Summary

  • In gcodeSpindle for the Makera Carvera Air device profile, the G4 P4000 command was using an incorrect value.
  • The G4 P parameter is in seconds (per G-code standard), so P4000 would cause a 4000-second (over an hour) dwell after spindle start.
  • Changed to G4 P4 for the intended 4-second spin-up delay.

Change

src/kiri/dev/cam/Makera.Carvera.Air.json

-        "G4 P4000"
+        "G4 P4"

Test plan

  • Verify generated G-code for Makera Carvera Air uses G4 P4 after spindle start (M3 S{spindle})
  • Confirm spindle spins up for ~4 seconds before cutting begins

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

G4 P parameter is in seconds, not milliseconds. P4000 would mean a
4000-second dwell; the intended 4-second spindle spin-up delay is P4.
