You can also "Graph" the job and the estimated time is shown when it's finish graphing. I have found it to be very close when running several hour 3D relief files.

thanks for the feedback, i responded inline below. Machine home not set screen "Cycle Start" icon... I know it can just be deleted from the bmp folder, but if one wanted to use their custom button, perhaps allow more than the small square size format (1x2 for example). < if user creates a...

A couple of observations and thoughts. with v4.99r4... If one happens to not have the controller on when installing, and you get to the Ethernet screen, it might be helpful to have a notification to power it on, and then possibly a "Refresh" button to refresh the adapter list. Machine home...

Hey Shawn, I recently spotted it on two Lenovo Tiny's that I have on hand for CNC-PC's, as well as a couple of home/office use laptops. The reason I spotted it was that I saw a few MPU resends on an acorn system that was powered up and just sitting idle for several hours.

I came across this setting for the Ethernet Adapter, and I don't remember seeing any mention of it in any documentation. I would assume that it could possibly be a critical setting, and the Windows default is for it to be checked on. Could Windows turn if off after some idle time or does having CNC1...

Yes, I generally turn off VM with fills, and use overscanning in LB (3% for my machine). Where VM really comes into play, is with outlines of shapes and text, so corners don't get over lased (burnt).

Set it up in the wizard (and the needed connections) yourself according to the OPT schematic. I/O used is in the chart (upper left). You can use other outputs, but assign the noted designations. Base frequency and min level to fire it is set in the wizard, then you can choose if you want velocity mo...

On the software download page is a list of pertinent information/documents, in particular, the second link for new installs and updates. Follow that and you should be good to go. https://www.centroidcnc.com/centroid_diy/centroid_cnc_software_downloads.html https://www.centroidcnc.com/centroid_diy/do...

I can save job files (g-code) from my design PC to the CNC-PC over the network without reloading another file. If I see that a file needs some edits, and the file has been stopped, I'll make the edits and post the new g-code either directly from the design program or by copy/paste to the CNC-PC. The...

I didn't know you could change those values manually like that. They may be a bit of a holdover from the old VCP, as they are only 1-12, and depending on if you have moved some around, they may not directly relate. The one I changed just happened to relate to your mfunc77/mfunc55 issue. Looking for...
