cripled code now also on text engraving
« on: January 01, 2009, 05:35:59 PM »
 ???
Please can anybody help me to get a decent code from the text maker in the mach wizards.
Strangly enough it is not working on the machine itsself (Gcode presented there is cripled) but it is not when I use the enwest newfangled zip file on the pc NOT connevted to the machine.


Any ideas?

Kind  regards,
Andre

What is wrong with the code? You mention NewFangled wizards, is there a text option in the NewFangled wizards?

 ???I was wrong with this wizard, it is not part of the newfangled ondes but is the last wizard in the wizard part of mach3.
I have seen more cripled code which means that certainly in a part of the code one code sentence is copied many times after each other which means that the program is behaving in an endless loop.
Anyone the same problems.
Can this be something electric for instance an transfer error between the pc and the mach3 execution program??

Please help since this is very annoying.

Kind regards,
Andre

Sorry Andre,
But i have never tried using that wizard.
Surely someone will chime in. Text GCODE can also be done using LazyCam
but that also may be  a challenge.

When using the Write wizard, you have to make sure you select all the options on the screen. If not, it won't work correctly.
