open the alt i screen and jog the axis and you will see the axis brake led turn green.

to remove the power from the brake, cycle the reset button or estop and you will see it turn red

the axis brake relay will not toggle until the axis is commanded to move.

brakes are typically spring loaded so they are fail safe, this way if power is removed from the machine the brake will engage.

the brake relay is typically used to apply power to the brake coil to release the brake.

yes, i agree, but it hasn't been a high priority, i will have an offline/emulator with basic VCP function soon. offline = no PLC controller = no plc program to interact with, so its not as simple as you might think to do. emulator cycle start, cancel, , feed hold, jogging we can get working, all the...

these are are on the short term to do list

-independent second spindle Acorn6
-Y with G2/3 on the lathe
-G64 on the lathe


this one is further away.
-3D RTG like graph

open the mfunc6.mac (tool change macro located in the cncm directory) that will lead you to all the other macros that are used by M6

thanks, not all SVG functions are supported but, as you point out there are ways around that to achieve same effect.

open the tool change macros found here. and near the bottom the L command is the speed in inches per minute or mm/min

i don't know what you mean, all Z axis buttons work.

need better description or better yet make a video. (or at least some photos)

did you do what i suggested in the post above?
