Shuttle Xpress problems
« on: November 15, 2025, 11:03:38 PM »
Having some problems with my Shuttle Express. Installed the plugin and configured it. It's kind of working, but not exactly how I want it to. Pretty sure it's because additional settings need to be changed. Which is why I'm asking for help.

When I jog with the large wheel it moves slow. It's a variable wheel, but even all the way still moves very slow.

Set one of the buttons to rapid ++. When pressing it the machine moves at the speed I would like.

The next problem is jogging with the inner wheel. It works, but is also suffering from the slow jog speed.

With it set to jog at .001mm it works fine. Going up in the step size causes problems. It will slowly jog until it reaches the set distance. There's no stopping it.

Also having a problem running macros. Created a macro and saved it as m1.m1s. Put it in Mach3Mill directory.

It doesn't work. In the 1024 screenset it displays that the custom macro ran.

Thought there was a problem with my macro. It was a test, so it might not be perfect. Copied a macro from a button that I know works. That didn't work either.

May have found the solution to the problem of macros not working. Changed it to m200.m1s. Now it's running.

It's a macro to set the jog increments. Also set it to change the led to the amount selected. That seems to be working fine.

Now there's another problem. After the macro runs the jog wheels do nothing.
