you can use your keyboard num pad, I tried it a few years ago and it workedWhat do you mean, im tryn to figure out how to activate by keyboard instead of by input button,... in other words how do i make say enable work when i hit a keyboard input like spacebar or another keystroke
Hi,Which bob is $23.00 that your talking abought
or buy another BoB, or even two, for $23.00 each and have as many inputs as you could shake a stick at!

Hi,
did you check that <Enable> is a function? If it is, have you called the function using the correct
syntax:
MachEnable().......note Lua is case sensitive and the parenthesies indicate to Lua that its a function
thus
MachEnable
machenable()
and
MachEnable() are all different.
Craig
Hi,
just noticed that other examples:
if (state==1) then
ie it might be necessary to put the parenthesies around the conditional. As someone pointed out that
Lua has syntax 'that only a mother could love'.

Hi,
I am at work and so can't show you at the moment.
Open the screenload script and near the very top you'll see:
SigLib{
which is the start of the signal library table. You just need to put another entry in it.
It tell Mach 'this is the signal I'm interested in....and this is what I want you to do...'
Craig
Open the Screen Load script in the screen editor and find the line:
SigLib = {
This is the beginning of the signal table. Now try inserting the following between 2 existing entries:Code: [Select]--AW: Set cycle start if user presses key assigned to Input0
[mc.ISIG_INPUT0] = function (state)
if (state == 1) then
CycleStart()
end
end,
--AW: Set feed hold or stop if user presses key assigned to Input1
[mc.ISIG_INPUT1] = function (state)
if (state == 1) then
local hSig = mc.mcSignalGetHandle(inst, mc.OSIG_RUNNING_GCODE)
local codeRunning = mc.mcSignalGetState(hSig)
if (codeRunning == 1) then
mc.mcCntlFeedHold(inst)
--CycleStop()
end
end
end,
Use your own inputs instead of inputs 0 and 1. That's all there is to it.

Hi,Quotethought thats where you said an circled it to show where it gos?
No, thats how the screen button works.....your input just needs to call the CycleStart() function
OK where do i need to put it..., DO I ADD TO CODE IN IT OR ERASE THAT CODE AN REPLACE WITH NEW CODE?
