Re: [Emc-users] Can't control spindle with M3 command
That s00 does catch us all once in a while. Fortunately the S word is modal so you don't have to repeat it each time you use the M word.

Re: [Emc-users] Can't control spindle with M3 command
Yeah...someone suggested that. It worked. I am just using it to activate an air cylinder that drops a spindle down on a 2-1/2 axis machine so any value after the "S" works. I didn't realize that "no value" doesn't do squat. -MJ Emory Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I had the same problem. I tried adding the speed control (S100) to the M# command and it works for me.

Re: [Emc-users] Can't control spindle with M3 command
I had the same problem. I tried adding the speed control (S100) to the M# command and it works for me. Thanks!
