Version 2.3015

[ArtF]

Hi All:

  Gearotic and Auggie are updated today. GM's version did not change, only GT2-2 and GT2-3 pulleys are
corrected to match manufactures output specs.

Auggie has had 3d Laser, and DXF modification added. Both will get more powerful over the summer. A help
file is also added. Details are in this video..

Hi All:

  Auggie for this version is now updated to correct power scaling issues. I had
inadvertantly scaled improperly. Also, this corrects a power granularity issue
that may have affected power on slow moves..

Thx

Hi All:

  This is just a stability fix for Auggie..

It is updated to include a host of connection bug fixes, stability fixes and many scripting error
timing calls. Its been run many hours here with little or no problems.

Thanks Art..

The latest Auggie 1.48a will only execute one line of GCode at a time in in GCode mode. The same file in MultiLine-MDI works fine. Tested with 1mmspiral.tap.
If I revert Auggie.exe to version 1.48 and leave everything else untouched, GCode works again.

  Latest version has a new SingleLine mode toggle button which only activates for Gcode. Is your lit by chance?

My apologies, I neglected to include the new run panel with the new button on it.

Till next update, please unzip and copy this into your panels folder, you shoudl then see the new button below
the run button..

Thx

That solved the problem 
First I was sure that I had a script problem or forgot to include a lib, but it was a new hidden button (to me it was hidden)... 

Thanks

Glad I double checked, I remembered at the last moment I had added that. Its one of the great things about Auggie, it doesn't
take me long to add an option I need with the quick addition of a button on a panel and a bit of code internally to connect it.

  Both myself and YaNvrNo have been burning a lot of examples, ( He more than I ) and I (we) owe him a lot of gratitude
for his time and dedication. He's turning out excellent laser work, and has pointed me to more bugs than I can count. Together
we've come up with better power control and a new dithering mode for enhancement options for tonal quality on photo's.
  I have to say at this point Auggie allows me so much more power than I have on my commercial laser Im really tempted
to switch it over as well.

  I have however, just bought yet another laser ( A firestar V40) so I may have to build another machine for it in the future,
perhaps with galvo's for another option of motion control. 


Too many toys, not enough time..

There is never enough time... but plenty of interesting toys... 

I know that Auggie is front end and new features may or may not work as intended. Using Auggie I find small issues here and there, but not sure if you want them reported back and where to put them.
We all benefit from YaNvrNo dedication and the time he has put into testing.

Congratulation on the new firestar V40 laser - it looks great! Easier to control and with high accuracy.
