Hi, thank you for the answer.
using the translator I try to synthesize phrases.
I mean working behavior on Mach3 Mill in OFFLINE mode (to make me understand).
By pressing the OFFLINE key, the controller remains perfectly functional virtually, the machine does not perform any physical movement, and no function is activated (coolant pump, etc.).
VERY IMPORTANT, the DRO axes must remain active, in a virtual way.I programmed a lot on the machine and then simulated in OFFLINE (with the addition of SINGLE BLOCK function), it helps me to understand if I made mistakes.
When the OFFLINE button is released, the machine must return to active mode.
VERY IMPORTANT, the DRO must return to the initial state of when OFFLINE was activated.I hope I have been able to explain clearly, as far as I can.
I find Mach4 a great program! I hope to make a long way!
