Mach 3 Settings

[Joey Jarrard]

Here is a short video I did on the CV setting in Mach 3. I have noticed some talk about this and wanted to share this with some of the new ones.

Thanks Joey. Also, new users should remember that the code generated by Aspire and Vcarve is incremental code. Unlike what was shown in the video, the IJ mode default in Mach3 is absolute. This will cause problems in many cases. Using the same configuration screen, the user should make sure that the IJ mode is set to incremental.

An alternative to setting this mode is for the post processor to insert the code G91.1 into the header (thanks Guy). The version that I have for the Stinger II and Mach, however, doesn't do this. It's not a problem provided that you have the configuration screen in Mach3 set correctly as above.

Richard,

Don't thank me, thank the manual. :D

The only thing I did was read the manual and provided the theoretical portion to solving the problem. You provided the empirical part by running it on your machine.
