Re: Eagle, pcb to g-code, Mach3 and Autoleveler

... I came across this thread on MachSupport forum: https://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,6797.0.html which seems to describe the problem of writing DRO's to a file and of avoiding the repeats. Read page 1 and 2, copy and paste the macro at the end of the thread to a new file e.g. PROBE...

Just to inform, I did like steamer described in his post http://www.cncsoftwaretools.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=349 and it works perfectly !! Thank you very much !! I also think this solution should be implemented in next edition of AL software. For many of us who use NcUsbPod.dll driver. USB ver...

Re: Eagle, pcb to g-code, Mach3 and Autoleveler

Yesterday I tried to run autoleveled .tap file from pcb-gcode without G82 (spot drill holes) command. After "performed" autoleveling, machine tried just like toolpath suggested, it went all the way up in Z . So I cancelled the job. Obviously G31 command is not working properly. https://3.bp.blogspot...

Re: Eagle, pcb to g-code, Mach3 and Autoleveler

Well there is probing because zero tool works. This means feedback from machine z-axis is getting to Mach3.

Re: Eagle, pcb to g-code, Mach3 and Autoleveler

Its USB. And this Mach3 I have seems altered by cnc manufacturer. As far as I know Mach3 is for WinXP and Win2000, while I'm running it on Win7 32-bit. So someone altered it to work with USB port and custom made USB stepper& spindle driver in control box. I guess you'll say AL won't work with USB. I...

Re: Eagle, pcb to g-code, Mach3 and Autoleveler

After trying several times I got RPF file but it contains repeatly same three numbers. Every row is repeated. These numbers are, as it seems to me, absolute machine coords at some point.

Re: Eagle, pcb to g-code, Mach3 and Autoleveler

OK, thanks. Now there's another problem. I did like you told, generated RPF text file, but for some reason it was uncomplete and caused AL to stop responding. I had to kill it. And after restarting AL now I cannot open OGF file. Clicking on Load OGF icon nothing happends. I tried reinstalling Java b...
