Macro Mach4 for THC CAP04
« on: June 18, 2019, 07:03:07 PM »
Hi Friends

In our business had been using THC CAP04 module by Agelkom since 4 years now,  but now with the new Mach4 the things has change, do you have a script or macro that replace the previous version for the module CAP04 on Mach3?

Previous Macro for mach3

Dim PierceHeight, PierceTime, Z_Min_Height, Z_Pos

PierceHeight = GetUserDRO(1000)
PierceTime = GetUserDRO(1001)

Z_Min_Height= GetUserDRO(1003)
code "G31Z"&(Z_Min_Height) // This will allow to continuously follow the curve on cutting material
While IsMoving()
Wend

Z_Pos = GetDro(2)
code "G1Z"&(Z_pos+PierceHeight) // This will allow to rise Piercing level
While IsMoving()
Wend

code "G4P1"
DoSpinCW()
code "G4P"&(PierceTime) // Wait for Piercing. Config>GeneralConfig> check G04 Dwelli in ms  box


I will apreciate


Thanks

Hi,
I'm no expert on plasma but I believe that all the functionality required for THC is ALREADY contained within Mach4 Plasma
screenset, ie you don't need a macro, its already there as a module.

That is right. You need to start with the default plasma profile. It uses the correct screen, macros, etc. So, copy the default plasma profile and save the new as something unique. Configure that new unique profile for you machine. Should be all there is to it.
