The traced route might not be exactly the cut route because of delays in
updating the
screen. The display is not updated in real time AFAIK. I have noticed that when
doing very
small work with G61 or G61.1 which are the same.

I found that I changing the maximum acceleration on the Z axis solved
the problem. Or perhaps it was the maximum Z velocity.

Greetings,
I am trying to calibrate my shiny new machine. I have opted to use
timing belts instead of leadscrews.
My servos have 512-count optical encoders driven by Gecko 320's. I
have all the pins set up, and are working nicely!
The servos are geared down 4 to 1 (four servo revolutions
If I only have G61.1 in the ini file, the sim shows a significantly curved
path. Putting G61.1 in the gcode file will trace the path as expected.
I only tried it in a sim version. I wasn't game to run it on the real
machine while it was drawing curved paths. The particular path I noticed it

The ini file RS274NGC_STARTUP_CODE only gets executed once (on startup of
the machine).
If you run any programs, then the codes in the program (or the effects of
M2) will alter the startup state.
I think it has been suggested (but afaik not implemented yet) to have some
prerun codes, which get

My question is, what would I put for the Leadscrew pitch in the Axis
Configuration Page? I assume for the Pulley Teeth I would enter 4:1.
It will depend on how many teeth are on your axis belt pulleys, and the pitch.
Stepconf will just put steps x
What you need to figure out is how far the axis moves per rotation. For example
if your
motor turns 4 times to turn the big pulley once and the table travels 2 inches
then it is 2
turns per inch. If it is 200 pulses per revolution and 10 microsteps then you
have
200 x 10 x 2 steps per inch.
That doesn't sound anything like what I saw. It is always a good practice to
place needed
parameters at the beginning of each file because you never know how the last
file might
have left the system configured.
Can you pastebin the file and post a link? I forgot are you running the latest
Frank,
For some reason this is getting ignored... check your MDI window after you load
and you will
see G64 not G61.1 as the active G codes.

If stepconf's questions to calculate SCALE don't fit your situation,
then perform the calculation yourself to get steps/mm or steps/in.
Enter this value in motor steps per revolution, and enter 1 for
microstepping, pulley, and leadscrew pitch. This will let you use the
number you calculated

You can choose with G7/G8, I believe.
I don't know if there's any way for G-code to tell which mode is active

Apparently the PC was lost, along with the software. Supposedly unused.
According to google, this model was introduced in 2000. Approximately 300
lbs.
Thought someone would be interested in it.

One of the things I have not yet learned is how to get the most swarf from a
given milling tool. I have a tendency to go slow, so the swarf is sometimes
so thin it settles like snow flakes when it is blown away from the work.
Obviously this is wasting the cutting edge of the tool,
