Mach 7.2 bug bug???
|
Chuck Meckem
Hello gents,
I think I found a bug and or I a doing something wrong. Run from here..line#..does not seem to funcation correctly. I goto line number I wish to start from (either typed in the box or scrolled to) and push runfrom here button. Program rewinds itself and starts from beginig. So... I tryed it a diffrent way...Instead of pushing run from here button I just went to my line I wanted to start from and hit the run button. A screen comes up asking location and and safe z. Numbers in boxes had values from line i wanted to start from....Seems ok to me so i hit ok and run. Program rewinds and wants to start from begining of program. My conclusion is that this feature may not be working right. Any thoughts...? |

Does it actually start cutting or does it just run through the lines until it gets to the line you specified? It seems to me, and I may be wrong, that Art posted a message a few days ago about the "Run from Here" button and the behavior of that button.

Ref the manual 6.1.7.6:

As described in the manual, it should start at the beginning and run through all the previous code in order to develop the correct modal state. It should not actually run the machine, just run through the code. Once it gets to that point, you will be prompted to do the actual start. Note to John, Can we get a big bold manual version number on the front page of the next release? I don't know how to describe which version of the manual I'm talking about if I quote chapter & verse.

You are correct, page 60, paragraph 6.1.7.6 says that is exactly what it should do. I have the latest copy of the manual, the 7/22/2003 version. John Guenther 'Ye Olde Pen Maker' Sterling, Virginia -----Original Message----- |
