Is there any reason to NOT re-use the same thread slot for multiple functions? For example, I have a program for doing tool changes, and another for doing homes, and another for doing spindle PWM. I don't believe any of these can ever be invoked concurrently, so they can all be assigned the same thread, right?

Regards,
Ray L.

What is the function of Mach3 Plug-in Notify messages 10300(switch to "OL"???), 10301 (switch to "CL"???) and 10500?

I think i started that one. :) It is to switch from Open Loop to Closed Loop (OL,CL)by flipping a manual switch. This allows me to use my mill manually with the screw handles and not fault out Mach3, so to use Mach as a DRO and NOT lose position when i zero an axis.
