Mach4 General Discussion / Re: 4612 Build

On the probing tab there isn't a DRO for entering the probe radius. Inside the mcProbing module it writes the radius to the profile after doing a calibration then should display it in 'droCalcProbeRad'  but this doesn't exist on the screen.. or at least within the Probing section

I can't answer your question but Mach4 has a remote GUI that you can run on another PC and view DRO's etc.. It's Mach4GUIR.exe in the Mach4Hobby folder. You just have to specify the IP address of the PC you want to connect in the 'Target' of the desktop short. You can even use a different screenset to the one running the machine.

Mach4 General Discussion / Re: LUA Script Error preventing start
« on: March 06, 2021, 09:06:08 AM »
You can force mach to open directly into the screen editor which will allow you to correct the error. Right click on your desktop shortcut that loads your Mach4 profile and select properties, in the Target box you should see /p "your profile name here" after this just add /e.

So it would look something like this..
Code: [Select]
"C:\Mach4Hobby\Mach4GUI.exe" /p Mach4Mill /e

Then just double click the shortcut as you would normally

What version of Mach are you using? Looking at the change log there were some recent changes to how this works..

Code: [Select]
4564 - 4570
Core: Change run timer characteristics to:
      1. clear upon reset
  2. clear upon file load.
  3. clear upon rewind/run (M99)
  4. clear upon cycle start after rewind.
  5. clear upon cycle start in MDI.

Mach4 General Discussion / Re: Where to Find LuaCall.txt File?

The 'Mach4CoreAPI.chm' file in the docs folder has all API calls

These messages were added in a recent plugin update. To solve the 'Mainloop tick interval out of range' error I had to reduce the polling frequency in the hicon plugin from 100 to down to something like 75. For the Warning message I'm not sure this is an issue as the loop interval is less than the polling frequency - this tells me everything is being done in the right amount of  time.

I haven't seen the StepGen error before, maybe linked to the above issue with polling frequency being too high? Was it a following error limit? Do you have the feedback set to 'Undefined' in the hicon plugin?

The easiest way to check this is to go into your machine.ini profile and search for 1142. Looks like its for the spindle forward output

I believe the issue you are seeing is because you are using G92. If you explain what you are trying to do with the offsets etc. someone may be able find an alternative method to achieve it

Mach4 General Discussion / Re: X and Y axis homing in the wrong direction

You can set the homing direction in the 'Homing/SoftLimits' tab in the Control Configuration. It is the first column
