I set my cycling to be as follows:

I never use the 1" travel, so I turned it off.

However, when I push the increment button in the jog section of Mach4, I still get it to cycle 1,0.1,0.01,0.001,0.0001. I will have two complete cycles of what I put in to the options in the image above, and then I have a full cycle of the default values, then back to my cycle. No idea where to change this.


Thanks!

I'd try entering something other than zero in all fields, repeat as necessary to fill all the fields with something. Not sure if that'll work or not.

Hi,
I filled all increment slots.

I used to have 1mm and 0.5mm as the largest increments but both caused 'after-run' where the machine would carry on even once I had stopped spinning the MPG.
This was because the increments were 'stacking up' faster than the machine could consume them. Reducing the maximum increment to 0.1mm solved it, now I can spin the
MPG as fast as I like WITHOUT suffering any, or at least any major, after-run.

This left the quandry, what do I do with those other increments? As you can see I filled them with the same numbers, just repeats. It works.

I notice that most people,and for many years that included me, would have increments spaced by a factor of ten eg 1, 0.1,0.01,0.001,0.0001.
I found those steps to coarse. If I was touching off, 0.1mm was a bit coarse and I could not define an edge with the level of accuracy that I would like, however
if I went to 0.01mm touching off seemed to take an age. A five fold increase in resolution, or even a doubling in resolution is more practical in my opinion.
