Why Mach3 "Pause" for split second on every G-code line ?
« on: October 15, 2010, 08:33:16 PM »
When I cut circle or Z radial cut, I always get Pause for 1/50 second before reading the next line ?

I create the G-code from Mastercam X3, I already install the Post Processor.

I check the Mach3 setting, but nothing wrong... or I miss something ?

You are probably in Exact Stop mode. Try using CV mode.

General Config, or use G64 at the start of your code.

G61 to change back to Exact Stop.

I add G64 at the start it works great.
but how to change the Gen Logic Menu setting to make it works ?

I try to check un check the "Stop CV on angles, uncheck and check the G100 still dosn't work.
can you specify the parameter which one should be check or not ? and what degree should I put ?


now what it the different if I use CV mode or Stop mode ?
I only cut wood (router).

I really appreciate our help

Yes I read that before, but I can not set on the general logic config to get the same result like if I add G64.

what I want is getting the result like G64 but with changing the parameter on the General Logic Config setting.
I still get the stop motion whatever I change the setting.

Are you changing this? You want to select Constant Velocity, but turn off the other options. Here's how mine is set.

If you get excessive corner rounding, you can try setting the angle setting to 89 or 90 and enabling it. Also turn off the 2 CV options on the settings page, CV distance and CV feedrate.

the other way to do it is to put G64 in your initialisation string, also under general config.
