Hi, I’m building a xy frame which has no Z axis. I’d like a gcode sender which doesn’t have a Z axis in the interface. All I need is X and Y jog controls, home, zero (xy), emergency stop and the ability to load and run gcode. I’ve seen the Chrome extension which would do if I knew how to modify the interface. can anyone here help with this sort of thing? the XY frame is for holding and moving art work for photography.
if the controller does nto have a Z it will just ignore Z commands,s o if the Z byuttons are pressed, nothing happens.
Thanks, yes, I’ve just been trying that out. It’s ok but I would like to hide the Z control buttons as they are not needed.
Do you have any coding skills? Javascript in particular? Getting started with Javascript Macros in CONTROL / Library of Macros created by the community - is an option you can play with if you do
If you did, you could have used a JS macro to hide Z elements (DRO, buttons, etc) on startup. You'll have a hard time finding something "off the shelf" with just X and Y. Good luck
