Then turn the spindle and coolant back on , next press CycleStart and you should be off and running. With the M01 you can also show a message to remind you why you stopped.
M01(Check Tooling ) When the M01 runs it will display that message in the bottom of teh toolpath display . You can also display a picture M01(nameof pic.jpg) or even show a video M01(nameofvideo.mov) . Here I can also display a text file M01(name of text.txt) but that is not currently available in PP.
Tormach is always looking for usefull functions to add to PathPilot . Yall really need to use the New function request page on the website. IF you don't ask for things you want/need you may NEVER get them. SPEAK UP they won't bite. THE worst they can say is NOPE. And so far hearing that has not hurt me or caused me to NOT eat a cheesburger for lunch........
People were not bashfull of asking for things when Mach3 was king of the hill (;-). It is PathPilot's turn..
