how to change the jog mode multi and step
« on: March 18, 2010, 04:21:56 AM »
when I start mach3 the job function is running perfectly I can change between the multi and step but when I load cnc file I can no longer change between the multi and step it is always in the step mode. What is wrong with this?

Are you meaning on the flyout screen? You should be able to change jog with code loaded.

Are you meaning with a MPG?  I think you only have the choice of continuous or Step if its keyboard jogging but with a MPG you have Velocity, Step and MultiStep options and all should be able to be changed when code is loaded.
Can you attach your xml please.

Ok you have a non standard screen and I am guessing that may be the issue as I have just used your xml and changed screen so I can view. I loaded the standard 1024.set and loaded some code and I could change the Jog mode from Step to Continuous.

Attach one of the files that cause the problem and I will see if I can find the problem.
