Tero & Till,
I have put the files for 5 axes in the CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO dropbox
on Yahoo and will follow up with a 6-axis version soon (as soon as I have
decided what keys to use for jogging the 6th axis!)
These files are for EMC and use 'A' and 'B' for the 4th and
5th axis (the 6th will be 'C')
Jog controls for the 4th axis are Home and End and
for the 5th axis Insert and Delete.
I also had to change Brake-off to 'o' (Brake-on is
Shift-B)
and homing a selected axis to Ctrl-Home
Hope this helps

Subject: Re: 6-axis...6-Axis
interpreter??
Tero, this is something i do not know. i always gave 3-axis
commands for my 6 axes. I am not sure weather the 5- or 6-Axes support for the
command interpreter is already included or if it must get a special flag at
compile-time. R P W might be a good idea to try.These three are Roll Pitch Yaw
(Yaw is not Y because Y is Y). Till Tero Kaarlela wrote:

Subject: Re: 6-axis how can i get
them working? Tero, Joint mode can be selected in the
pulldown-menu. default is axis-mode, i think. I dont have the gui in front
of me, but I think so. You can also choose joint mode with shift-$, i
think. Referencing must be done in joint mode, before transformed
motion is possible. so if you choose transformed motion right away, the
Machine might try to start referencing. at least thats how i interpret it.
Till Thanks now i got all axes home. I had to
change into joint frame mode like you said.There is still one problem.
what letter do i have to use if i want to move axis number 4,5 or 6? Ie.
If i want axis 1 to move to1 i give command G0 X1 but what letter should
iuse for extra axes? (p,w are not working) Tero
