F9 and F10 can start/stop the spindle? Never knew that. I'd assume the Snumber had been previously set? I'll be, fired up the pi and tried it on the sheldon, which has all motor power tied to the motion enable (F2) button, and its the same as the fwd/rev/stop icons. I'm set up for a default speed of 100 revs with the drive belt in the slowest grooves, but if I want faster I have to click on the + icon. No spindle pid in that setup, the encoder is basically the feed reference only, to make a G33.1 and G76 work. I just found that F9 toggles between fwd and stop, F10 is rev/stop and the F12 is increment up and F11 is increment down. Handier than the mouse since my mouse has only a wee bit of space to play in. Keeps either bumping its nose or backing into the 1/4" high fence that keeps most stuff from jiggling off the keyboard table. > I updated again today. No change. > > --J.

No clue why Andy's script didn't do that but in that machines case it didn't. -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
