Hi Greg,
Yes, I think that is about the size of it - always follow the commands with an axis movement (which would normally always be the case anyway).
There may be some occasions when it is necessary to ‘fire’ the laser for a short period when an axis is stationary, as would be the case when using DotG in ‘dot’ mode but as it’s post processor if fully configurable a ‘dummy’ axis movement can easily be included. This was tested yesterday for the attached image and it works well.
As mentioned in the earlier post we do need the ‘turn off all outputs’ checked for safety reasons this way the laser will be turned off with ‘feed hold’, ‘limit switches triggered’, ‘estop’, M30, etc.
