Shark Controler Software?

Post by rapiddawg »

Is there a way to stop the running G-code, shut the comptor down, come back in the morning and then restart at the same spot or a bit before the point it was stopped?

That is a good question. I also would like to know because I have a large file to cut and will take me 12 hrs cutting time. I hope Tim will see this and try to answer this question.

Tried editing the g-code with an M00 and all they other code needed to perform a program stop and continue the machining operation with a short peck drilling TAP file I have. I could not get the g-code to load. Next I just tried inserting a simple M00, that would not load into the controlled program either. This would have worked on my old Fanuc control at work if I were not retired.

Tony, you are going to have to train Ms.Tony to be cross functional and multi-task for the longer cutting time projects.
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Tony, I have recently spoke to Tim, he has said that it is not possible with the current controller.
