Mach4 General Discussion / Soft HOLD in Mach4 Lathe.

« on: August 03, 2019, 06:01:43 AM »

Hello.
would it be possible to change HOLD key behavior in Mach4 ??
I ask this because a soft STOP would be necessary.
the reason for this request is that I lose the synchronism of the axes causing me error in the plugin.
I'm using the LATHE version.
CSMIO IP S. hardware
thank you.

No sorry.
I didn't make any changes, I just left the LED.
I intended to parallelize a buzzer with the LED.
the two objects have different power supplies (led / buzzer) and I didn't know how to do it, so I left it unchanged.

Mach4 General Discussion / Re: RPM variation with G76 cycle use

« on: February 04, 2019, 03:49:25 PM »

it was just an example, to figure out if I have wrong settings on Mach4, or has very specific rules.
what seems strange to me is that if I make several empty cycles without giving any increase, the thread is slowly ruining.
this did not happen with the tests done with Mach3.
Am I wrong or is it Mach4?
I asked just to compare the results with other users.

Mach4 General Discussion / RPM variation with G76 cycle use

« on: February 03, 2019, 04:04:50 PM »

Hello
I noticed a particularity when using the G76 thread cycle.
Give an example
I do a thread at 800 RPM,
and then following various problems I decided to change the number of shifts from 800 to 400, I noticed that Mach4 no longer takes the correct step, so as to ruin the first cycle of passage.
is this condition for you too, or do I have the wrong settings?
I ask, because when I tried Mach3 Turn before using Mach4 Lathe, it seemed more stable in the thread, even though I changed the number of revolutions while running the loop did not ruin the thread.
this is the link to the video of when I tried Mach3 Turn threading and sync

Mach4 General Discussion / warning! in Mach4 Lathe G1 with value 0 (zero) is equivalent to a G0!

« on: February 03, 2019, 02:33:43 AM »

as a title, a small distraction in writing a gcode, it can cost dear with Mach4 Lathe!
as image, I omitted the value in G1 writing F0.
this was interpreted as a G0 for Mach4!
result ... I destroyed the tool !!!

Hello,
It is a period when I open Gcedit this message appears to me.
I do not understand what I have to do to eliminate it.
Note:
it only makes me on that computer, I tried to uninstall and install Mach4, but to no avail.

OK, as you say it works.
the problem is that until you press ENABLE, the M8 function is active, so the pump works.
I would like Mach4 to start with the pump off.
