M00

[barbter]

Hi Scott,

Ref M00 settings.
We have our preferences set to stop at M00.
When we refresh from the start of a program it does this. However, if we start plot at cursor and animate (ie to verify the second side of a program) it doesn't stop at a M00.
Am I missing a setting?

Thanks,
Terry

Hi Terry,

No, you're not missing something - it will only stop for the M00 during a refresh. The original intent of being able to stop at M00 was to provide a way to keep a program from looping forever when it was run. This is a common problem for programs run on a bar-fed lathe for example where the program simply loops back to the beginning. I'm still planning on making some changes to the plot controls and I'll take care of this then.

Thanks,
Scott
