    Delay for scribe

    I added a scribe plate marker to my home built table and I've got it working but I need help with how to put in a path rule. I've just been testing a couple of small circles, one inside the other and my problem is I have to have the down pressure on my slide set so low so it doesn't dig in that it hasn't reached the table before the X,Y starts to move.

    On the small test file I've manually went in and added the G4 delays and it works fine but if I try to make a path rule near pierce it puts the delay in before the M7 code and not after. Does anyone know how to set this up so that the delay starts after my slide and scribe have started automatically?


    Thanks in advance!

    For anyone that finds this down the road with the same issue Tom at CandCNC created the 11N post for the scribe so you can but delays in to compensate for the slow slide reaction.
