ftp://anonymous:guest@machsupport.com/Mach4/DevlopmentVersions/Mach4Hobby%20Installer-4.2.0.3112.exe1) PMC editor is now included. This is basically a ladder logic graphical script/code builder. If you like ladder logic, you should love PMC editor. No programming knowledge is needed for using the PMC editor. A PMC Editor help file is also included in the Docs folder.
2) Default profiles and screens for lathes and routers are now included.
3) Canned cycles wizards for lathe. ***These were donated by MachMotion and they have done a great job. You will want to check these out.***
4) Default screens have had significant updates (mainly to the scripts).
5) Functional cycle timer added to default screens.
6) A TouchOff module has been added (clicking the touch button will open it). Once you open it, read the tool tips that pop up when hovering over GUI elements for more details.
7) Fixed a few openGL bugs that were present in tangential mode.
8 ) A CV feedrate wizard is now included. At the moment, there are 179 settings for it. 1 - 179 degrees. Enter the max feedrate you want the machine to travel at for each angle.
9) Updated installer and uninstaller. Wording in some dialogs were edited to help users avoid mistakes while installing. You can also deselect any control types you wish not to install. The new uninstaller (which is installed when you run the new installer) should not delete existing license, custom screens, custom profiles or custom shortcuts. ***Note: The uninstaller you have now will so be sure to back everything up before running the installer***. Desktop shortcuts added for selected machine types. On the finish page you can deselect launching the Mach loader when finished.
