that's a good idea and I'll probably do it in the meantime. However, it still does not give me independent control.

He said wish so I'm wishing... I don't expect everything or anything to happen, but if you don't ask you don't get.

3) It would be good to independently be able to control the cut speed and the travel speed while running. Specifically It would be nice to be able to quickly alter the speed of travel between cuts while the gcode is running. For example, if I have a number of small cuts very close to one another th...

Keith made the invitation for a plasma wish list in this thread http://centroidcncforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=60&t=2071&hilit=thc What is on your plasma wish list? please be as descriptive as possible when describing the CNC functionality that you are after for your plasma table. I'll take you...

I see that version 4.12 has been out for a while, but I did not see anything in the release notes addressing this issue. Any updates? I would be really happy if I could get full manual control of the Z while running the program. Not the most sophisticated, but it would work for my application. Thanks

Well you got me there. Unfortunately it seems to make more money doing it’s job than showing off for the camera... hopefully an action shot soon!

Original system ran mach3 through parallel port from windows xp. New setup uses the acorn, cnc12, and ...

Thanks again Scott! Everything works perfect now.

For sure I will post a video when I get a chance.

Thanks a ton Scott. Very impressed with what you all did there remotely. The semi auto mode works great now. Unfortunately... new problem. Full auto is not working. Program runs feed hold when it calls for a dwell after the preheat. If I cycle start it activates the cut and continues like it should,...
