MachMotion Plugin Data Logging
Description of the problem:
Instructions on how to enable data logging with the MachMotion plugin.
Solution:
To be able to use data logging you first must have MachMotion plugin version 4.18 or later.
To set it up in Mach3:
- Go to PlugIn Control->MachMotion Config->Special Functions
- There is a check box for "Enable Debugging." This will turn on the data logging
The logs will be stored in
C:\Mach3\Data Logs
. The data files are organized by date and by profile used. The data log collects values sent to the status bar. The rate that it updates is a little slow though. So if the status bar changes values quickly it will often miss messages.
