Rapid OverRide
« on: July 22, 2010, 09:48:10 AM »
Why do none of the lathe screen sets available have the ability to change the rapid speed. Only Feed Rate and Jog%, am I missing something here? I'd like to have what the Mill screen has with the slider. I don't really like going at full speed when running a part for the first time. Help?

Two things you can do, first is make sure on General Config page that rapid is locked to FRO, that way when you reduce the FRO by 50%, or whatever, the rapid will also be reduced by that amount.
If you prefer total control then you can use one of the screen designer programmes and add a slider for Rapid  to your screen.
