General Mach Discussion / Re: How to use Mach3 outputs?
« on: September 10, 2007, 05:31:43 PM »
I can program in Visual Basic, so I know I can catch on to VBScript. When you say "initialization string in the config menu", do you mean the "General Logic Configuration" form, where under "Startup Modals" and "Initialization String", there is a one-line textbox?
So what do you have there? Is it, "G80 M330"?
I assume I store the "txt" file macro in the "macros"/"Mach3Mill" folder on the hard drive.
Is a button a simple "gif" image or do I make it in Mach3, and how do I have it appear on the "Diagnostics" screen, and assign a macro to it?
Can you include macro file names in the G code?
