I would like to give you a little apology.
What I myself often recommend to people with questions is to use our own fine SEARCH FUNCTION !!!
I typed in “test fire macro” - and came up with the finest post on exactly this topic - how hard can it be ??? (and the worst part is that I now remember reading it before!)
A little further into the found thread there is a macro which works almost perfectly. I have completed my desired test setup and have been given the information I am looking for. (the result I will show you in another post, a little later)
But one question remains. In the macro, time mode I am limited to “P 9809”, this is the longest time it is possible to use. P9810, for example, performs the macro without any visible time at all, even though in the console everything looks identical.
here the example:
OK
Starting stream
M3
G1 F100 S200
G4 P9810
G1 F100 S0
G0
M5
Stream completed in 0:07
Starting stream
M3
G1 F100 S200
G4 P9809
G1 F100 S0
G0
M5
Stream completed in 0:07
…is there an explanation why the time setting option is limited or is it again just an “error 47”?
Many thanks for your interest and fine help.
