    Run Code at Startup

    As a follow on from my previous thread Is it possible to have Mach3 run some VB code at start up, if so how can this be done. My plan is to use VB code to put the Jog Mode into Cont at start up using OEM245.

    Create the VB macro and save it as an M code, like M700.m1s, in your Mach3\macros\yourprofilename folder.

    In General Config, put M700 in the Initialization string. This will run it when you start mach3 and press Reset.
