N00b 2.5D Question
« on: September 05, 2010, 08:53:24 PM »
Hi All -

I'm setting up a 2.5D system (manual Z-axis) and was trying to find a way to get Mach3 to pause and wait for input when it gets a command to
move in Z.  I'm sure there's got to be a configuration button somewhere obvious, but I'm totally missing it.  Can y'all give me a shove in the
right direction?

Thanks

Jamie

This has been asked quite a few times from memory and I dont think I recall seeing a way to do it in Mach. Easiest way would be to use a text editor and do a search and replace in you code, seqarch for the Z moves and replace with a M1

can you do this with a tool change instead?
