Mach4 General Discussion / pmc / plc

« on: February 25, 2019, 04:45:04 PM »

I did a pmc program that I thought was very simple.
The attached lua program is what it made.
I made 2 dros in my screen.
One read the register for ESS/Encoder0
The other read register iRegs0/EncRep
Then I made the attached file.
I got nothing.
Does the PMC Editor actually make a PLC program?
I need this to run constantly so want to use a PLC.

Thanks,
Bill

SwiftyJ,

In Mach3 I did a lot of customization.
ATC, Camera etc.
Plus I also want to do some different things that should be able to do in Mach4 programing language.
I just need a better understanding of how the programing works so I can do the same for Mach4

I will definitely look at that code.
I have other code i will need to write so if you have any idea why mine doesnt keep the change in the dro it would be helpful to me.
