    Does Mach3 support an IF or GOTO commands?

    Hi,

    For testing a variable such as:

    If #2=5 G01 X2 Y2

    or Goto ?

    Thanks,

    Alan

    No, but you might be able to do it with some workarounds. You can create custom M codes with VB code that can do it.

    Or you can do it with mach3 brains. but it's like ladder logic programming. Also it might have some limitations and I don't have much experience with this.
