Re: Can't use X10 or X100 on MPG if probe is setup on inputs

wjh308,

I see you are on V5.06, there may of been a fix for NC probe and WMPG in V5.08. Save a backup and try installing the current V5.08 and see if that helps the situation.

Re: CNC12 v5.08 ATC wizard issue

Hello AVP, 1. Try setting the Custom M6 macro in use setting under the CNC Control Preferences page instead of the ATC Menu. Or the ATC Menu one, which ever one you have not been trying before. 2. It appears the wizard is writing the value of the Z height flyover properly, but not reading it back in...

Thanks for pointing out the issues and providing a corrected PLC, it was indeed missing those critical pieces of logic. Should be corrected in future CNC12 V5.09+ when available.

Re: Home to limit switches.

In addition to what keith sent earlier, You need to set it to "Automatic Homing" so that CNC12 will try to seek to switches. In addition, since limitall isnt quite considered a homing input for the wizard, the cncm.hom file will need to be manually modified for this to work, so select &quo...

I tried adding G4 P1.5 to the next line under the M95 /4 and get no pause. Hello, Can you create a new fresh report and send it so we can see the modifications you made. Adding a G4 should cause a small pause. Taking your earlier provided report, i modified both your M10 and M11 with a G4 of 1.5 se...

Re: ATC functional, but gets some pockets wrong

Good morning, When provided with the updated macro, I tried it immediately on Nov 13. Then I tried the latest 5.07.r15 on Nov 21 when it was provided to me on this forum. Neither worked. One caveats: V5.07.r15 sets Param 160 to 1. Then it fails asking for a tool0position.cnc file. I set parameter 1...
