M01 - Optional Stop With User Prompt (resolved)
Hi, Using V-Carve Pro 9, I have modified my post processor to add a M01 (optional stop) at the beginning of each toolpath that doesn't require a tool change. Now I can halt execution to screw down parts, re position clamps, whatever. Works as expected. Now; I'm trying to add notes that pop up for th...

Re: "Drill-O-Matic" converted to Acorn
Hi Gary,
Looks great. I had considered building something similar.
What are the magnetic hold downs?

Re: Not my first 3D carving...
I have I not tried it, but they have a point grid import gadget for Aspire => http://gadgets.vectric.com/regular_grid_importer.html
Perhaps you could use the Acorn probing routine to digitize the part and then import into Aspire? Probably could go with a course (quick) grid for this purpose.

Re: Tool Check With G91 Moves
Did some more testing today, and re-run the file, I can't reproduce the problem, I don't think there ever was one. I believe that I did a tool check right at the beginning of one of the long cuts. Upon resume the cutter runs the length of this cut in the air before reversing and ramping back into th...

Re: Tool Check With G91 Moves
I may have found the issue:
Intercon created the following line in the G-code:
G43 D99
G43 is tool length comp, but the argument is D99, which is the tool diameter, (in my case 1.5").
Shouldn't that be H99 (in my case that's 0.0)?
That would put me 1.5" over the work surface.

Re: Tool Check With G91 Moves
I have attached the current report and the intercon file.
I'm running the latest mfunc6FixedToolTouchOff.mac file from the forum. I made the following changes to the macro:
-Modified toolchange positions from G28 to G30P3
-Changed #106 to 3 sec.
