Mach4 General Discussion / Re: Mach4 Button OFFLINE

I'm sorry you're angry, it was not in my intentions.
I try to wait.
The evolution of Mach4 will activate this function.
Thanks again

Thanks again for your interest in the subject.
But that's not what I'm looking for.
I want to keep the axes enabled.
I want Mach4 to enter simulation mode, using the OFFLINE button!

In Mach3 with OFFLINE button the system enter in SIMULATION mode permitting me to move axis in jog, execute a program, start a spindle, without actually obtain a stepper movement or digital output activation. Just a simulation of my G-CODE program. When I disable the OFFLINE button all axis positions and digital I/O states backs to original states so I can run real job.
During OFFLINE axes must remain active to maintain position.
How to do same thing in Mach4 ?

if they electrically cut the axes lose their position, although they seem fixed, they actually lose a few millimeters (example 0.02 mm) as in a stepping motor.
because the encoder is incremental.
even if you return to the same point with the DROs before reactivating the engine, the measurements will not be corrected as before.
better to do with software, (as does Mach3)
these axes always remain electrically active, keeping the correct position.
In Mach4 I can not find a button or OFFLINE function

NO, when you turn on the electronics is all enabled, like a classic electronic stepper.
If I disengage the axle motors, I am forced to reset the axes (Reference All Axes, Home) because the DROs are in the wrong position.

thanks for help.
As a controller I have a CsLab CSMIO-IP / S
drive Leadshine EL5 AC servo
currently for spindle use VFD Toshiba VF S15 1.5Kw
My preference would be OFFLINE via software (as it is in Mach3)

Hi, thank you for the answer.
using the translator I try to synthesize phrases.

I mean working behavior on Mach3 Mill in OFFLINE mode (to make me understand).
By pressing the OFFLINE key, the controller remains perfectly functional virtually, the machine does not perform any physical movement, and no function is activated (coolant pump, etc.).
VERY IMPORTANT, the DRO axes must remain active, in a virtual way.
I programmed a lot on the machine and then simulated in OFFLINE  (with the addition of SINGLE BLOCK function), it helps me to understand if I made mistakes.
When the OFFLINE button is released, the machine must return to active mode.
VERY IMPORTANT, the DRO must return to the initial state of when OFFLINE was activated.

I hope I have been able to explain clearly, as far as I can.
I find Mach4 a great program! I hope to make a long way!

links to some tests with Mach4 Lathe.

Mach4 General Discussion / Mach4 Button OFFLINE

Hello to the whole forum!
I'm Italian, use google translate.
I'm using Mach4 Lathe.
Very nice program, although it is to be refined at some point.
Unfortunately I miss the OFFLINE button for some simulations.
This feature was present in the old Mach3, which I found very useful.
Is it possible to add this button with its function?
thank you!
