
I am not sure what you are asking.
Do you want to know how to do it?
Are you asking if that is the correct code?

daniba73,

I am not a programmer either.
I make machines.
That is why as I learned how to do things I made the Mach4 LUA for dummies.
It is for us non programmers.

If you want custom things in Mach3 or Mach4 you have to learn how to do it and write it.

Start with little things and learn how.

Take some time and do it yourself.
In the long run you will probably want to change some things yourself.
Here is a link to a LUA for dummies for Mach4
It might help.
Use the one halfway down the page.

If Fusion puts in tool information that can also be a problem.
Different tools at different heights.

Mach4 General Discussion / Re: How do I upgrade from a nMotion V5.0 Mach3 USB CNC Controller to Mach4 please?

I am sure everyone has a favorite.
We use the ESS from Warp9.
Just remember this will be a lot of work rewiring all the connections and getting all the settings correct.

You will need to select a controller that has a Mach4 plugin.
Then install it and change wiring and settings as needed.
I suggest going to an Ethernet controller and not a USB one.

Under Configure/Control click on the Tools tab
Under Tool Change Type you have 2 choices.
Could it have been changed?
