Hi,
I want to edit my screen to show a readout like that and need some help on how to calculate it or call some function to return it.
That should be very possible. Have you had a chance to experiment with the 'Screen Edit' mode yet? Amongst the things that you can do is make your
own DRO and place it on any screen in any position you want. Then you can write code and put in the the PLC script which would calculate the feed/rev,
or even the chipload if you wanted use the number of flutes from the Tool Table, and continuously update the DRO.
Using Mach4 in this way is quite a learning curve......so be prepared with patience pills and/or lots of Bourbon, but is very satisfying.....eventually!. I suspect you'll be
very
very pleasantly surprised at how flexible Mach4 is.
