Home Sw. Safety
Homing mode. When this mode is disabled, the homing process is less restrictive. It
allows for e.g. homing start when an axis is already on the HOME switch. When
homing also LIMIT signals are not taken into account.
With this option selected so-called safe homing is performed, LIMITs are all the time
taken into account, also you cannot start homing when an axis is on a HOME sensor.
Ignore M calls while
Macros ignoring („M" commands) from g-code file when loading. This option should
loading
be activated. Without it when file is loading, a machine may start performing mac-
ros by itself.
Look Ahead
Mach3 performs dynamic trajectory analysis in advance, to adjust motion speed in
every trajectory place. In the „Look Ahead" area, you can enter number of G-Code
lines, which should be analyzed in advance. Usually 1000 value is enough to get
motion smoothness even when dynamic and fast programs are made.
Run Macro Pump
When this option is selected in a catalogue with VisualBasic scripts you can create a
macropump.m1s file, it contains macro, which will be called cyclically several times
per second.

with
The intention of Mach3 authors is an option, which enable/disable slave axis and
master axis
master axis homing together. In CSMIO/IP-S controller, a slave axis is always homed
with master axis.
G04 Dwell in ms
With this option selected a delay parameter for G04 is counted in milliseconds. It is
useful when you need precise, short time delay e.g. in plasma cutters.
Use watchdogs
Do not use – this function should theoretically „watch" various modules of the pro-
gram and in case it should switch an emergency STOP. In practice, it does not work
properly and may cause problems. In CSMIO/IP-S software, there are special algo-
rithms, which autonomously monitor communication and whole control system
work.
CV Control
Parameters for a Constant Velocity work mode. By default, all fields should be unse-
lected. However sometimes CV settings modification is necessary. E.g. if machine
acceleration is low and treatment goes with high speeds then CV mode may cause
that path corners will be rounded. We can set CV mode toleration by selecting „CV
Dist Tolerance" option and entering max. deviation from demanded shape.
Rotational
Parameters in this group relate to angular axes (rotary).
„Rot 360 rollover" determines if there should be rollover after crossing 360 de-
grees.
„Ang short rot. On G0" causes that at inverted G0 move, a rev may be shortened.
So when an axis has at the moment e.g. 320
with 320
„Rotational soft limit" parameter determines if for rotary axes soft limit switches
should be taken into account.
Enhanced pulsing
This parameter does not matter with CSMIO/IP-S.
Screen control
In this group, selection of „Hi-Res screens" and „Auto screen enlarge" parameters
causes Mach3 screen enlarges to fit its size to screen resolution. However very
often an interface is in effect disproportionately stretched and it is better to disable
the functions mentioned above.
