Override sources – feed speed and spindle revs corrections source selection
Mach3 software allows for feed speed and spindle
speed change during work. As a standard, it is
adjusted using two sliders and a main screen. If
machine tool were equipped with additional panel
with buttons, it would be easier to adjust the
speed using knobs placed on it. With CSMIO/IP-S,
we can also control feed speed and spindle revs
using potentiometers connected to analog inputs.
In „Override sources” tab you can set whether the speed
adjustment should be done through Mach3 screen, ana-
log inputs or additional MPG encoder axes, etc.
„Feed rate override” applies to feed speed and „Spindle
speed override” to spindle revs.
The following options are available:
Mach
Regulation via PC (slider on a Mach’s screen)
CSMIO/IP AIN 0/1/2/3
Analog inputs of CSMIO/IP controller
MPG AIN 0/1
Analog inputs of CSMIO-MPG module
MPG AXIS 4/5/6
4, 5 or 6 axis of MPG encoder jog (pendant)
For both feed speed and spindle revs speed control we can define digital input of CSMIO/IP, which
will force control from Mach3 screen – „Forced Mach override”. Thanks to this, you can easily and
quickly switch the source of speed defining– e.g. using a switcher placed on a machine’s panel.
