This maybe simple to solve for some but I know nothing about G&M codes. So here is the need and what I think.
I would like to use a Diamond Drag Bit and need to edit the post processor to keep the spindle from turning on while using this bit.
I think it may be as simple as editing the post processor and eliminating the line that looks like this:
"[N]M03[S]"
Or is their a way to leave the line in but comment it out somehow.
I have attached the post to this file if it needed to see this line.
Just do not want to damage my machine by making a mistake.
Thank you

I guess this should work to comment it out assuming I have the right line selected meaning M03 turns spindle on.

There is a full Post Processor editing guide on the Help menu in Aspire/VCarve/Cut2D.

Re: Laguna IQ Post Processor
Thank you, I did find the document on post editing and now have it printed out and also have commented out M03 and M05 lines. However, I'm having a problem now with the vectric software not recognizing it as a post processor file. I did save it as a text file so I will have to do some research as to why this is happening.
