I can not find this anywhere. I have a macro that uses GetVar(2002). What value
is it getting?

Feature Requests / Re: jog and run from closest

Yes and it works great.
What I want to do is from my pendant jog to a location near the cut that was interrupted (broke bit, lunch break or ) and run from the closest line of gcode. I do not want to go back to the computer and scroll back through the file to find the point I wish to run from.

I am not totally out in left field on this one. I know that at least one router manufacturer is able to do this.
If I am running a job and the bit breaks, after replacing the bit if I jog to the last area that had a cut I want Mach to start at the closest line to where the machine physically is.

Feature Requests / jog and run from closest

I do not know if this is possible but it would be nice to be able to jog to an area near a toolpath and then do a run from here instead of scrolling back through the program.

Try something like this.

If (GetUserLED (1135) = 1) Then
SetUserLED (1135, 0)
Else
SetUserLED (1134 , 1)
End If

PoKeys / shift

Boris,
If I use an input for shift will it affect other inputs like the shift button on a keyboard?

Boris,
I am using a joystick for the x and y. I want to use a spring return pot for the z axis.

Boris,
Analog input only gives the choices of X, Y , RotX, RotY and Throttle. No Z axis.
