Art,
Would it be possible to configure Mach2 so that X axis and one
theoretical axis (Y) could be triggered just as Z axis is triggered
for threading? If that was possible then I could run two separate
Mach2 applications with one being the Z axis motion and the second
one being X and Y (theoretical axis) with motion coordinated to the
first application by the index pulse from the first. I would then be
able to turn shapes other than round such as elliptical piston skirts
and camshafts.
