    Spindle delay

    I would like to know how to shorten the several second delay in conversational facemill?
    I dont see any P command after the S3 command?
    I am definitely not well versed in G code, nothing I have tried with the P commands changes anything, still have the long delay or it wont accept the command. I need about 2 seconds or so.
    I am facing off wood blocks and the long delay takes a lot of time when facing off several of these.

    any insight much appreciated!

    Re: Spindle delay

    I got around the problem by using the plane op in Sprutcam, does basically the same operation, plus I can set zero at the center of the block instead of the corner (easier for me).
    Shaved several seconds off the machine time.

    I think the setting for the spindle delay must be in pathpilot and not in the conversational facing op.
