Change options for combined jog axis
« on: February 18, 2011, 10:20:24 AM »
In machscreen I have axis choices that say

Jog X and A axis together (foam machines)
Jog Y and A axis together (foam machines)

The second choice should refer the Y and B axis

I believe this was intended to drive a 4 axis foam machine cutter to jog in a 2 axis functionality.

This would be awesome but the axis ref needs to change.

This is great control software - Thanks

I'm not really good with VB programming but maybe you could use something like swap axis.

Look at page 98 of the VB programming in the attached PDF

I guess I could try and make a work around for this.  On page 120 of the document you linked me to - it actually has the correct axis referenced.  Codes 354 & 355 say they should ref Y-B ++ and Y-B--, unfortunately in mach - the codes actually move Y-A++ and Y-A--.  This looks like it was intended to be implemented correctly but was inputed as a "typo"
