Morning chaps, What I have done for slowing down in the corners for the Amada Lasers that we have is to put a User Event #C1=1 at the beginning of the appropriate element to turn on the G9 codes for exact stop. Then when I want the G9 exact stops off, I place another User Event #C1=0 at the end of the element. In the SMF file I set Q.362 #C1=0: as blank and Q.363 #C1=1: G9
Crude I'm sure, but it works. With the help of some macro .mcl files it's a relatively easy process. -----Original Message----- From: John Gent [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, November 13, 2000 11:03 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [mfg-smartcam] Adv Fab Slow Down Morning Laurie, Yep, unfortunately this is one of the things that I had scoped for later releases. I did, however, create a PCB to fill in until the functionality was in place. I didn't release it because I didn't like how much it changed your geometry and it was also error prone. It also worked with amlaser.tmp. What it did was split back user picked corners and added user commands to call the different sections. I can dig around and try and find it if you'd like, but like I said, it was kind of error prone.
