Display progress of work on the screen (Syntec 60W-E)
Hi everyone
We got new cnc machine, Syntec 60W-E and its software is very different from Mach3 software. I have been doing a lot of work and have reading pretty many manuals to set it up for my needs.
But I really miss a functionality from Mach3 which displays new message on screen when new toolpath starts running. Can I somehow make it work similar way on Syntec too? I can have like 30, 50 or 70 different toolpaths on work and in case of restart job with less toolpaths its pretty hard to figure out where previous job stopped. Progress information makes it wayyyy much easier.
This functionality probably needs to read toolpath data (or progress number/percent) from NC-file. I thought to use on screen alarm message dialog and I have added line MSG("toolpath"), but it gives syntax error. So this macro codeline looks not working from NC-file ...
Any ideas? The best solution can be displaying progress in the "Working space hint" area (green text area on the Monitor dialog), but warning dialog or other ways are acceptable too.
