I did not look hard but did not see an on/off tab for incremental jog. just picked up a carve king. nice little machine. I do need a 4th axis please . using aspire & fusion 360 depending on the draw. both apps post nice. enough with the rambling. good to be here.

What are you using for your G-Code sender?

Hey. Do you mean that it is switching to G91 (incremental mode), or do you mean incremental versus continuous jog?

I'm not aware off hand of machines that do a continuous jog with this firmware. I feel like I've seen some before, but I don't venture far outside of UGS these days.
What kind of Mazaks are you running, just out of curiosity.

candle does but looks like its abandoned. very nice UI. see where I changed step to continuous. it does work with the machine. Attachments:

this is better yet GRBL and has continuous jog, full simulation, other goodys and you can add machines. ill adapt this. Attachments:

Interesting program, 3d simulation with g-code sender. If I need to jog I just set it to 1mm or 10mm and push the button several times until I get it were I want it. Can't press it too many times at 10mm. It might crash, and there's no way to stop it.

GRBLGRU runs the mill excellent. Full control of the machine incremental and continuous jog. Keyboard or arrows. Much faster load, zero and roll. Very nice UI. So Aspire + GRBLGRU and I'm good to go👍

So you can run a simulation of the program and then switch to sender mode and send the G-code to the Arduino/CNC Shield?
