Custom GUI Manual and Automatic mode Power Laser

Hi everybody,

I am controlling the power laser machine with S command. Now I need to can elect between a automatic mode power laser and manual ṕower laser. In Automatic the power that I send of my CAM Software through S Command, and a Manual mode that is a especific power inside my Custom GUI. In Manual Mode the power laser ignore G code of S Command and only set the specific power of my Custom GUI. How I can do it?

In Manual Mode the power laser ignore G code of S Command and only set the specific power of my Custom GUI. How I can do it?

Why not use the output of the GUI to set the S value, then you don't have to do the same thing 2 different ways?

How can I set S command from GUI? If my code G already has S commands...

How can I set S command from GUI?

We have no idea what your GUI consists of.
Read up on halui, you can pass any MDI command simply by activating a pin and can increment and decrement the spindle directly.

If my code G already has S commands...

Not sure what this means.
If you are in manual mode it is irrelevant what S values are set in your G code file.
The next Snnn call overrides anything before it.

I think he means he wishes to run a program so the axes move in auto mode but the laser power will have the option to either follow the S code or follow his manual rate.

If you made a gladeVCP panel with a spinbutton (for manual power rate) and a toggle button (for manual/auto power control selection)
then connect the spindle speed output pin and the spinbutton to an OR component and the OR output to the laser you would have what you want.

Is this what you are wanting?

Is OR component equal to OR gate? OR gate don't admit inputs float. You have the idea of that I want to do. I think that a HAL selector component is the solution. It component exist?

Why not use the output of the GUI to set the S value, then you don't have to do the same thing 2 different ways?

It is not possible because I send different power laser in different layer.

Look a mux2

It is the solution!!! Thanks
