Re: Was RC11 lathe sucess! - now parse errors
Steve: Found it. When a file loaded, it was running the macro thread in the backround without waiting for the previous one to finish. If a second was started while the first was running, an error

Re: Dumb question of the day
Bob: Good point. In lathe, you never really know which axis needs to move first as a safety move. Depends on if your doing inside or outside work. There is no safety on the next version of Turn. If

Re: stepper stall (to Art)
Isak: This is probably because you have Constant Velocity turned on. When you run with backlash, CV is not possible on all systems. Usually, you have to turn it off, then the acceleration and

Re: Dumb question of the day
The safe move on a turning machine is the Z axis, same as a milling machine. You move the carriage away from the chuck axially(+Z). If you moved the X axis with a drill buried in the work piece, you'd

Re: stepper stall (to Art) please ignore, I found the problem, Thanks..
It has to do with the const velocity/exact stop. Thanks, Isak.

stepper stall (to Art)
Hi, When I enable backlash the steppers sometimes stalls. The problem arises when a continous move is made on one axis (suppose X) and in the middle of the move the Y axis changes direction. This

Re: Was RC11 lathe sucess! - now parse errors
Steve: I've only been able to see it twice. It locked me up for 5 minutes the first time, and then 100 boxes appeared saying "Parse error". This tells me that somehting is looping and calling the

Re: Was RC11 lathe sucess! - now parse errors
Thanks Art - The more I think about it the better Safe_X sounds, done the same as mill as a persistent entry box would give you the chance of setting the distance or having it turned off, as

This condition does not normally occur in a properly tuned OK, it's like I supposed. No problem with this. Mariss @ gecko is an excellent vendor and supports the since I already had a deal with Mariss

Re: Mach2 / Sound Logic PC@Route Model M1 setup
Does the LED stay on with the Printer cable disconnected from the PC? If so there may be a problem on the card. If not then do you have the proper step pin mapped and IS IT ACTIVE LOW (checked).

Re: Dumb question of the day
Hi John: Goto Z's, is to make all axis goto zero. Goto Safe_z makes the Z axis move to the clearance plane (Safe_Z). This will be renamed to clearance Plane in the near future so that in Turn, it will

Re: Mach2 / Sound Logic PC@Route Model M1 setup
Hi Bob: I don't know whats going on with the LED always on on the board, but don't expect to see the step LED's blink. They are blinking, but only 1-10 us long in the on condition. This is too short

Dumb question of the day
What are the buttons "Goto Z's CTRL O" and "Goto Safe Z" supposed to do and how do you configure them? I am working on a set of 640x480 screens to use with my Sherline 5400 mill and at that

Re: RC11 lathe sucess!
