Does anyone know the way to use the M10/M11 codes to turn on and off a laser using UCCNC? I have a Garageworx CNC that I've attached a 2.8W laser on the side of the spindle mount and the M3/M5 commands are too delayed. I've been told the M10/M11 codes will fix the delay but I haven't been able to figure out how to adjust the post processor or even edit G-Code to get it to work. Thanks in advance.

They are in the current software. And I was told they are fast as they are precompiled

Run your post. Open in a text editor. Global search/replace M03 with M11 and M05 with M10, save the file, run it.

I couldn't be arsed changing my post so just do this to fettle the g-code before it goes to the machine.

Presumably M11 and M10 work on your MDI page?

Who's software are you using to generate your gcode?

I am using Aspire by Vetrics.

Sorry, can't help (sheetcam for me, nothing fancy)

The other suggestion of find and replace will however work fine

I think dharmic is right, you have to replace all M3 and M5 with M10 and M11.
