Mach 3 questions

Postby J45on » Wed May 11, 2011 8:57 pm

Ideally when I have finished my 2.x laser (and funds permit ) I will fit one of the currently available controllers
But in the meantime as I am also building a tiny desktop router I will purchase mach 3
I have read the setup guide for mach3 and the 2.X but I am unsure about G code
Is there a post processor for lazy cam that will add the laser on/off commands ?
Or do I have to add them to the code myself ?

I think lazy cam has post processors, but I don't use the program, so I have not made a lazy cam laser post
