What do "one hit lathe" buttons do?

Re: Problem with output of lathe spindle analog signal

Some more information From what I can tell the two trim pots on either side of the dip switches don't do anything when I turn them. The VFD responds as it should to the voltage level and the voltage as measure at the ALLIN1 terminals does not change when I unhook the connection to the VFD (VFD is no...

Re: Problem with output of lathe spindle analog signal

Thanks, I tried every combination of the dip switches but nothing works. The output of the ALLIN1 does go between 0 and 10v but it is all over the map in comparison to the commanded (gcode) speed. I have made a plot from actual values that I observed

Problem with output of lathe spindle analog signal <resolved, incorrect PLC program>

This forum has been a great resource for me, it has helped me set up the dual handwheels on the the flatbed lathe I am retrofitting in a way that I am pretty happy with.

Re: new one hit buttons question

Where can I find out more about the one hit buttons. Is there somewhere where I can download the macros that make these one hit functions work?

No pendant or touch screen how do I toggle MPG

I broke the touch screen but I want to test the encoder I am using for the handwheel. I don't see a hotkey to toggle the MPG, do I need to edit the PLC program to have a way of toggling the MPG?
