Re: controller inputs

Hello,

I thought G04 at first also; But in re-reading his message; he's
looking for an input that will stop program execution whilst siad
input is active...

There is an input on mach designed for the enclosure which will stop
program execution upon activation; but I don't know if it
automagically re-starts whenthe input state changes or if yo have to
press cycle start. (I'd expect the latter.)

Also, it appears Alan is working with his own controller software and
is looking for a "typical" code to use?

Alan, often these will be an M code, with a description such as: "wait
until input goes hi" etc.

As far as I know, there isn't really any universal G or m code (de-
facto or otherwise) that results in stopping program execution whilst
activated.

Hope this helps,

Ballendo
