I apologize for your disappointments!!!

MachMotion has had great support both email and phone and I am very surprised that you did not get an response. Somehow there is some communication traffic.

If you could email me your contact information at zealouseappex@comcast.net I will make sure they set things right.

All of the features should work flawlessly...if they do not MachMotion will fix them   

MachMotion has a large number of diffrent types of machines running the screen if they can not duplicate the issue, they would ask the customer to call MachMotion or report a step by step report of the issue via email.

GUI is = Graphical User Interface

You can write to UserLabels using script but you can not click on them with the mouse to enter in values from the Mach screen.

Acualy,
Since you are writing the code...send it to a User Label they are read only from the GUI.

Code: [Select]

myResults = "some stuff"
SetUserLabel(10, myResults)

There is documentation on how to setup Mach3 with your machine under the help section.
You will need to go into Mach3's settings and define a number of settings to the type machine you are using.

If you would like you can give Andy a call or email him and he will help you setup Mach with your machine.

Please contact Andy at:
Tel: (573) 368-7399

There is a Single Block (Button/LED) Under the sub menu "Controls".
If single step is on it will turn green and say "Single Step Active"

You can add script to the buttons, there are help video's located on the main menu on how to do this.
Simply under the sub menu you click on the edit button and add your code...you have the option to run code "On Release" or/and "On Press" of the buttons.

I have just gotten off the phone with them, your email might have gotten lost try sending another eamil, or at any time you can call them.

You can call MachMotion or email them at:

Hi Prendice,

1. Good point I will add a "Single Block" LED/Button along side of the run buttons. Now that we have a working "Feed HOld" LED this will free up room for teh "Single Step" LED.

2. Yes the time will reset this is in internal timmer in Mach and that is how Mach works with the elaps time.

3. "TSpindel" is "True Spindle Speed"

4. User DRO's- Amps: 2000, K: 2001, L: 2002, P: 2003.
You can simple click on the lables name to change what it says.

For example to change the userlabels (this will work for your X,Y,Z,A,B labels as well):
A. Click on "Amps"
B. type in something else like "Rotation"
C. then save your settings.



Here is the list of user settings:

weird...I'll have to check into that...I know you have to "publish" as AS2 Flash 8 but it should work in any player....BTW I am hoping we will have AS3 working with Mach soon.
