Pausing motion to allow torch to start
Posted: Fri May 04, 2018 5:32 pm
Hi All, NOOB here although I built my machine over a year ago.
This might be my first post and if not its my first in a long time.
I have built my own table, 48x48 Mach3 Sheet cam and tinkering with inkscape. I have a floating head that I have built and it works pretty well i guess
I have a new plasma cutter(Forney) and its not CNC ready but I do have it configured to fire the torch, but it fires after the motion has already started. Is there something I can do to delay the motion a couple seconds til the torch fires?
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Henry
