Hello Zafar
I have buy more as 4 pokeys and till now I use them as a mormal pedrant en from one I ise the anolog input to control the speed of my EDM wire machine.
But now I gone use the LCD display on it but I gone use 4 axis X Y V and U as later maybe a C axis.
But I like to use my LCD better and not the first 10 charaters of the display, so I like to put also other information on the display example speed and from the jog the step 0.1 0.001 are 0.001 I was look of expamles how it is writen in the Marcopump till now I have found not match how to do it what words to use and when to use ; . , and it is always about the details.
Did you find some examples?
Are how did you write you marcopump
greetings Benny
Benny,
Here is my macropump. I am sure you'll get some idea from it for your LCD display.
If getoemled(800) Then
setuserlabel(201, "EStop Button Pressed")
setuserlabel(202, "Emergency Mode Activ")
setuserlabel(203, "....Press Reset....")
setuserlabel(204, "
www.karacnc.com ")
Else
setdro(21,getoemdro(2202)/1023*250)
setoemdro(74,getoemdro(2203)/1023*250)
setuserlabel(201,"X"& Format(getdro(0)," 0000.000;-0000.000")&" F"&Format(getoemdro(818)," ####00"))
setuserlabel(202,"Y"& Format(getdro(1)," 0000.000;-0000.000")&" FRO"&Format(getdro(21)," #00.0"))
setuserlabel(203,"Z"& Format(getdro(2)," 0000.000;-0000.000")&" SOv"&Format(getoemdro(74)," #00.0"))
setuserlabel(204, getuserlabel(101))
End If
I am interested in Wire EDM setup of yours. Are you using Mach for it? How are you handling the wire reversing routine? I have a couple of Chinese Wire EDM's which have given me excellent performance over the years (one of them is 16 years old). If some day their control acts up on me then I'd like to give it a retrofit with Mach.
