Greetings,
When executing a post or cutting sequence, as the X4 is cutting I can over-ride the spindle speed, but can not over-ride the ipm. Is the ipm locked in Mach3 during a cutting sequence?

Post the first 30 or so lines of you G-code for us to see.
It should work, but G93,G94 and G95 are possible culprits.
:confused:
Here is a sample program....
Thanks for you help...

Bump.
I still can not increase or decrease my feed rate when a program is running. Any suggestions would be very helpful.
Regards.
Dennis Paish
What version of Mach3? You should be able to adjust it any time.
Greetings,
It sure would be a nice feature if it would work!
My mach 3 version is R4.042.029
Any advice would be very helpful.
Dennis
Greetings,
Same Issue. Maybe Syil Engineering Support can help.
Bump.
Dennis
Syil has nothing to do with this.
On mach3 go to config>general config and check NO FRO ON QUEUE on the rightmost column. It enables changing feedrate while machining. The change will happen after the mach3 look ahead buffer empties, on a CAM file this is almost instantly.
Pablo
Thanks for your help. I will try your solution tonight.
Dennis
Good tip @PEU
Its has bugged me for a while, but lived with it, now I know how to do it, I have added it to my MACH manual.
:cheers:
